    @BTCare @bt_uk hello, hope you can help please? After a 95 minute phone call on Saturday your advisor assured me my problems would be solved by an engineer tomorrow. I’ve had no email or text to confirm this. Please advise.

  • jasonhebron Jase ⚫️⚪️ ♿️ (@jasonhebron) reported from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England

    @bt_uk I’m still down on all platforms (apart from my iPhone which I don’t log out of)

  • jennifercribbes Jennifer (@jennifercribbes) reported from Ashington, England

    Massively disappointed with @bt_uk my mam is in tears with how she has been treated by customer services. Had no phone line for weeks due to a fault then charged loads of timeline charges. Transferred through to a number of staff no one in BT has ever heard of a timeline charge??

  • SmarProcurement David Hall (@SmarProcurement) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    For me @btsport have taken the mantle from @talkSPORT for the worst cricket coverage. Matt Smith is a good football presenter but is clearly not a cricket follower and the commentary they are using from Fox is terrible. If @bbctms can send their to team to Australia why not BT?

  • Raring2goNewcas Raring2Go! Newcastle (@Raring2goNewcas) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Technology… why does it fail when you want to watch live sport? #itv has vanished from our telly. 🙄 good job we’ve got a back up tv with old fashioned aerial. I see we didn’t miss much when trying to retune… #POLENG @bt_uk full package fail again…

  • wilko1999 Angela Wilkinson🍃💚🍃 (@wilko1999) reported from Whitburn, England

    @bt_uk It was not a missed appointment it was a total failure of communication. Someone could have contacted me so I could have stayed at work. Now I have an unreliable service over a Bank Holiday weekend and another planned appt for next Wednesday.

  • andyb7274 Andy Brown (@andyb7274) reported from Bedlington, England

    @MarkMowbrayNE @redvanman12 @bt_uk Its what they're told to do (been there, done it) or were at the time. Probably changed now, but blame process not the poor agent on crap money 🙃

  • neilyboy1919 Neil Summers 💙💛 (@neilyboy1919) reported from Ashington, England

    Now we've lost #Ashes please @btsport put us out of our misery and get rid of Matt Smith, an absolutely awful presenter

  • jasonhebron Jase ⚫️⚪️ ♿️ (@jasonhebron) reported from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England

  • Markberry89 Mark Berry (@Markberry89) reported from Guide Post, England

    @bt_uk internet is the absolute WORST of them all!!!

  • MarkMowbrayNE Mark Mowbray (@MarkMowbrayNE) reported from Blyth, England

    Not only is the @bt_uk wifi poor on my smart hub 2 but the lack of channels available is terrible. BT need to sort this out and expand the available WiFi channel choice to prevent neighbours clashing

  • ChaneyMichael Michael Chaney (@ChaneyMichael) reported from Dunston, England

    @gateshead who do you report vandalism of a phone box to, is it council or @bt_uk can you help? As it is a BT phone box.

  • PapaDodds Chris Dodds (@PapaDodds) reported from South Shields, England

    @bt_uk worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. Week 7, still no line working, 4 engineers, 3 credit checks and 30 false promises to get back in touch. But hey, your still charging me for this.

  • master_debonair Master Debonair (@master_debonair) reported from Boldon Colliery, England

    @btbusinesscare guess what? Promised a phone call 1 hour after I spoke to your team on the phone at 10am and they haven’t rang back. You are exceeding my expectations of being the worst service provider in the UK right now 👏

  • joshybanyard Josh Banyard ⚫⚪⚫⚪ (@joshybanyard) reported from Longbenton, England

    Anyone got a @btsport LOGIN I can borrow for the #nufc match? 🙏🏼 #shybairnsgetnowt

    BT commentator- “ you have to get it on target or you will not trouble the keeper or make him make a mistake” fantastic awareness.... #newcry #btsport #NUFC

  • PierreStapley Pierre Stapley (@PierreStapley) reported

    @bt_uk Every time there is a power cut in my area the internet goes down for THREE days. Why does it take so long to fix? I work freelance from home and lose money. This has happened 3 times this year!! Rural areas always go to the back of the list!

  • flyfats37 Scott Jones (@flyfats37) reported

    Another terrible night's service from @bt_uk buffering during the football..I counted 15 breaks in signal in 4 minutes, making it unwatchable..pay good money for this crap. Can't wait for our contract to be up, as won't be staying with them
