  • 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

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

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

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

    @btbusinesscare I love the way you’ve got to speak to 5 people and none of them can give you a straight answer on when your connection will be live again. It’s like the secret service having BT as a business provider. Shocking service BT!

  • charming_man_ Tory 1 (@charming_man_) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @bt_uk can we have an update on the outage Middlesbrough TS5

  • 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.

  • 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.

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

    @bt_uk It’s down on all platforms I’m trying to log into except my iPhone which I don’t log out of…

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

    @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.

  • andrew14ad Andrew Davis (@andrew14ad) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @msmith850 @btsport Never in doubt they are back

  • 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…

  • 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)

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

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

  • 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 👏

  • unclenobheadCB Philip Robinson (@unclenobheadCB) reported from Shiremoor, England

    Fully subscribed to @btsport for several years now but I refuse to watch another @NUFC **** show! #bruceout #EVENEW

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

    @btbusinesscare Still no reply or update when our broadband will be back on. Nearly 7 days without a business connection. Let down everyday by BT 🤬

  • 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??

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

    @bt_uk Can you not just get an English person to call me direct to fix this please? I’ve been passed about for 6-7 weeks now.

  • 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 🙃

  • 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?

  • KRISKROS5 Kris Kross (@KRISKROS5) reported from Blyth, England

    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

  • harlotan ✨Charlie✨ (@harlotan) reported

    @bt_uk One of your customer service team is now saying there's no issue with our broadband and this is resolved remotely. It isn't. This is the 2nd time someone has been told to stay home only for nobody to show and our internet is unusable. What are you going to do about it?

  • Dimclem_ 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿Claire🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@Dimclem_) reported

    @bt_uk But that’s not true! As you can see, you have received twitter messages telling you of the issue!! Furthermore, if you had bothered to read my tweet, I told you that I have the latest version of the app installed!

  • SamMorrow94 Sam Morrow (@SamMorrow94) reported

    @bt_uk We've been without internet since around 1.30pm today, have you had any issues in Wimbledon?

  • Randall100 Chris Randall (@Randall100) reported

    @MichaelBensonn @btsport @BTSportBoxing absolute garbage. You’d have done something about it during the presser. You love it, it’s sold more units. You’re hypocrites…

  • _WinterDog Long Trinh (@_WinterDog) reported

    @bt_uk I'll be honest i think that is ridiclouss that i have to wait until Wednesday to get this sorted. I have had the same issues for the past 4 days now. I've had someone come today as well and still have issues. I pay so much for this service, also been a long term customer with you

  • MigryM migry_main (@MigryM) reported

    @bt_uk Looks like a #PHISHING message to me. Never follow ANY link in twitter and then enter bank details. If this is really @bt_uk they are totally stupid to suggest this.

  • bpl1027 Mark Hutchinson (@bpl1027) reported

    going to try and watch the French football tonight wonder if it passes off with no trouble this time @btsportfootball @btsport

  • MarkDev20 MarkDev (@MarkDev20) reported

    @bt_uk one week in and you’ve still not fixed our problem..I’ve sent dm please respond

  • Samjramsay Sam Ramsay (@Samjramsay) reported

    @bt_uk hi can you tell me if there’s a broadband problem in Cheltenham. Have no WiFi connection

  • jamclarkey James (@jamclarkey) reported

    @MattJacobs68 @bt_uk @MoneyTelegraph Yes support should of just said to plug current phone into back of the smart hub 2. Btw have your parents tried that? An openreach engineer isn't likely to be called out for this as they'd just unplug from wall to back of smart hub 2. This is now more IT support that is needed.
