    The fake crowd noise on @btsport for #AVLLIV is absolutely awful

  • larmour_andre
    Andrew Larmour (@larmour_andre) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @ChampionsCup @UlsterRugby horrible statement. You’re so in hock to tv companies. It’ll be 13c on Sunday, raining, thaws the pitch. Match played Sunday evening or Monday. But of course won’t suit @btsport will it.

    Corey Davis (@sevenofdays) reported from Carrickfergus, Northern Ireland

    @bt_uk Hi Rita, I was quoted that this could over a week for the planner to arrive but no time frame given for it be fixed. Issue was originally raised on the 11th November and then incorrectly closed on BT side, still no ETA for resolution and having to use mobile data for a connection

    Is there a worse customer support service than the one from @bt_uk @BTCare ? #BTDontCare

    @bt_uk having problems with my bt sport and sky sports channels. I have reset box etc. Internet connection good.

  • internetsense
    Philip I Wilson (@internetsense) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Read the replies (this is simply awful) shameful response. Just the £7 Billion in their coffers. #talktalk and #BTSport also awful with their responses.

    Robert McCausland (@robertmcc) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @bt_uk as a BT Broadband customer can you confirm how many devices are supported on Norton Security. I appear to be restricted to two devices, I previously thought it was 15.

    Maurice Brown (@MoBoDrums) reported from Whiteabbey, Northern Ireland

    How on earth do you cancel @btsport online? You’d expect company’s to make it difficult to cancel but this seems an impossible task!

  • mahaff1977
    NM (@mahaff1977) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @BTCare is there something wrong with the signal on the bbc for the football ? Continually freezing black screen as well

  • scullionoflarne

    @tiff_tv @OfficialWRC @btsport The WRC commentary is usually pretty poor too. They never seem to know what's going on.

    @bt_uk losing my job, struggling to pay bills and have appointment for an emergency brain scan tomorrow. are one of your belfast employees going to take me to my appointment??????

  • bndouglas
    Brian Douglas (@bndouglas) reported from Bangor, Northern Ireland

    @bt_uk I might add that my house doesn’t work without internet; I’m not just being a diva, it’s a real problem. No internet means no heat, limited burglar alarm (people in my neighbourhood are trying doors) etc. I’ve managed to cobble together something with a 4G giffgaff dongle

    Andrew McCullough (@AndrewMuckaluck) reported from Antrim and Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    @meghezzi @daveivermee @sambuzz90 @Sam_I_Rees @RobertIvermee @Glenavon_FC Someone needs to make this top quality football more accessible to public, I’d say! Remain much-miffed @btsport have never broadcast a game from Northern Ireland. I might write to Guy Verhofstadt - should be another facet of the backstop for me. Am #DanskeBankPrem

    @bt_uk Jordan on your customer service team needs a pay rise after having to deal with customers like me 😂😂 Great guy

  • PhilPatterson2
    Phil Patterson (@PhilPatterson2) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    To make matters worse I’ve just received a call intended from @bt_uk for “Mr Ray Moreland” commiserating with me on my divorce and credit problems, but asking me for £86. Consistent lies and incompetence, now a GDPR breach. P.S Sorry to hear Ray 👍

  • PaulReid74
    Paul Reid (@PaulReid74) reported from Dundonald, Northern Ireland

    @Paul__Buckle @DannyCowanVO @bt_uk @Plusnet I've been with Plusnet for several years now too, never had an issue (touch wood)... only issue was @BTCare refusing to believe that I had actually left them, and sending me emails threatening to cut me off, and telling me I owed them money for a service I was no longer getting.

  • No1Ghirl
    DefCon5 (@No1Ghirl) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @bt_uk Took a day off work yesterday for engineer to connect my broadband. No show. When I phoned customer services to complain I was told there was an issue and someone would call to update me today. Just got a text to say I won't hear anything until tomorrow. Not good enough.

    @KezRandle @btsport Damn !

  • phillipkerr79
    phillip kerr (@phillipkerr79) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @bt_uk It’s fine I understand there obviously is no loyalty with bt to customers or common sense used Regret advising my partner took out a bt contract and will cancel as soon as it is possible The same applies for my ee contract Have a good day

  • stevenburns89
    Steven Burns (@stevenburns89) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    I don’t mind @btsport but ever since it’s inception, their inability to find a co-commentator for football has been awful. From Owen to Jenas and McManaman in between, they have never had a @GNev2 or @Carra23 to call upon #TOTMCI

    Gavin Cook (@gjc_cook) reported

    @bt_uk you’ve sent me a returns label to an email address I don’t have access too. I cba to ring so can we sort it on here please. Also, I’m sure I paid for the equipment when I started the service so why do I have to send it back now?

  • KerZE87
    emze (@KerZE87) reported

    @bt_uk your service in the Deal area has been absolutely appalling the last few days. If my wifi goes down again I’d like money off my next bill if not all of it. Why am I paying £83 a month for a shoddy connection?

  • VaeVix
    Vae Vix 🇫🇷 🇦🇺 🇨🇭 🇬🇧 (@VaeVix) reported

    @grok @bt_uk For ease of use, especially for a low risk case like that, I mean at worst hackers can pay my invoice (cool) or change my plan (less cool but of no interest to them and easily remedied), something like Google validator could be an alternative.

  • goatteeboy
    Ian P (@goatteeboy) reported

    @bt_uk Thanks. It’s working now, would have been nice to see some communication for what seemed to be a widespread outage.

    @bt_uk Please fix the problem with your email. x

  • Simoncitizen
    Simon Smith (@Simoncitizen) reported

    @Alonso_GD Along with everything else. I have had to write to @bt_uk hard copy / snail mail because they cannot resolve issues with my #Landline digitally. However that was posted last #Wednesday 20.05.2026. Given the thousands and thousands of pounds they have extracted throughout my life?

  • AlexaOByrne
    Alexandra O'Byrne (@AlexaOByrne) reported

    @simboman @stokeygurl @bt_uk Could not agree more! During my many calls with BT I’ve been told this is affecting tens of thousands of customer accounts. Waiting for my paper bill for which BT “kindly waived the £3 fee”. Luckily, I’m “out of contract” and hence able to move to another provider.

  • 88ejackson88
    Emma (@88ejackson88) reported

    @bt_uk Internet cut out last night. Router is blue but says no Internet connection, struggling to even use phones on 4 and 5g and all other devices and gaming consoles not connecting. Its been rebooted and factory reset, help please?

  • Dajamaky
    Dave Tyrrell (@Dajamaky) reported

    @bt_uk are absolute *****. After 10 yrs of patchy WiFi we’ve made the move to another provider. 1 week before switch off they have turned off our WiFi . Thanks for nothing, mediocre pricks. I won’t hold my breath for a refund as I have long experience of your “customer service”

  • UppaRocket
    Rocket (@UppaRocket) reported

    @bt_uk can't get into my account ever since you updated your system, so my bill is now overdue due to your issues
