  MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported 6 minutes ago from Chester-le-Street, England

  @bt_uk As I have tried to explain, an update on a possible new start date 10 days after the promised start date really isn't the level of service I expect from BT.

• 
  David Mellstrom (@davidmellstrom) reported 10 minutes ago from Whitley Bay, England

  @btsport @btsportrugby @bt_uk trying to watch Newcastle Falcons v Bristol tonight on BT1, BT1HD and BTUltimate and all BT channels are jumping and stuttering. Is it just me, or is everyone having this problem. It's usually fine. Every other channel is unaffected.

  Ceeb 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇦 (@PatternThimble) reported 15 minutes ago from Cramlington, England

  @bt_uk No. As I've proved all I needed was a new hub. After being a BT customer for 20+ years. I'm looking forward October when my contract finishes. You have a good day.

  Advanced IFA Ltd (@AdvancedIFA) reported 15 minutes ago from Boldon Colliery, England

  @btsport your service is terrible. Got billed £80 asked them to close account. Never watched it since pre lockdown 1 and today another £80 bill. Advised pay it or debt collectors will arrive then dispute it after payment. Very bad service. Still on hold 47mins to disconnect????

• 
  Stephen Davies (@man_of_gwent) reported 18 minutes ago from Harlow Hill, England

  Absolutley shocking customer service from @bt_uk. Left hand not speaking to right hand resulting in my service cancellation. Nothing but issues from start to finish! My advice - steer clear

  Ceeb 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇦 (@PatternThimble) reported 19 minutes ago from Cramlington, England

  When I go to hell. I know what's waiting for me. It's the guys and girls at #BT billing. And I'm destined to unravel the web of **** for all eternity. @bt_uk

  @bt_uk Dropping out, multiple times a day . It started on 1st Jan after 14 days of stability from previous fix.

• 
  Steve Wallwork (@stevewallwork) reported 23 minutes ago from Annfield Plain, England

  @lynseyhipgrave1 @btsport @sjsidwell I think we know the answer to that one Lynsey. Our record is traditionally poor on Boxing Day anyway.

  Dr Peter ***** ⌬ (Ph or pH? 🤔) (@PHoare1963) reported 33 minutes ago from Sacriston, England

  @bt_uk My @btsport picture quality often way worse than this - pixelated and unwatchable with broken up sound. When are you sending me my £100? (and more importantly providing me with a more reliable service? 🤔).

• 
  lornafay (@lornafaym) reported 35 minutes ago from Seaham, England

  Absolutely shocking customer service from @bt_uk this morning. Glad I was already calling to cancel but being ranted at, demanded to re-consider and called crazy just put the nail in the coffin.

  Mark Stokes (@Marksto1983) reported 36 minutes ago from Seaton Valley, England

  Dunno what hurt’s more my eyes watching that awful Spurs performance or my ears from that awful commentary from Martin Keowen #ARSTOT #Spurs #BTSport

  @mrjakehumphrey @themichaelowen @Robbie9Fowler @LFC @LivEchoLFC @TheRedmenTV @TheAnfieldWrap @AnfieldHQ @btsport @ChampionsLeague Not bad when McManaman amassed about 11 of them

  John McLackland (@RiskManager01) reported 44 minutes ago from Walker Gate, England

  @CCriadoPerez @McAfee_Help @bt_uk Although I have never encountered any virus/mail ware problem for any Mac, you should be able to delete MacAfee files from the Library and Preference Folder.

• 
  Trevor Sharkey (@trevstanley) reported 46 minutes ago from Stanley, England

  @bt_uk Yes. The coverage here in Stanley is shocking. Time after time I have to connect to home or McDonald's or O2 hot spot to get Internet when out in Town. Even occasionally got no signal at all.

  @bt_uk PLEASE HELP I haven't even joined you yet (30th) and unable to even activate account...believe me I've had my DOB for 56yrs!!!& 100% know name of my first pet!not impressed!😫

  Jonpaul Heron (@TVBCJonpaul) reported 48 minutes ago from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

  Working fine all day, week and month. Now watching #ChampionsLeagueFinal2019 on @btsport on YouTube and it’s now poor. Very interesting.

  Harry Barham (@HarrymBarham) reported 57 minutes ago from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

  Oh dear @bt_uk… Offered a new contract twice, but my acceptance has been ignored then was supposed to be transferred on a call today but the transfers are broken so was given a direct number…. for the wrong department, who are now panicking because they’re getting random calls

• 
  Master Debonair (@master_debonair) reported 58 minutes ago from Boldon Colliery, England

  @btbusinesscare Why aren’t you dealing with our issue after 6 days without business broadband? Disgraceful service as our business is at a standstill with no replies or urgency!

• 
  Tamara Watts (@timtamw88) reported 60 minutes ago from Blyth, England

  @bt_uk are the most incompetent company. I’m only a month into my contract and I want to cancel already. Terrible customer service, they just pass you to another dept and then your back to the start. I’ve never rang a company so much to get something sorted. #terrible

  jack250213 (@e4290936) reported 35 seconds ago

  @bt_uk calling itself 'customer centric ' grates with me after an internal transfer of my broadband went horribly wrong, then four hard searches on my creditworthiness and three attempts to get BT broadband and a TV package also successfully completed by phone after a time on the phone that I regret all fell through with no explanation or apology. Customer centric? You are having a laugh BT!

• 
  CG2009 🦓🦓 (@CatherineG2009) reported 4 minutes ago

  @btbusinesscare Not helpful really. Any business needing help has to wait for Tuesday. Absolutely useless service. Currently experiencing THIRD week this year of broken service. Bank holiday should be my busiest time, but I’ve had to close. 0/10.

• 
  Paul stagg (@Staggly) reported 5 minutes ago

  @bt_uk @stokeygurl it’s a massive issue they’ve caused know all about - i can’t see bills or sort my wifi out or even renew a contract - so i’m leaving as they have been rude and unhelpful

• 
  Broden 🇬🇧♿✝️ (@Gavtaraysin) reported 6 minutes ago

  @bt_uk I can't get in my account because of your pass code system is sending out multiple pass codes which neither work, and now it says to wait or cancel. Cancelling does nothing to fix the problem. How long do I have to wait until the pass code system resets?

• 
  Vae Vix 🇫🇷 🇦🇺 🇨🇭 🇬🇧 (@VaeVix) reported 8 minutes ago

  @bt_uk Your new "2FA" is completely broken as the phone number is not validated. I was able to connect using a temporary number in Cyprus to get my "security" code... It adds nothing to security.

• 
  Ian Robson (@GFX2001) reported 11 minutes ago

  @bt_uk Pensioner upgrade to Digital but gets free upgrade. Engineer comes and goes. Before two working Analog Phones after one working (same Analog Phone connected to the Hub) second not working (extension). To get two working phones customer must pay extra (engineer + Phone).

  @bt_uk And by the way you're obviously using a bot to reply. So obvious by the language. What real person says You must feel let down for sure

  @bt_uk I must have spoken to at least a dozen guides over six weeks, spent well over 20 hours of my time listening to lie after lie after lie, and crap muzak. Being told that I have informed BT that problem has been fixed three times is sickening. I've got absolutely nowhere. I'm done.

• 
  Jon Chadwick (@JonD_Chadwick) reported 15 minutes ago

  @bt_uk Yes, tried that, doesn't work. That's why I am contacting you? Has BT reached the stage where it simply isn't able to fix basic faults?

  PT (@philltea) reported 19 minutes ago

  Dad's just retired from @bt_uk due to ill health 38 years service. Not a single thank you, good luck or all the best Nothing at all Zero communication regarding help or advice getting his pension sorted and organised Just a random DPD driver turned up for his laptop Shambles
