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

    @quidco If you could also sort the communication problem between yourselves and @bt_uk that’d be great.

    @bt_uk Listen. It's an ongoing joke. There isn't one company I've worked for where it's not an issue. 30% of my time is dealing with billing. I'll use my account team. Just wanted to vent.

    @bt_uk Hi, I have just had an experience with your customer service, with which I still don’t have an answer, if I can get your fttp services. My new post is DH4 4ZL. Your web site says that your fttp service is available. If someone can help and views this post. Please do

    @bluther123 @neilben10112319 i am only watching the game, no highlights, no build up, no half time banter! @btsport have the worst football pundits in football history! #liverpoolvsTottenham #TOTLIV

  • 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…

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

  • taylersant
    Tayler (@taylersant) reported from Newburn, England

    @bt_uk have been waiting three weeks for our internet to be installed, nobody turns up for appointment today, ring up to be spoken down too and told nobody was booked in so I need to rebook!!!! Worst customer service ever and having a nightmare before we even get our broadband!!!

    As lovely as it is for @btsport too show the #ChampionsLeagueFinal for free but the stream is awful...

  • PHoare1963
    Dr Peter ***** ⌬ (Ph or pH? 🤔) (@PHoare1963) reported 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? 🤔).

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

  • breenster
    breenster & 🐶 (@breenster) reported from Wylam, England

    @bt_uk I have no idea, I just want someone to access the fault that was closed - and reassess, it’s recurred after 14 days of stability I’ve probably been moved back into your faulty network card or suchlike

  • chewytheleftie
    Chris Tindall (@chewytheleftie) reported from Gateshead, England

    @bt_uk the worst service in the UK. I’m still getting bills for a service I stopped in January. Absolutely shambolic. I stopped being a customer 3 months ago yet here I am on hold to BT. What a joke.

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

    @bt_uk you have 45 mins to meet the 10-12 appointment. That I took the day off for. Defo looks like I'm going to be a @virginmedia customer soon.

  • graeme_i_wilson
    Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk I moved house in the last year - previously I had sky DSL - copper only and enjoyed better service - this shouldn't be the case. I have another property with VM Docsis service - again a better service - but your core network was built on low cost - 21CN - poor product choices.

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

  • PatternThimble
    Ceeb 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇦 (@PatternThimble) reported 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.

    @btbusinesscare Currently 2 hours and 13 minutes on the online chat. Now having to wait for another agent. It's shocking service @btbusinesscare

  • WarrenBedeBrown
    WJBBrown (@WarrenBedeBrown) reported

    @btbusinesscare Disappointing to hear you are penalising loyal customers for paying slightly late. Most of the Country, especially small businesses are struggling and yet if you are late with your bill payment, you charge loyal customers £40. Hidden in your T&C's. Terrible.....

  • theGrimey
    Tobes (@theGrimey) reported

    @EE @EE your option here is to escalate this appropriately, such as @bt_uk did historically with a similar issue (and before this godforsaken merger saw such a decline in service quality) - or I shall opt to seek your executives out directly.

  • DMLeighandSon
    D&M Leigh and Son (@DMLeighandSon) reported

    @btbusinesscare It’s ok ,no problem,I’ve managed to sort it .Can get into account now on iPad .Thanks for your help

  • tinnie31
    moz💤 (@tinnie31) reported

    @bt_uk my broadband has been awful for months now, you guarantee 23mb & last night I had 1.8, how is this right when you’re still charging me the same?

  • shaunburnett
    Shaun Burnett (@shaunburnett) reported

    @btbusinesscare Once again I find myself wasting valuable time trying to sort an issue. Your advisers won't talk to me because they say my account name is wrong - it isn't I'm looking at a bill! I want to take all our lines services somewhere else!!!!

  • FranPlimmer
    Francesca Plimmer (@FranPlimmer) reported

    @btbusinesscare @WeAreOpenreach please push for a full resolution today. This can’t carry on. 4 weeks is a joke.

  • LavenderFairy79
    Jill (@LavenderFairy79) reported

    @BTCare can I book a call please? Its regarding a recent service complaint,you didnt uphold your promise and me ending my xontract that ended months ago! You've been charging me twice as much as a new customer for a long time now!

  • jaye_lass
    🐕📚 (@jaye_lass) reported

    @bt_uk Is there an email address as it is an ongoing issue? I dont want to gave to start at the beginning with online chat each time. I need support for calls and last time I was told to just try using less devices. Your engineer confirmed the issue is external.

  • SianyRum
    Sian Rumble (@SianyRum) reported

    @btbusinesscare I am so disappointed with the lack of service I have received. We moved premises on 31/07/25 and to date still no broadband or landline. Disgusting, and you are still charging me monthly which should have been refunded. Your admin is disgraceful also.
