  • Gfunk_in3D Gfunk_in3D (@Gfunk_in3D) reported from Runcorn, England

    @bt_uk plus, that you’ve chosen to ignore this complaint despite being open since 8am is really annoying!

  • emstoth EMMA STOTHARD (@emstoth) reported from Salford, England

    @bt_uk Thanks - I’ve been sent two though. I need a particular one to work as another is packed away. It’s just constantly showing a red no signal light.

  • Stirling061 Ian Stirling (@Stirling061) reported from Salford, England

    @skysports and @btsport must end their collusion with Premier League clubs to rip off fans by charging £15 to view games during a pandemic. This is a very poor way to treat fans and their subscribers who already pay them large amounts. Play fair with fans.

  • JamieJew590 Jamie Grace (@JamieJew590) reported from Lymm, England

    @bt_uk Service is still running just the cables and poles damaged

  • emstoth EMMA STOTHARD (@emstoth) reported from Salford, England

    @bt_uk I was told when I organised it I would have signal here...I’m only a few miles out of Manchester City centre. Should both mini hubs work regardless, it isn’t just one of the other?

  • JohnMc_91 John McCormick (@JohnMc_91) reported from Widnes, England

  • LiamMelvin92 Liam Melvin (@LiamMelvin92) reported from Manchester, England

    Steve Mcmanaman is just cancer to my ears, how @btsport have not got rid of him yet I’ll never know!

  • TonyHT Tony Hall-Turner (@TonyHT) reported from Bold Heath, England

  • TonyHT Tony Hall-Turner (@TonyHT) reported from Bold Heath, England

  • AskTheShire The Shire (@AskTheShire) reported from Salford, England

  • Shaund442 Shaun (@Shaund442) reported

    @bt_uk @LeahClareLennon Also that's absolute bollocks it runs tests on the line into the house, for many the issue is after this point and the poor distribution in WiFi. BT are a con and I would and will be trying to move my services ASAP

  • RebeccaAnneByr1 Rebecca Anne Byrne (@RebeccaAnneByr1) reported

    @bt_uk No it's to do with external work. The engineer checked if any of our household had displayed covid symptoms and came in wearing his mask. I have now been on hold for 10 minutes trying to speak to someone. This isn't the excellent customer service I was led to believe you provided

  • 1337u53r Praise Mathew Johnson (Mat) (@1337u53r) reported

    @doddsie @elonmusk @bt_uk I think Starlink makes a lot more sense in terms of scalability (for service improvements). Traditional ISPs could be out of business soon when Starlink achieves their 10Gbps target and economies of scale (leading to significant cost declines in the service).

  • isaolinat ooo (@isaolinat) reported

    @bt_uk Yes it’s is bad. How do I am DM you ?

  • robashburn rob ashburn (@robashburn) reported

    @bt_uk broadband service is getting worse by the day...! BT will say I need an upgrade although only did this last year. Embarrassing...!

  • Catherinejourno Catherine Cocklin (@Catherinejourno) reported

    @bt_uk Thank you your reply. We want to cancel the contract. Not start afresh with you. She has done this with her other utilities.

  • JamesLee_97 Jlee (@JamesLee_97) reported

    @btsport I have been charged twice for the UFC PPV and tried to contact you through email as well as the online help chat. I have had no response. Please advise how I can get a refund for the additional payment

  • robmaxey1 robert maxey (@robmaxey1) reported

    @bt_uk hi there. I went for the fibre upgrade a year ago, with the “Guaranteed 46mbs”. I have never got near that. Generally around 27-30. I think I once saw 37. NG13 8TR postcode. Pls advise ? I would have called or emailed rather than tweeting, but not listed on your web page

  • princess_j86 Jazz (@princess_j86) reported

    @bt_uk Hi Sian, I have done. Really hope you or someone can fix this mess. Thank you!

  • pwel11 Paul Welham (@pwel11) reported

    @bt_uk what's happened to your online chat service? Doesn't seem to be an option on any of the Contact Us queries. It's sometimes difficult to sit on hold or talk in an enclosed space
