  • AdvancedIFA Advanced IFA Ltd (@AdvancedIFA) reported 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????

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

    @bt_uk The Internet connection on your mobile network here in Stanley, Co. Durham is abysmal.

  • Geordie_Shaun shaun (@Geordie_Shaun) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @Cazza7 @btsport That’s crap. 🤬

  • gerrinnesmac Gerry1nnes (@gerrinnesmac) reported from Peterlee, England

    @bt_uk Tweets are nice but I don't understand how you're in business! I've tried 7 times over three days to call you and you never ever pick up! Just a constant recycled message about being busy! If you can't handle busy you shouldn't be in business.

  • PHoare1963 Dr Peter Hoare ⌬ (Ph or pH? 🤔) (@PHoare1963) reported from Sacriston, England

    @PaulCaden1 and the students home Wi-fi likely no better either! I’m having to drive into work any day I am delivering online outreach presentations to schools or at online conferences as our home Wi-fi is so poor.....😳 @bt_uk?

  • stevewallwork Steve Wallwork (@stevewallwork) reported 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.

  • 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!!!

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

    @bt_uk And I NEVER get 4g. Lucky to get 3g!

  • kphilchris Karen Brown (@kphilchris) reported from Ouston, England

    @BTCare I have an ongoing issue with my broadband I've been in touch a few times now, I've done as instructed & have plugged an ethernet cable into my laptop. I'm trying to watch a programme through the BT box on i player and it is just buffering all the time this can't be right

  • kennydude Joe Simpson (@kennydude) reported from Seaham, England

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

  • DanielJenks89 Daniel Jenks (@DanielJenks89) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @bt_uk I have had issues with my broadband dropping in and out of my devices since that major outage happened on Thursday. I don’t know if anyone else has had those continuous problems during that time?

  • trevstanley Trevor Sharkey (@trevstanley) reported 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.

  • heatherpott heather potts (@heatherpott) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk please can you respond to my complaint ASAP #poorcustomerservice

  • baldymanali Alastair Smith (@baldymanali) reported from Gateshead, England

    @bt_uk just received email from you saying my email will be suspended if I don't login. I read emails on your new (and I might say, useless) ap every day. Have complained about it previously. Get it sorted

  • gman_hughes 🐢gman scouser Hughes 😬☠️ (@gman_hughes) reported from Ryton, England

    @bt_uk @CattleprodSub @Se2n22 We got BT and ours seem to be slow , is this BT saying we need to up grade to faster internet, hmmm 🤔

  • lornafaym lornafay (@lornafaym) reported 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.

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

    @bt_uk Do you think you could address the problem of your BTtv EPG in relation to entries by @DiscoveryUK. Entries misleading in time, length of prog, capital letters, no synopsis and unable to "record the series". Do you care?

  • timhardinguk Tim Harding (@timhardinguk) reported from Whitburn, England

    @bt_uk The most inept company in the UK, call yourselves a communications company ! you couldn’t connect dots on a dot to dot child sheet let alone connect a new build property, customer for over 29 years! useless

  • QlikStu Stuart Wannop (@QlikStu) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk Just upgraded to fibre 500, getting 120mbps on average. Slower than my previous BT package. Been told speed cannot be accurately measured into my hub. Still in cooling off period anything else I can try before I cancel it ?

  • fastfastmike Mike Ryan (@fastfastmike) reported

    @bt_uk 5g is now available in my area but I can't have it as I'm in a handset contract and need sim only. £500 to cancel early to get this is appalling

  • chriswatson187 Chris1878 (@chriswatson187) reported

    @btsport commentator at it again. " #Leeds currently beating one of the #Big6 " Just drop this meaningless ****.

  • fordytrainman Fordy (@fordytrainman) reported

    @gimme_shelter20 @bt_uk @bt_uk appalling customer service, 82 year old Father inlaw duped into longer contract after 5 years with them. And want over £300 to be released. This is abuse of the elderly, avoid these cowboys like the plague

  • gfrancie gfrancie (@gfrancie) reported

    @bt_uk We don't have internet because your folks came out to switch the lines again b/c someone else had the bad line. It is raining and it doesn't work w/the faulty line. Your company needs to install another box in my village so everyone has a good line.

  • gfrancie gfrancie (@gfrancie) reported

    @bt_uk No one can come out until Monday to fix this. I work from home so your faulty infrastructure impedes upon my work. (esp. as I can't work in a cafe as there is a pandemic.)

  • salodge10 Scott Lodge (@salodge10) reported

    None of you ever analyse hojbjerg, he has been so poor for so long, his mistakes far outweigh his good points, most notably when dier tells him to mark bamford moments before he scores, then his work rate to get back for the 3rd goal, so poor, @rioferdy5 @mrjakehumphrey @btsport

  • fordytrainman Fordy (@fordytrainman) reported

    @bt_uk @CharlieRiggall @bt_uk appalling customer service, 82 year old Father inlaw duped into longer contract after 5 years with them. And want over £300 to be released. This is abuse of the elderly, avoid these cowboys like the plague

  • kasima5016 Kasim ali (@kasima5016) reported

    @bt_uk your broadband has to be worst iv ever had to deal with! Always dropping

  • gfrancie gfrancie (@gfrancie) reported

    Attempting to figure out the problem with @bt_uk and @OpenreachHelp and the real truth is they need to put in another box. All they ever do is switch wires about so someone else has the bad line.

  • gfrancie gfrancie (@gfrancie) reported

    @bt_uk What can we do about providing compensation to the village as we all pay a considerable amount of money for a product that doesn't entirely work. Every week your company is sending someone out to to give someone else the bad line. Why not save time/energy w/another box.
