  • chris_jelley Dr Chris Jelley (@chris_jelley) reported from Durham, England

    10+ years (probably more) of being a loyal @bt_uk @BTGroup customer and they couldn’t waive the early termination fee liable because my new move means I can’t transfer the contract to my temporary property. I will never use them again.

  • HarrymBarham Harry Barham (@HarrymBarham) reported 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

  • CraigShitpeas Craig Shitpeas (@CraigShitpeas) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    Rochdale’s 40yr old forward more effective than #Nufc 40million pound one. He is awful. No heart, no touch, no industry just dreadful. Well done #rochdale a deserved payday. They should have won it. They still might! #facup #btsport

    @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.

  • calthomson10 Callum Thomson (@calthomson10) reported from Newburn, England

  • chris_jelley Dr Chris Jelley (@chris_jelley) reported from Durham, England

    A new development on the BT issue. Had a call following my Tweet from a person @bt_uk apologising for yesterday. Early termination fee waived, apology accepted and relationship restored. Both agreed that this wasn’t the way it should happen but impressed with the resolution.

  • LizzieT67208271 Lizzie_T (@LizzieT67208271) reported

    @bt_uk Judging by the replies, it's not just my home affected. Do you have engineers in Maghull currently fixing this issue?

  • Danferg8 Dan Ferguson (@Danferg8) reported

    Day 6 of no broadband, no communication, no feedback and over an hour spent on phone trying to sort it Friday Saturday and Sunday! Any chance of an answer @BT @OpenreachHelp @btbusinesscare poor poor poor customer service!

  • geomac24 Geovanni Van Bronckhorst (@geomac24) reported

    @PrentonTommy @SkySports @btsport As opposed to what? Commentators who've never played the game?

  • HisWayUp Gavin Owen (@HisWayUp) reported

    Nearly seven years with @bt_uk, broadband, TV, phone, mobile. Thousands of pounds paid. But when I call and ask if they could send a loyal customer a Pro TV box to replace my decrepit 2016 4k box, the answer was a firm no. You really don't understand customer retention do you?

  • CraigMiles_ Craig Miles! (@CraigMiles_) reported

    @bt_uk Is there any issues with your services? I've tried to check the service status, asking for a phone number. I don't have one as I went with BT without getting a number. My Ping is very high, my download is okay and my upload is 0.5. I'm paying over £200 a month.

  • KevinWJ6 KJ (@KevinWJ6) reported

    @PrentonTommy @SkySports @btsport Include Tyler in that. Awful commentary.

  • SoapAndSudzUK Soap & Sudz (@SoapAndSudzUK) reported

    So @bt_uk are now charging £39.99 for "... the cost for the delivery of your equipment and activation of your services" just to add BT TV onto our broadband package... they obviously haven't heard about @UPS_UK's £7.99 parcel delivery service... no thanks BT! #BT #ripoffbritian

  • LizzieT67208271 Lizzie_T (@LizzieT67208271) reported

    @bt_uk Maghull, Liverpool is unreal today! My kids cannot get on the Internet to do their homework and I cannot watch anything Internet based. Help us please! 🙏🙏🙏
