    @Gaz_House @btsport Or you could go down the night before. 😉

  • TVBCJonpaul Jonpaul Heron (@TVBCJonpaul) reported 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.

  • JohnRobson18 John Robson (@JohnRobson18) reported from Wallsend, England

    I predict spurs to lose 5 -0 they are awful. @btsport

  • SunderlanDave Dave Lee (@SunderlanDave) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @btsport Steve McManaman has to be the worst co-commentator in the history of co-commentators #LIVBAR #ChampionsLeague

  • John_P_Turner John Turner (@John_P_Turner) reported from South Shields, England

    @bt_uk Queried business bills, however, billing team are unwilling to discuss/explain the issues raised. Service has now been suspended and billing team refusing to engage without payment being made. This is nothing short of blackmail! @MoneyTelegraph @TimesBusiness

  • mulcs85 John Mulcahy (@mulcs85) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @IamAustinHealey @Saracens @ChampionsCup @leinsterrugby @btsport Congrats Saracens - but some serious self evaluation needed by Leinster - not why we lost but reffing of offside and breakdown was a bad joke - really has to be addressed - laws already there - enforce them

  • JPaulGreen John Paul Green (@JPaulGreen) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @BTCare Line has dial tone but crackles and hub light orange. It's deja vu. Doesn't seem to happen as often as it did when engineers finally fixed line problem last year, but it's annoying that the crackle has returned and speeds have dipped etc

  • DUDSY31 BRYAN HEYWOOD (@DUDSY31) reported from South Shields, England

    @themichaelowen talking utter fkn shit!!! On @btsport on the other hand @mrjakehumphrey talks total sense! #nufc #newcastle #toon

  • JPaulGreen John Paul Green (@JPaulGreen) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    Still paying for @bt_uk @BTCare and get getting less than full service and yet to be compensated for the hell that was BT between Aug and end of October. 2019 now and can't hear people speak on a landline @Ofcom

  • liamlcg MrGrumpy.....Y.N.W.A (@liamlcg) reported from Murton, England

    @bt_uk ...... Your wifi is shit

  • MbShizzzle MBShizzzle (@MbShizzzle) reported from South Shields, England

    @SFC_Kristian @btsport @mrjakehumphrey He mate. He literally sounds gutted about the goals! Biased as ****

  • Keithr10 Keith Robertson 🤦🏻‍♂️ (@Keithr10) reported from South Shields, England

    @rioferdy5 is a patronising prick “have to have played the game” it’s only bellends who’s argument has been lost who state shit like that, absolute ******* of a man #btsport #THFCVCITY

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk Extremely dissatisfied. I've just moved, trying to get landline and broadband at my new house - promised for Monday 2nd, got landline on Friday 6th but still no broadband. Lots of excuses, might possibly be sorted on Thursday 12th. Very poor service.

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

    @bt_uk The automated 'check my line' service isn't finding the fault.

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

    @bt_uk The light doesn't seem to change colour - yes the service is dropping out - I feel that there is either a degradation of pair quality or faulty termination equipment in the cabinet or exchange - there is definitely an issue.

  • SunderlanDave Dave Lee (@SunderlanDave) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @mickskehan @Julieat30 Our coverage in the UK went off air with 1 minute of injury time to go ... No apologies at all **** you @btsport @btsportfootball

  • 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.

  • JPaulGreen John Paul Green (@JPaulGreen) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @BTCare ah we are back to lousy phone line and intermittent access to internet again. Still at least BT closed my complaint. Not happy.

  • PHoare1963 Dr Peter Hoare ⌬ (@PHoare1963) reported from Sacriston, England

    @BaseballBrit @btsport @MLB @Twitter To be fair @btsport are better than most other channels - usually two games a night on their ESPN channel. Too many Yankees and Red Sox games though and not enough @Rockies! @MLBTV just as bad - not equal coverage of all teams....🤔

  • xToonsend Dominic Townsend (@xToonsend) reported from Washington, England

    The only negative thing about watching this cracking Toon win is having to listen to that **** Michael Owen chat shit after it #NUFC #btsport

  • BAMADF debi fry 💙 (@BAMADF) reported

    @bt_uk Been trying to get a fault fixed on my elderly father's not working phone since 5th July. Stuck in a loop of text messages saying an engineer will call and nothing happens. How do I get the fault fixed please!

  • Littlebirds00 J E Eckford (@Littlebirds00) reported

    No service this morning @bt_uk - it’s like loss of oxygen. Everything has come to a halt.

  • yeldarbneeks bobske (@yeldarbneeks) reported

    Hi @bt_uk my broadband’s gone down but the app seems to think everything is fine. Is there an issue in the DH6 postcode area?

  • bigfishgd Omoa Gallavanter (@bigfishgd) reported

    @bt_uk You have all my details. I had to work a day and a half to pay your organisation for a bill I should never had in the first place, hope your customer service handler is pleased with herself.

  • RadhikaR16 Radhika Raghunath (@RadhikaR16) reported

    @bt_uk Appalling service. Home move booked 2 weeks ago. Engineer didn't turn up but signed off job as completed. Another appointment booked on complaining but apparently no Engineer assigned by open reach!! Booked another one today, waiting! @WeAreOpenreach

  • chris_wilks2 Chris Wilkins (@chris_wilks2) reported

    @btbusinesscare Is there anybody that works for BT business that isn’t completely ******* useless. Up to 4 weeks now and spoken to about 20 people that we’re going to “sort the issue” we have 47 open orders and want this sorted. #btfuckingclueless

  • AdamBrewster1 Quaranteenage Mutant Ninja Turtle (@AdamBrewster1) reported

    Pretty sure it's impossible to cancel my BT Sports monthly subscription online @btsport

  • bigfishgd Omoa Gallavanter (@bigfishgd) reported

    @bt_uk Your organisation BT did nothing to help my situation your primary objective is to maximise profits for shareholders this time at my expense , if an organisation treats customers in this manner think how it will treat you and all other employees .

  • bigfishgd Omoa Gallavanter (@bigfishgd) reported

    @bt_uk BT charged me £120 for a fault they could have resolved, I will let the public aware of these practices via social media, disgraceful way to treat a customer. BT customer complaints dept orchestrated response stone wall customers .

  • EmmaRobertsE17 Emma Roberts (@EmmaRobertsE17) reported

    @bt_uk A fault was raised but engineer missed appointment. No explanation. I was promised someone would call this morning to help. Every time we call it’s a different story. She just needs a functioning phone line!
