    @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.

  • Sandancer60 Dave Miller #ButcherXiJinping #BBCFakeNews (@Sandancer60) reported from South Shields, England

    @MSANNCOOPER @jojojoheeley @bt_uk Ring #BBCFakeNews. Im sure they'll be able to help you out. Don't waste your time ringing. Don't pay the bill if you don't owe it. Let them take you to Court: they'll lose.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • timlibrarian Tim Fowler (@timlibrarian) reported from Bearpark, England

    @bt_uk Hi, no, it’s not a new build. Engineer visited before Christmas and was able to activate broadband but not phone service due to a fault in the junction box. Order number is VOL013-439847322595

  • Andymorris74 Andrew Morris ⚽️ (@Andymorris74) reported from South Shields, England

    How about @skytv giving movie channels for free across all platforms @virginmedia @bt_uk and help keep people at home! Come on, do your bit Sky TV 👍

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • vikkilg Tori (@vikkilg) reported

    @bt_uk Gerard and Andrew in the connections department refuse to let you speak with a manager or supervisor to raise a complaint. You service is absolutely terrible and your staff are laughing about it!!!!!

  • atiyehk Atiyeh Kandevani (@atiyehk) reported

    @btbusinesscare @CareHarmony What is that we need to do for a BT line to work! ? One week and still awaiting a solution? How can a business survive like this ?

  • iHarlandos 🍍🦕 AJ Harland. 🥁😇 (@iHarlandos) reported

    Hi @BTCare - stop making #Paula feel so bad. If she has shonky broadband then she can just get a LAN cable for her laptop, plug it straight into the router and she’s away. No more ***************.

  • bloody56 John Blood (@bloody56) reported from Clifton, England

    @bt_uk Hello, BT here. We're sorry it's taking longer than we thought to fix your fault. The engineers need to do some further work on your line and this is scheduled for 21/01. We'll be back in touch on 23/01 with an update. What time today? VOL013-555360829507

  • thebishop23 Karl Bishop (@thebishop23) reported

    @bt_uk Please escalate and confirm that action. Also provide me with an email to make a formal complaint about the order and this subsequent exchange.

  • jessicatamman Jessica Tamman (@jessicatamman) reported

    @BTCare hi! We’ve received several calls recently with regards to disconnecting our landline and internet connection. This is most certainly a scam as it’s automated. I have the number it’s been called from this time. Can you help?

  • dvernalls Dave Vernalls (@dvernalls) reported

    @bt_uk DM sent to be clear the agent that eventually dealt with it was great but in 2021 it shouldn't need a phone call for an existing customer to get the best renewal deal. Letter offers weren't available online and call centre wait was 30 minutes.

  • RayGrant2000 Ray G (@RayGrant2000) reported

    @BenDavison_ @btsport @TheNotoriousMMA Proper 12, pour it down the sink. Poor quality blended whiskey.

  • thebishop23 Karl Bishop (@thebishop23) reported

    @bt_uk I’m sorry I am not happy with this outcome - it’s poor service and as you say you are hiding behind a lockdown that was already in force when you took the order and arranged the date. Ref to UK lockdown is inaccurate and inappropriate.

  • GymSim Gymsim (@GymSim) reported

    .@bt_uk had Smart hub 2 installed yesterday for super fast fiber broadband. It doesn't work! have nothing. We don't get how signal here either. Called BT, engineers don't work weekends. Left us dead in the water. Should never have stayed with BT let alone upgraded
