  • 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

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

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

  • 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.

  • RiskManager01 John McLackland (@RiskManager01) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @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.

  • Hossy93 Joseph Drane (@Hossy93) reported from Brandon, England

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

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from South Hetton, England

    @bt_uk Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree Please fix my broadband just for me I've waited now for many days (17 and counting) Many promises fade in the haze Oh Christmas tree oh Christmas tree Please make my broadband work for me

  • 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

  • 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.

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

    @bt_uk No broadband (now 15 days late), no reasons given why not, no sense of urgency to actually get it sorted. I'm running out of superlatives to describe your dreadful customer service and general incompetence.

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Crook, England

    @bt_uk False alarm, it was a nice neighbour dropping off a Christmas card - I saw an Openreach van down the road and assumed that you had actually done something!!

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

    @btsportfootball @btsport please never ever let John Hartson commentate on your channel again. Ever.

  • 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.

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

    @bt_uk As I have tried to explain, an update on a possible new start date 10 days after the promised start date really isn't the level of service I expect from BT.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @bt_uk And people on Twitter may be looking for a new broadband connection and should be aware of the level of service from BT

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • RobertoMoir Robert Moir Official (@RobertoMoir) reported

    I can’t believe the state of your digital voice rollout @bt_uk @BTGroup. I’m helping elderly family you left without a phone and shambles doesn’t begin to cover it. I’ve worked with IT/voice for years, I’m trained on your systems and it’s still terrible. This is disgraceful.

  • MrJDucky Mr𝐉Ducky Esq. III™👻🎃🦇🏳️‍🌈 (@MrJDucky) reported

    @bt_uk @Steam Is this a thing that can be fixed or would it be a case of capping the download speeds on Steam and hoping it fixes it? Been looking to upgrade as well, but if the whole network is getting knocked down by just steam downloading then I'm not sure if it'd be worth it just now.

  • MarcusRobson2 Marcus Robson (@MarcusRobson2) reported

    @SkySportsGolf if viewing figures and demand are higher for women’s PGA golf than men’s PGA Tour golf, then fair enough, but at least tell us so we can cancel our subscriptions and/or let someone like @btsport take over.

  • GAWE14 Gary Wilson (@GAWE14) reported

    @bt_uk am a BT broadband/Halo customer- do you do a Payg mini hub data sim?

  • Amyyyyyyyyyy_ Amy Graham (@Amyyyyyyyyyy_) reported

    @bt_uk please can someone reply or DM me regarding my broadband issues please

  • dansumption 𝁅Dan Sumption͚͛͛͛͛͛𝀿🥀 (@dansumption) reported

    @bt_uk My problem is that you have sent me an email asking me to call you. Last time you did that, it took 50 minutes and 5 different operators before you found someone who knew what you wanted to talk to me about. Please just talk to me by email, it's so much easier and leaves a record

  • SuggWillSugg Will Sugg (@SuggWillSugg) reported

    @bt_uk hello, I’ve recently upgraded my broadband speed and my halo double data is no longer allocated on my mobile. Please can your help.

  • jeannie_pie Jeannie pie (@jeannie_pie) reported

    @bt_uk Continued. I have now selected London region, but although the serial recording issue sorted, the channel reception from London is bad - hence why I used to use SE(kent) region. I'm NOT happy with this change or the response from BT or Youview

  • khaddow60077 Kiernan (@khaddow60077) reported

    Can’t wait til my @bt_uk service is gone it drops out about 10 times a day!!!

  • drmarkrthomas Mark Thomas (@drmarkrthomas) reported

    @bt_uk really disappointed to have been blocked from leaving BT broadband well outside my contract expiry. To make it worse, I've now been charged for 5 months service I've not used. BT were very unhelpful when I tried to sort this out as a busy doctor working in the pandemic
