  • 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?

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

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

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

  • 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 👍

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

    @bt_uk My broadband has been off for over a week now.. ive spoke to 4 advisor's and had 3 engineer's out. One of the engineer's lied and said i wasnt in when i spoke to him at the gate. Very poor service!!!!

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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 🤔

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

    @bt_uk As ive said i will never have anything to do with bt again

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • andydeltic andy (@andydeltic) reported from Gateshead, England

    @bt_uk afternoon folks. I’ve lost connection on my digital phone line. I’ve reset the handset and hub but the issue still exists. Any help would be fab thanks

  • laaurenmoore94 lauren moore (@laaurenmoore94) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Anyone else’s @btsport crashing all the time on bt sport 1 or is mine just bad! 😂😂pointless having it when that’s the main channel 😂😂😂

  • 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

  • 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.

  • birajprajapati Biraj prajapati (@birajprajapati) reported

    @bt_uk Yes, It was a lighting cable issue and BT were waiting for @OpenreachHelp to assign an engineer. I think since it's only one customer that is affected, and since you've already tricked us to joining your contract, we can easily be ignored. Happy to DM my details.

  • LadyChamberpot Laura Chamberlain (@LadyChamberpot) reported

    @bt_uk Fab. What do you mean by "updated the complaint note"? Will anything happen?

  • CaravanNut David Bell (@CaravanNut) reported

    @OneThreeFourTwo @bt_uk Ignore that, you said Three. Appalling Three signal here.

  • TTSMEsupport Toni Taylor (@TTSMEsupport) reported

    @btbusinesscare Me please - I am having incredible problems, dating back to May.

  • David_B235 David(Northwest Lancashire Train Spotting) (@David_B235) reported

    @bt_uk any idea why Wi-Fi in FY5 area is down Internet went off at 2.30pm says maintenance taking place

  • wildkippers Huw Evans #Annibyniaeth 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 #FBIW #FBPE #FBPPR (@wildkippers) reported

    @bt_uk It's the 8th day after the min hub was to have been delivered as the immediate solution as per our agreement with BT to maintain a semblance of broadband service. Our broadband has now been restored. The failure of DPD is a BT failure as they are your agents - they work for you

  • CaravanNut David Bell (@CaravanNut) reported

    @Tedisiek @bt_uk That’s what I thought. Nothing is ‘slow’ right now with 50mb, but for 18p more a month it seemed daft not to. We don’t stream 4K as our old Pioneer TV is 1080p and old mkii Chromecast.

  • micsim35 Michael Simms (@micsim35) reported

    @bt_uk Yeah, there's an engineer coming tomorrow now. They factory reset the router and it made no difference, they think it may be surge damage from a recent power outage but I'm not entirely convinced but will wait and see anyway before raising a complaint as they also suggested.

  • Timbo157 Tim Jones (@Timbo157) reported

    @bt_uk READ THE MESSAGES!!!! BT WAS TOLD THAT WE HAD NOT RECEIVED IT AND YOU HAS THE CONTROL TO NOT TURN IFF THE EXISTING SERVICE - EVEN IF YOU CANT MANAGE TO GET A ROUTER TO US!

  • HurrellDonal Donal Hurrell (@HurrellDonal) reported

    @btbusinesscare been trying since Feb to get internet sorted for my business. £4k later for a private line, still not working. Terrible customer care on phones. Losing lot of money due to current set up with BT being so weak. Busiest time of year about to start & still no help
