  • 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!!

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

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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • cnormand45 Chris Douglas (@cnormand45) reported

    @bt_uk Hello I have tried to call BT to arrange to have my service moved to my new address, unfortunately I spoke to an extremely rude person who was extremely unhelpful. I will therefore be ending my contract on 5th October. I have no doubt I will need to ring to cancel.

  • _Alanstewart97 Alan (@_Alanstewart97) reported

    @bt_uk No but you have closed my complaint without consent so I need to talk about that asap

  • rob_spereall Rob Spereall (@rob_spereall) reported

    @SkyFootball it's ridiculous to advertise showing a @Bundesliga_EN match and failing to commit to that especially at a time when 4 of your channels are taken up by one game that finished in time for kick off. @btsport never treated the Bundesliga like this!

  • Natali3Rountr33 natalie rountree (@Natali3Rountr33) reported

    @bt_uk is there work or issues in G69 area? My WiFi is flashing purple....

  • Barringtonious Barrington Great (@Barringtonious) reported

    @bt_uk Thanks. I’ve read that **** and it didn’t convince me that what you did was anything short of theft. But you have taught me that to maximise the advertised price for a “contract”, you need to take it up around April to avoid too much arse-******* by the Annual Price Change.

  • Daniel_Hunter18 Daniel Hunter (@Daniel_Hunter18) reported

    @bt_uk No Allanah I havent had this issue sorted and I am extremely frustrated! I would like someone to help me asap

  • StephenToner88 Stephen Toner (@StephenToner88) reported

    @bt_uk I know but it's beyond a joke I'm having to use a 20+ ft Ethernet, regardless of the engineer sorting it out on the 21st I will be leaving your service on the 12th of October as I am moving to Virgin on that day.

  • breslinik NBres (@breslinik) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam It's been 4 days without internet now in our flat and @SkyUK still can't even give an estimate for when it'll be fixed? Supposedly blaming @bt_uk saying it's an openreach problem? When will we get internet back? (Glasgow)

  • fpl_4 DontFearThe-4 (@fpl_4) reported

    @Ofcom our 96yr Old Gran has been without a Phone line for a month, The phone line connects her emergency lifeline to the Family as she lives alone. We have had no response from @bt_uk for our request for Welfare case for 3 days despite a promise of 4hour response, the distress..

  • fpl_4 DontFearThe-4 (@fpl_4) reported

    @Ofcom @bt_uk ..is increasing by the day for our gran and the Family, and we have been told it would be fixed only for it to be delayed and still no response to our request for a temporary fix for our Gran. Please help we don’t know where else to turn
