  • baldymanali Alastair Smith (@baldymanali) reported from Gateshead, England

    @bt_uk just received email from you saying my email will be suspended if I don't login. I read emails on your new (and I might say, useless) ap every day. Have complained about it previously. Get it sorted

  • 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.

  • 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

  • JulieGal1234 Julie Gallagher (@JulieGal1234) reported from Longbenton, England

  • 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?

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

BT (British Telecom) Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • tweetymike Mike Stead (@tweetymike) reported

    @bt_uk It was escalated to CEO’s office. An Executive Complaints Team person was appointed. He challenged the lack of service and excess charges, and it went to the Ombudsman. The case manager agreed 100% that I’d been overcharged, but under the regulations he couldn’t order a refund.

  • estherrees1 esther rees (@estherrees1) reported

    @bt_uk Hi. Suddenly got no dialling tone on digital Voice connected handset, and unable to make/receive calls on landline. Just tried to register brand new BT Digital Voice handset, in case it was a handset problem, but new handset won't register... Thanks

  • Janet9998 🕷Three Jabs Janet 💙💙💙 (@Janet9998) reported

    @WellyWilk @btsport Every time. It's poor. So poor. [Same issues for Seville - app didn't boot up successfully until 25 mins in.] And I've only really paid for #BTSport for the month to watch ONE game (lucky enough to attend the home legs), so I missed 28% of my value of the £25. Fuming.

  • JohnOleary83 John O'Leary (@JohnOleary83) reported

    @btsport It is an absolute joke how you can have Carlton Cole as a guest pundit on your shows. Truly awful. We want proper analysis not some fan off the terraces. He is out of his depth. Sorry.

  • jessthecurls Jessica-Kate (@jessthecurls) reported

    @bt_uk Its saying there are no issues but I know for a fact a car crashed into the nearby BT box earlier today but theres been no update to any of us as to when this will be amendes

  • tweetymike Mike Stead (@tweetymike) reported

    @bt_uk So StephenK, it comes down to whether your CEO & indeed the BT organisation have a shred of moral fibre and decency. You overcharged me for four years, the ombudsman and all the evidence from BT/Openreach agrees. But you want to keep my £1200. After I was a customer for 15yrs.

  • TonyChayGray Tony Chay Gray (@TonyChayGray) reported

    @bt_uk what is going on with your customer service. Cuts you off rather than putting me in the queue to hold and speak to someone 😡😡

  • ZenzoNcube16 Zenzo Ncube (@ZenzoNcube16) reported

    @bt_uk Hi am a new customer and I have been waiting for my Internet to be activated all day.Can you help?

  • scoooobs82 WeTheOne’s (@scoooobs82) reported

    Hey @btsport @btsportfootball I would have enjoyed the Rangers game in the @EuropaLeague if it wasn’t for the utter garbage coming out of Stephen Craigen and Rory Hamilton’s mouths thanks for that, is there no other commentators??

  • GarethM0410 G M (@GarethM0410) reported

    Explain to me why the live stream never buffers during the adverts but constantly buffers during the football on @btsport can’t go 2 minutes without it stopping. Waste of money
