  • taylersant Tayler (@taylersant) reported from Newburn, England

    @bt_uk have been waiting three weeks for our internet to be installed, nobody turns up for appointment today, ring up to be spoken down too and told nobody was booked in so I need to rebook!!!! Worst customer service ever and having a nightmare before we even get our broadband!!!

  • lornafaym lornafay (@lornafaym) reported from Seaham, England

    Absolutely shocking customer service from @bt_uk this morning. Glad I was already calling to cancel but being ranted at, demanded to re-consider and called crazy just put the nail in the coffin.

  • 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?

  • timhardinguk Tim Harding (@timhardinguk) reported from Whitburn, England

    @bt_uk The most inept company in the UK, call yourselves a communications company ! you couldn’t connect dots on a dot to dot child sheet let alone connect a new build property, customer for over 29 years! useless

  • 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.

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

    @bt_uk internet has been on and off all day. You say nothing wrong with the line but a quick search says loads of people having problems with their internet.

    Tuchel has been in England for about 13 mins.. BT Sport all over him being complacent now because Chelsea have gone behind for the first time since he’s come in! English media are actual rat bags! **** off For the record.. I hate Chelsea #BTSport #SOUCHE

  • mattlc180 MLC #PubsMatter (@mattlc180) reported

    Joe Cole with another ****-up regarding Minamino. Says he "showing form he did in Bundesliga" despite never playing in Germany. Yet people won't be calling for him to be sacked as he's not female and/or ethnic minority. #btsport

  • smjd1401 smjd1401 (@smjd1401) reported

    Your box is coming back in pieces you utter **** ***** @bt_uk

  • GilesMoore Giles Moore (@GilesMoore) reported

    @btsport when are you going to fix your smart TV app so it won't buffer? 60 meg connection and it buffers every couple of minutes. It's a well known issue so please don't try and fob me off with the usual "self help" steps. Netflix and Prime can both deliver a smooth 4k service.

  • pgooner2 pgooner (@pgooner2) reported

    @btsport do you actually listen to what peter Walton says ? He makes this **** up as he goes along ! “VAR only watch these tackles in real time and only use SLO mo for the point of contact “ absolute bull 💩💩💩💩

  • HannahFraser4 Hannah Fraser (@HannahFraser4) reported

    @bt_uk our internet is down..... again! I e only just had one of your engineers come out and fix it! Really not impressed!!!
