  • Stu_Mull_83 Stuart L (@Stu_Mull_83) reported

    @ColCass5 @themichaelowen @btsport Well that’s a load of shite. The whole RM team said they first half was crazy. 2nd half with 0-3 down then it drops of course but nope, not having that. First half bonkers. Ask Rangers what they thought a few days ago getting pumped 4-0. They shat it.

  • ChardTheRed Chard (@ChardTheRed) reported

    Once again, internet roulette because @bt_uk is a terrible service. Complain on the phone & nothing gets done. Make a ****** tweet & someone reaches out instantly, & the problem stops for most of a month with no engineer visit or fixes done. But here we go again!

  • dazzymans Darren (@dazzymans) reported

    @bt_uk Can i have a statement pls. is it true that anyone owing more than 20 pounds cant get debt help until thats paid what Theresa told me today even tho the debt is your fault? for disability rights were hitting cost of living crisis so how do u justify this refusing plans?

  • DT__92 DT (@DT__92) reported

    @themichaelowen @btsport You **** up anaw you have **** all but air between your ears

  • couchjuror John Lennon (@couchjuror) reported

    @bt_uk Where’s the announcement about the mass service outages and how long until we can expect it to be fixed?

  • GemmaCarter23 Gem (@GemmaCarter23) reported

    @bt_uk It wouldn’t have been an issue, had they worn ID instead of looking like they did. Very unprofessional with a tiny notepad. Mum didn’t feel confident opening the door as felt they were up to mischief. Sales tactics like this shouldn’t be allowed. Preys on elderly

  • srbpower Dan (@srbpower) reported

    @kellismithx @bt_uk BT are 100% the worst company I've had to deal with in 20 years of business! If you need fast and reliable internet, see if @Hyperoptic cover your postcode. I have their 1gb service and the only time it's been down is for about 1 hour in the night and they gave me advanced notice

  • IrishmanSteve IrishmanSteve (@IrishmanSteve) reported

    Is it just my BT internet that's down? Is Sky down too? Like or reply if you're also affected because I need this fixed @bt_uk
