  • stevewallwork Steve Wallwork (@stevewallwork) reported from Annfield Plain, England

    @lynseyhipgrave1 @btsport @sjsidwell I think we know the answer to that one Lynsey. Our record is traditionally poor on Boxing Day anyway.

  • 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 🤔

  • 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.

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

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

  • master_debonair Master Debonair (@master_debonair) reported from Boldon Colliery, England

    @btbusinesscare Why aren’t you dealing with our issue after 6 days without business broadband? Disgraceful service as our business is at a standstill with no replies or urgency!

  • AdvancedIFA Advanced IFA Ltd (@AdvancedIFA) reported from Boldon Colliery, England

    @btsport your service is terrible. Got billed £80 asked them to close account. Never watched it since pre lockdown 1 and today another £80 bill. Advised pay it or debt collectors will arrive then dispute it after payment. Very bad service. Still on hold 47mins to disconnect????

  • 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

  • kennydude Joe Simpson (@kennydude) reported from Seaham, England

    @quidco If you could also sort the communication problem between yourselves and @bt_uk that’d be great.

  • shahanchowdhury Shahan Chowdhury™ © (@shahanchowdhury) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @bt_uk My phone network is EE

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

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

  • heatherpott heather potts (@heatherpott) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk please can you respond to my complaint ASAP #poorcustomerservice

  • 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.

  • 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!!!

  • 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?

  • 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

  • PHoare1963 Dr Peter Hoare ⌬ (Ph or pH? 🤔) (@PHoare1963) reported from Sacriston, England

    @PaulCaden1 and the students home Wi-fi likely no better either! I’m having to drive into work any day I am delivering online outreach presentations to schools or at online conferences as our home Wi-fi is so poor.....😳 @bt_uk?

  • WASNAPPER Martin (@WASNAPPER) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    2 days on & off now sitting listening to crap music. Not by choice but trying to report another fault to @plusnethelp service used to be good but garbage since @bt_uk got involved

  • glne12 gary littlemore (@glne12) reported from Longbenton, England

    Terrible @btsport sort it out

  • 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.

  • QlikStu Stuart Wannop (@QlikStu) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk Just upgraded to fibre 500, getting 120mbps on average. Slower than my previous BT package. Been told speed cannot be accurately measured into my hub. Still in cooling off period anything else I can try before I cancel it ?

  • HollieBuss Hollie (@HollieBuss) reported

    @bt_uk We have someone coming tomorrow but I've lost count on the visits from them. It's stupid now.

  • Tomahol1 Tom Holland (@Tomahol1) reported

    @bt_uk Day 45. My internet has now been down longer than @trussliz was PM. Have spent £44.34 on that service, and I'm owed £361.20 in compensation. @WeAreOpenreach SSKMD MSO ongoing for 99 days, 5 missed resolutions dates. #stilloffline #beatthelettuce

  • DCrawford2587 DPT (@DCrawford2587) reported

    Loyola Chicago are absolutely terrible. They make basketball look really difficult. Constant turnovers. In fact, the whole game is a shambles. Cheers for putting this on, @btsport.

  • messymummsy debbie evans (@messymummsy) reported

    @bt_uk Tasha the problem is over 8 years ago . So I don’t have an account or details that your staff can find yet they say I owe £177 from more than 4 years ago ???? But they can’t send me any details absolute joke

  • Suave_Nav Naweed Sadiq (@Suave_Nav) reported

    @bt_uk increasing my broadband price by nearly £10 per month taking it to £76 per month but I can get the same package as a new customer for £55. I’ll be calling you guys to cancel soon, No loyalty. Then @EE also send me an increase. World is going mad.

  • FoodLewis 🍤🍹 KL 🌍🍲 (@FoodLewis) reported

    @EE Just sent a DM in. Fantastic customer service from Shannon! Retained my custom, gave me a fair upgrade and helped me with my @bt_uk renewal all on the same call! Star!

  • LeeMarkDavies Lee Davies (with an e) (@LeeMarkDavies) reported

    Preparing to move my broadband from @bt_uk to @virginmedia... Virgin Media calls me and all I get is a chap with Liverpudlian accent shouting "slow down, slow down" at me. He didn't take kindly to me pointing out that's not the way to get my business. That plan is now on hold.

  • BDubleYou Brian Waters (@BDubleYou) reported

    @bt_uk All good thanks. Just hope the team can reduce the clicks and bobble for me. I use it heavily to monitor who has been calling. Bookmarking you would think would help, but doesn’t.

  • Kris08860201 Kris (@Kris08860201) reported

    @bt_uk Sorry I didn’t know what to do? Will figure out with some help from friendly neighbours over the w/end, thx you asking 🙏

  • jonahmbirkett Jonah (@jonahmbirkett) reported

    @SkySports @btsport please can one of you take over all of the athletics coverage? So the fans can just pay for one service rather than 100 every season?
