    @bt_uk I have been trying to cancel my BTsport subscription for 40 minutes now but each time I get transferred to cancellations the line goes dead. Has happened twice now. Please advise.

  • Darkestfrost James bartlett (@Darkestfrost) reported from Braintree, England

    @T3RRAF0RM @StadiaWorks @Webby317 @bt_uk On my s10 plus it works great. Connection takes about 2-3 minutes to settle down (lag on controls) but after that I dont notice anything. Looks great on the little screen to! But I wouldn't pay for the service atm.

    @btsport Hi,I am trying to freeze my £25 subscription but can’t reach anyone on the phone. My login details bring up my EE account which is free and I want to talk about my BT one. Help please!!

  • xTerronga 𝖝𝕿𝖊𝖗𝖗𝖔𝖓𝖌𝖆 (@xTerronga) reported from Maldon, England

    @bt_uk Still terrible

  • rider45 Brian O'Keefe (@rider45) reported from Great Baddow, England

    @K_Katastrophe @DebbieFletcher @bt_uk Plusnet is separate from BT but owned by them, I think you’ll find with the big companies that customer service is poor, especially now with many call centres cut back, I’ve been with BT broadband since 2001 not let me down thus far.

  • jonesy23 lee jones (@jonesy23) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @bt_uk @BTCare Hi Team. I currently have the fibre 100 package (fibre to home) however I seem to experience severe performance issues when we have 2 laptops running in the apartment. Could you please contact / send a wii fii boaster possibly ?

  • Therockstar111 Rowan Richards (@Therockstar111) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @bt_uk Can you tell us all actually what has happened to be broadband network in the Chelmsford area and approximately how long will service return to normal so we can make arrangements please?

  • beckiewood69 Beckie Wood (@beckiewood69) reported from Heybridge, England

    @bt_uk I have a very bad broadband connection today, trying to WFH is proving difficult. BT not says no fault but there most definitely is

  • xTerronga 𝖝𝕿𝖊𝖗𝖗𝖔𝖓𝖌𝖆 (@xTerronga) reported from Braintree, England

    @bt_uk This came back no issue, but I can confidently say there is an issue

  • Darkestfrost James bartlett (@Darkestfrost) reported from Braintree, England

    @StadiaWorks @Webby317 @T3RRAF0RM @bt_uk No. Xcloud is using off site servers. Xcloud console streaming is using console hardware. No interest in stadia at all. I'm in the beta for xcloud and it runs seamlessly (for me) even when on a 4g network.

  • Bull_Diggy Bull Diggy #GSBOUT (@Bull_Diggy) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @bt_uk my internet is down, I’m stuck in with 2 kids on lock down, and after nearly 45 minutes on the phone you still have not answered. Absolutely disgusting customer service 😡😡😡😡😡

  • SJWilding Simon Wilding🔸🇪🇺 (@SJWilding) reported from Eight Ash Green, England

    Absolutely shocking "help" from @bt_uk regarding a total **** up with a new broadband/landline order leaving a grieving widow basically alone and uncontactable. Thanks.

    Can anyone at @bt_uk help?!? My parents in 70s have been waiting for phone line & broadband to be installed - order place on 4th July. They’re completed without internet or phone with v poor mobile signal. They rely on internet and in current Covid climate it’s distressing them!

    @bt_uk The engineer has just turned up. Turns out he hadn’t been working remotely as told on the phone. So I’m glad I didn’t leave the house! Really poor service and communication.

  • coldvreath ColdvreathMill (@coldvreath) reported

    @bt_uk No we’re an EE customer. And I’m sure my neighbours will all be with different companies. It’s just that it seems to be the infrastructure which is failing and I assumed that belonged to you or Open Reach?

  • lisaSG2021 🥰 Lisa ❤️ (@lisaSG2021) reported

    @bt_uk Not since my wifi has been terrible all week and even worse today. Can someone sort this for me please …
