  • brian6211 Brian Thomas (@brian6211) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThomasDuecke just thought you should know that I’m experiencing appalling customer service from @bt_uk and despite almost 10 hours complaining, am still no further forward. Can you please help as I’m at my wits end?

  • intergeri Clemfandango 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ (@intergeri) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @Roddysmith12 @mitchmi09009371 @bt_uk On a rebound. Doesn't take away the fact it was a **** penalty.

  • ambermhammond Amber Hammond (@ambermhammond) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Bored of being fobbed off @bt_uk @OpenreachHelp No WiFi since December 18th, consistently promised fix dates and still no resolve. Escalated again today, no one will contact us till next week - promed today it would be fixed. If you're in Edinburgh just go with @virginmedia 😩

  • DarkblueDad Keith Guthrie 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺WearingAFaceCovering (@DarkblueDad) reported from Currie, Scotland

    @bt_uk Found out it was an issue with cordless phone not hanging up!

  • K_J_Donnelly Kathryn Donnelly (@K_J_Donnelly) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Absolutely ridiculous @bt_uk that you expect customers to accept not having broadband for 8 days whilst @scotgov ask us to #WFH without any complaint. #EH4 #Stockbridge

  • britishbulldawg British Bulldawg (@britishbulldawg) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @btsport I get that when @CollegeGameDay brakes to show footage from the Masters it’s an issue because of rights but to just start the programme again after an hour is ridiculous. Doesn’t really justify the recent price rises 😤

  • intergeri Clemfandango 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ (@intergeri) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @Roddysmith12 @mitchmi09009371 @bt_uk ****, you can't even think of an original insult. Is it just too much for your 2 brain cells to cope with? Watch you don't have an aneurysm.

  • gavsuave Gabhainn 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@gavsuave) reported from Dunfermline, Scotland

    How can teams with no money coming in from gate receipts afford to pay £80 million for a player. Far too much money coming in from @SkySports and @btsport and of course state broadcaster @BBCSport Cancel subscription to all.

  • MikeyInglis Mikey Inglis (@MikeyInglis) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @btsport why do you cut out all promotion content, even for @WWENetwork, with your annoying logo and music. No need for it and disturbs the flow of the programme.

  • Andymitch79 Andy Mitchelmore (@Andymitch79) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk That is the problem! Where do I find my landline number?

  • brian6211 Brian Thomas (@brian6211) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk No the issue wasn’t resolved. I answered the call within a few seconds but they hung up right away and made no attempt to call again. If you have an hour or so, read the notes. Utterly appalling. I am expecting 2 callbacks today but not holding my breath. @ThomasDuecke @Ofcom

  • DarkblueDad Keith Guthrie 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺WearingAFaceCovering (@DarkblueDad) reported from Currie, Scotland

    Is there a @bt_uk problem in Peterhead currently. Asking for mother-in-law who has no dial tone. AB42 1GE

  • K_J_Donnelly Kathryn Donnelly (@K_J_Donnelly) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk this is day 5 of no broadband in #EH4 #Edinburgh. Please can someone fix it soon

  • LAYC2015 LAYC (@LAYC2015) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk please help small charity who has no telephone landline and don’t understand why there’s a fault? On hold to very expensive customer service line!

  • Nellabob Bob Allen (@Nellabob) reported from Aberdour, Scotland

    @btsport have to say your trackside mikes are trash! Get it better guys!! Could not hear Chilwell, cannot hear Tuchel!! Poor quality.....

  • gongthegoalie Colin Lundie (@gongthegoalie) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @btsport it’s actually btsport 1 that I have the problem on.

  • SandmanEdi boswelltoday (@SandmanEdi) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @jeanluk55982424 @jackiebmsp @bt_uk “Burden of bad news” 👏 You mean bearer of bad news. Muppet.

  • Keithduncan47 Keith Duncan (@Keithduncan47) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk Thanks Lesley. Unfortunately the issue has been going on for over 10 years now. It’s quite frankly gone beyond a joke. To add insult to injury a new school is being built in front of me and has already have fibre installed as have all the flats around us.

  • SalonEvi1 Salon Evi (@SalonEvi1) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk Thank you, that would be great. It has been one week and still not fix it yet. Very disappointed

  • intergeri Clemfandango 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ (@intergeri) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @mitchmi09009371 @bt_uk Kane's penalty against Denmark was pretty **** as well yet he didn't get the backlash these players got.

  • ASPRIV999 . (@ASPRIV999) reported

  • Askthoudogs JT (@Askthoudogs) reported

    @bt_uk @craig_mcrae Stop ignoring everyone asking about Warzone. We can’t get online because of a problem on your end and you’re just ignoring it.

  • Askthoudogs JT (@Askthoudogs) reported

    @bt_uk I can’t get online on Warzone and by the looks of it it’s an issue on your end. What is going on?

  • JakeMor00352511 Jake Morris (@JakeMor00352511) reported

    @bt_uk hello I and thousands of others are having an issue because you have blocked video game servers such as warzone so people are unable to play them. Please revert this change I literally only have bt because I need fast Internet to game. Please revert or give me the option.

  • callumisraving Callum is Raving (@callumisraving) reported

    @JakeMor00352511 @bt_uk Internet fine, party chat fine, games not fine…This isn’t a connection issue, it’s literal blocking/filtering @bt_uk

  • F4nta5yy +Lord Cruxaw (@F4nta5yy) reported

    @bt_uk Never mind, found the number, sent the text. Any estimate on time it'll take?
