    Can someone at @btsport please replay the incident and show us where the head knock is, there isn't one. He is trying to get away with one

  • RTPeat
    Richard Peat  (@RTPeat) reported from Kinghorn, Scotland

    @OpenreachHelp Hi Dan, there is no service in their new house as they’ve emigrated - the @bt_uk service is sitting unused. It seems absolutely ludicrous to replace the ONT with a 4 port for a property that only needs 1 FTTP service because of a BT admin issue!

    @EdinReporter There are some horrors in Leith that could do with being removed before new expensive paving goes down @BTCare could show it cares…

    Hello. Is there a problem with @bt_uk email? I can't access. Very inconvenient. #BTEmail #Down?

    Edinburgh calling! Is @bt_uk Internet down?

    @bt_uk you were supposed to send out an 4g mobile hub but got an email saying it has not been sent! I have not had internet now for nearly a week please help!!

    @btsport The worst customer service. Left me hanging until 9 pm then hung up. Problem unresolved

    @FinlayMcF @bt_uk The two next to Tupiniquim on Lauriston Place are in slightly better repair but are mostly used for drug deals and emergency toilet situations 😕

    @bt_uk Hi, i’m not a customer of yours, but we’ve just been delivered a tv box for someone who doesn’t live at our address?

    @btbusinesscare I’ve been trying to cancel an order for two weeks now. Can’t get through to anyone, no live chat available. Log in details not correct etc and unable to email in to you. Refused delivery of items. Please can someone contact me as a matter of urgency. Thanks.

    @btsport cancel coverage of game at ibrox tonight!

  • RTPeat
    Richard Peat  (@RTPeat) reported from Kinghorn, Scotland

    @bt_uk I don’t want the equipment removed, I want your customers service removed from it so I can have my service installed rather than having to have hardware pointlessly replaced. Your customer has emigrated, the service is no longer used.

  • Katerinaaah
    Katerina (@Katerinaaah) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk It was a copper line, changed to digital voice. We have been told categorically that the number cannot be transferred. Are you sure you can help with this?

    @knackersakki @mitchmi09009371 @bt_uk So I've had replies saying he got lots of critisism and others saying he got none as all that mattered was that he scored. How badly he took the penalty has no bearing on anything. Comes across like there's a section of fans who don't support the team unless they're winning.

    @GenuineNoob198 @mitchmi09009371 @bt_uk Do you know what a question mark is? It means I'm asking you a question not making a statement. FFS and you're calling me stupid??

    C'mon @bt_uk waiting for an engineer to show up today to sort out your terrible service.what a surprise no-one has turned up.Even the ee box you sent is hopeless

  • TheCocoAnarchy
    Colin Norman Wright (@TheCocoAnarchy) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Hey folks. Just to let you know that the following number, 02039665726 is poising as BT (@bt_uk) but it is a cold call scam. Hang up, block & report.

  • Stegadoris
    Steven Grant (@Stegadoris) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk No, I haven't. Can you provide their details? There isn't an issue with the phone lines but the recent wind up here in Edinburgh has the branches bashing of the lines, so it's only a matter of time before the branches snap the wires, hence I'm trying to take preventive measures.

  • maryjanesdesk
    Avantika (@maryjanesdesk) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Have been trying to get broadband sorted since we moved over a MONTH ago and between the innumerable errors made by @bt_uk and apparent issues with Openreach's systems I am at my wits end...how do you not inform the provider / the customer if you aren't going to turn up?!!

    @bt_uk I’m just about to change to Airband because my service is crap…live in a small cottage and no longer have service I’m upstairs…keep running out of data on my phone because the broadband chucks me off

  • VfxZeal
    vfx.zeal (@VfxZeal) reported

    @bt_uk i have had the same issue in August with my router flashing purple. And now again, 4th October, again even with the replacement router it has started to flash purple again? What is this? I’ve contacted the technical support team, they said an engineer was meant to get it

  • stuwebb72
    stuart webb (@stuwebb72) reported

    @btbusinesscare Ironically, that’s what I asked for several times, including speaking to a supervisor but was told he had to buy himself…. I’ll help him again to raise a complaint this time

  • craigallen_25
    Craig Allen. (@craigallen_25) reported

    @bt_uk Finally received a call, failed to fix fault and told it was the router so sent new router. This didn’t work so contacted BT again and as I said it was not the router. So an engineer has to come but first avail appt not until 15th! Not good.

  • L1sa130466
    Lisa (@L1sa130466) reported

    @bt_uk our BT Box is not working according to Freeview from your trouble shoot section. Our broadband quality is poor also. Been like this for 4 weeks. I can't get through on phone. Can I cancel my contract with you

  • Quizzie
    Tracey B (@Quizzie) reported

    @prbreez @MLB The UK ESPN website is not showing MLB. I paid for the year on MLBtv and it stated postseason was included up until a day or so ago. Previous years I could watch postseason even with MLB's deal with BTSport who shows baseball in the UK. They didn't blackout the main season.

  • Penkhurst

    @bt_uk My service in Bognar Regis has gone down within the last 40 minutes. Fix this please.

  • DaleAitkenhead
    Dale Aitkenhead (@DaleAitkenhead) reported

    @bt_uk They rang (Aiden) they can’t fix the fault and advise I have to have a new number !! I’ve had the same number for 11 years & all my service providers have it as well as parents. It’s ludicrous tbh …. So much updating to do and we’re bound to forget someone.

  • matchoowly
    Matchoowly (@matchoowly) reported

    @bt_uk Frustrating? It's been off for over a week guys. Then to get a message saying its fixed, when it's not, is poor expectation setting. Not your fault. Its the tools your company provides to its staff and how it treats them. Affects customers like this. It's really bad 😬
