    @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.

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

    @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.

  • _SmithChris

    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

  • MrsRouthJones
    Lesley Routh-Jones (@MrsRouthJones) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk we have just received a call from your “technical department” from number 01798 877386 who say we have issues with our broadband - I asked for further details from them about our account and the line went dead - I assume this is a spam call as that number doesn’t connect

    @btsport your coverage, excusing and support of Vunipola today was a disgrace. But hey, sports first, eh and let's ignore the rest.

  • shwadywaddyday
    Chris Osborne 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #SNP #indyref2 (@shwadywaddyday) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk Thanks I guess only time will tell with that. Incompetence from 7 days prior to instal on 10th Jan, and now just over 3 weeks since then. The visit before install should have addressed all these issues. Prior to changing me to a more expensive service. I want the equipment out.

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

    @bt_uk Yes. Internet has gone off. Please fix.

    @bt_uk Thank you, 😌I called on Monday to get some info about the early contract buy out scheme so i asked then to start a complaint.. Thanks again for emailing them. Chris

    @bt_uk is there any update on when Edinburgh will be back online? I can’t work so it’s an issue!

  • phildalgleish
    phil *wash your hands* (@phildalgleish) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Brilliant @bt_uk scam, I mean poor systems. Existing BT consumer moving house to a BT serviced property. No problem; 3 days max says @bt_uk, oh, can’t find the address of other property in our system (the one they bill and provide the service to) so pay £75 as a new install.

  • SalonEvi1

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

    @tamkelly1980 @btsportfootball @btsport @RangersFC @darrellcurrietv @EuropaLeague Are you at the windup or are you really that stupid

  • taylor354
    Graeme Taylor (@taylor354) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk @benmols @bt_uk FTTP services down for me in the EH4 area of edinburgh. Can you confirm if this is expected. Old broadband over copper is still working via the DEAN exchange.

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

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

    Andrew Kemp (@andrew_kemp) reported from Currie, Scotland

    Surprise surprise @virginmedia is down, again! apparently it’s for upgrades, Got cut off whilst on the phone sorting out leaving them! Now in the process of ordering up my @bt_uk FttP

  • fergusboden
    Fergus (@fergusboden) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Apparently an electricity problem has blown our area's internet and they might have to dig up the street to fix it. Anyone who knows me knows this is some of the worst news I could receive. (@bt_uk system was utterly clueless too, which was really helpful.)

  • Kat06075689
    Kat (@Kat06075689) reported

    @bt_uk down and we have a medical device that requires WiFi to measure a baby heart rate. Device won’t alarm if heart rate drops so essentially we can’t act right away should that happen. Fed up with BT now! Can I leave without a fee for this?

  • MarkHowitt
    GM Mark Howitt (@MarkHowitt) reported

    Slighty worried about @Plusnet cust service as a @bt_uk shareholder... he said it wasn't part of his job to know about the direct debit guarantee!

  • paulineh57
    pauline hodges (@paulineh57) reported

    @bt_uk @KevinF1311 This is why I left BT after decades of being a customer. You abused my loyalty.

  • me_not_animal
    🐧 Me Might be Animal! 🐧 (@me_not_animal) reported

    Big shout out to @bt_uk who have upgraded a 91 years olds phone to a new digital line 2 weeks ago and the phones and broadband haven’t worked since! Sent 1 engineer to as it must be a problem with the setup in the house, he confirmed it was a line fault. Had 2 more appointments

  • poutingpou
    Kyron Hodgetts (@poutingpou) reported

    @bt_uk thanks for the great service. Almost two months on, still no fibre connection and now you have cancelled my contract right in the middle of our daughter's GCSE exams revision. Well done everybody. Come on #BT get cracking

  • lnmackenzie1
    Lisa Mackenzie (@lnmackenzie1) reported

    @bt_uk Utterly shambolic customer service at your hands. Trying to help a very elderly medically vulnerable customer whose land line and broadband have been cancelled. Hours and hours spent on the phone to no avail. Next stop complaint to the regulator and seeking media coverage.

  • messalinahooper
    grace hooper (@messalinahooper) reported

    @bt_uk so after 21 days of "service" I've had justv6 days of tv working without Internet dropping. That's really, really poor. If you don't cover Hurst Green then don't sell your service here

    @bt_uk I have order VOL013-1056903730240, kit has arrived & I've set it up. Service is due to start on 17/6 but I learn that I can use the app to start before, i.e. today? The order doesn't show in the app & if I search for order + post code it claims they're incorrect. Help🙏?
