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

    @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.

  • _SmithChris Chris Smith1️⃣9️⃣⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (@_SmithChris) reported from Kirkcaldy, Scotland

    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

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • richardriddell richard riddell (@richardriddell) reported from Newtongrange, Scotland

    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

  • 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.

  • 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.....

  • 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 😩

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

    @Bobfryer5 @mitchmi09009371 @bt_uk He scored on the rebound. If he hadn't you'd all be talking about his **** penalty. My word, you idiots are thick.

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

    @btsport cancel coverage of game at ibrox tonight!

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

    @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??

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

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

  • 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!

  • kari_mcburnie Kari McBurnie (@kari_mcburnie) reported from Dunfermline, Scotland

    @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.

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

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

  • 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.

  • daztynecastle Darren Hush (@daztynecastle) reported from Broxburn, Scotland

    @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!!

  • 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?!!

    @23Daves @GeorgeMonbiot @bt_uk At least Virgin have good support via the community support site. The Virgin staff on there are very helpful

  • denbanker Big Gaz (@denbanker) reported

    @bt_uk Also had an email advising you have closed my complaint ref VOL013-727275237190. Why? I still have a valid complaint My internet is still not working. I can’t use Netflix, etc and at this rate this will be over Xmas. You enjoy yours. Ta

    @bt_uk Second appointment where a engineer hasn't bothered to turn up,been waiting for internet installation since 28th October...they can't do nothing till the 10th Jan.... absolutely terrible service from your selves....2 days off work wasted.

  • BHakiman kermooni (@BHakiman) reported

    @GeorgeMonbiot @bt_uk They must be the worst van drivers on the roads too!

  • Jazifer Jasmina (@Jazifer) reported

    @bt_uk How can I find out if I have a genuine but mistaken letter sent from you demanding money, or if it's a scam? It's addressed to someone who has never lived here and certainly not our account. For some reason it looks like a good fake.

  • shelenexx Shelene 'shood' (@shelenexx) reported

    @BTCare hi, can you have broadband only & no phone line? I have no phone plugged in, we never use the landline so we don’t need it.

  • LionessPlanet Mrs Lioness (@LionessPlanet) reported

    Well further to my whinge yesterday about the phone issues for my 96yr old uncle, the fantastic staff of @BTCare have not only got on top of the problem but it was fixed today. Highly recommend this service to anyone needing help.

  • WhimsyWood Sarah Hill (@WhimsyWood) reported

    @MarcAllera @bt_uk @EE Moved from EE broadband to EE4G, soon lost speed to sub 1MB. Mast problem. Initially told 5 days to fix, now indefinite!? We both work from home so businesses impacted. Elderly parents & 3 children at home with no TV/internet over Xmas. Very disappointed

  • PompeyDetroit @K333 (@PompeyDetroit) reported

    @bt_uk That's say there's in issue all across south Hampshire... but no mention on your site or that is getting sorted
