  • 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.

  • 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

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

  • 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

  • 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??

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.....

  • 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 😤

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • 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!

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

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

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

    @Tim_S_Wilkinson @bt_uk Don’t trust any comments here i have been scammed twice 😩😩 if you need help write to @andreewscott001 he’s a good.

  • toadshrooms13 angel (@toadshrooms13) reported

    @btsport why is there still an issue with playing bt sport on the ps5? It’s been months, I’ve seen countless complaints. When are you going to offer a solution?

  • Garli_Lauri Laurie Garlington (@Garli_Lauri) reported

    @GaryWhi99094061 @bt_uk That's what I thought. Their excuse is that with so many people working from home and all the data everyone is using they just had to raise their prices. My bill is made up of service charges - so money for nothing. I haven't increased my data usage. They're just thieving.

  • phoebebuffay21 Simon B (@phoebebuffay21) reported

    I've just watched #Scottishfootballextra on @btsport what the hell is going on with @chris_sutton73 he's like a deranged lunatic. Screaming, shouting, being unbelievable rude to the host @darrellcurrietv never seen anything like it, very very strange show!

  • logikUK Aaron | LOGIK (@logikUK) reported

    @btsport how is it that the live football streams on your app are worst than illegal streams on the internet?!?

  • jasonilagan jason ilagan (@jasonilagan) reported

    Another issue is that their pricing structure is so untransparent. Difficult to see what deals are actually available. Is this really all you can do, @bt_uk?

  • kaizagade Josh Palmer (@kaizagade) reported

    @david__123 @bt_uk This looks to be more a computer problem. I work in computers and we get a few laptops not liking our internet router. So I just uninstall the network drivers and update them and it’s all good.

  • thompa101 Carl Thompson (@thompa101) reported from York, England

    So, @bt_uk sent me, unasked for, WiFi router that I don't need. Two days later a returns bag. Don't return get a £50+ charge! All coms by email/mms. You doing this with everyone? Looks a lot like moneymaking scam... Especially for the old. Poor show.

  • mark_c_carter Mark Carter (@mark_c_carter) reported

    @bt_uk Emergency telecare fall/distress system. I get you can't guarantee a date but I got an email 7th stating the service would go live yesterday and then it just didn't!

  • Christo95746904 christopher mitchell (@Christo95746904) reported

    @btsport why oh why does keown the most one side anti Manchester united pundit in existence keep getting united games where he misses fouls by opposition players and bad passing from them or time wasting. Yet united are constantly criticised immediately for anything anyone does.
