  • janey656 Janey (@janey656) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk why aren’t you letting customers pause BT sports like sky have. I was told I could cancel but would have to pay out the contract. Your not providing the service we signed up for so why are you still taking our money. Come on BT do the right thing! And answer our question!

  • hazystew Sin-i-sister (@hazystew) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

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

  • gawrjuhs [gawr-juhs] (@gawrjuhs) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @btbusinesscare Hi. Are you currently experiencing an outage in central Edinburgh? My Business Hub is stuck on orange, so no WiFi connection and VOIP business phone line 😕

  • baldy100 Gregg Aston (@baldy100) reported from Gorebridge, Scotland

    @bt_uk Disappointing service again from BT. Nothing but hassle from the start and terrible coverage from router. 21 days since complaint email has been sent which has gone unanswered. Called today and found very unhelpful and only interested in selling further products. Avoid.

  • karenagalloway Karen A Galloway (@karenagalloway) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk In which case I need to report our broadband is down.

  • karenagalloway Karen A Galloway (@karenagalloway) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk No known faults in the area but no service - Wi-fi working - phone died yesterday

  • 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.

  • MrSifter_ Marky ™ (@MrSifter_) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk I’m not at home I’ll do it once home I had great speeds with sky and their the worst

  • janey656 Janey (@janey656) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @btsport BT sports need to follow Sky’s lead and let customers pause their payment UFN all I got when I phoned was it’s not our fault we’re waiting on a decision from the SFA. They said I could cancel BUT I’d have to pay to get out of the contract, Come on BT get a grip.

  • PEJ13 Perry E Jenkins (@PEJ13) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk Hi. I have STILL NOT been updated as to when BT will be able to get our Broadband up and running (BT error has disconnected) - Complaint Ref VOL013-476616060803 Rgds.

  • Ox13SCO BJCampbell (@Ox13SCO) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @SkyCinemaUK @NetflixUK @bt_uk @AppleTV @PrimeVideo why not give something back and provide all your services free for 3 months to help the wider community #UKTOGETHER #KILLTHEVIRUS #COVID2019

  • MerryGoGirl MerryGoGirl (@MerryGoGirl) reported

    @WolfSkullJack @bt_uk Wow what a total spit in the eye. I would demand to cancel my contract so I can sign up with someone who doesn't treat you with such contempt.

  • Kia_Who_ KiaRebecca (@Kia_Who_) reported

    @bt_uk seriously BT. More@problems and no one to talk to. Surely after this many issues it’s the nice thing to do to let me out this contract. I can’t even watch YouTube videos without having to switch to my mobile data!

  • HawkieHawkins96 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐭 (@HawkieHawkins96) reported from Rushden, England

    So @SkySports felt United with the fans over the Super League, died this mean you’ll stop ripping off your customer with extortionate prices? Same goes to @btsport

  • _HenloLizer_ lizer 🦧 (@_HenloLizer_) reported

    .@bt_uk **** off terrible company. Sends workers to dig up the landline with no notice to us whatsoever then the workers just leave. Leaving us with no internet until they return. Dog **** company

  • _____meg meg (@_____meg) reported

    @btbusinesscare Absolutely fuming with the way my parents are being treated with BT. Cutting a businesses internet and phone line just before the world returns to normal? This is a crucial time for retailers, and to remove the ability to contact or pay for a service is disgusting

  • whoareuthen dickser (@whoareuthen) reported

    @ViewOfTheKop_ @SkySports @btsport Will never happen,

  • tweets_marks Mark's Tweets (@tweets_marks) reported

    @bt_uk @xboxuk BT customer here, already have Game Pass Ultimate through Microsoft. Is there any advantage in going through BT?

  • DanTheMan_709 Dan Foster (@DanTheMan_709) reported

    @bt_uk is there a problem in Mountsorrel? Internets gone down all of a sudden and won’t connect. This is getting stupid it needs sorting it’s forever being temperamental 😡

  • EdwardNiger Edward Niger (@EdwardNiger) reported

    @ViewOfTheKop_ @SkySports @btsport Never going to happen, as they don't give two sh*ts about fans either.

  • Oxfordite Rupert wilson (@Oxfordite) reported

    @plusnethelp Turns out there’s a national fault on Virgin media phone network.. @bt_uk @ZenInternetHelp
