  • 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!

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

    @bt_uk I would if BT could do the job claimed. My fibre should have been active on the 9th Jan. I was told some BS about the routing route of the cables not as expected. Yet I know the fibre line is all set up and connected to the exchange now. . I've waited 7+ years Di I need to cancel

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

    @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

  • 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.

  • DavidTannerTV David Tanner (@DavidTannerTV) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @JimDelahunt @ScotsFootyCards @whyimeadie @btsportfootball @Betfred @btsport @spfl @spflnews @FootballThen @SportOnTheBox @FootballInT80s @davstu11 @1968Tv @andycameron1940 Haha! JD, I didn’t ever think about that! Damn. Those blue overalls that Dennis wore were a source of joy for me!

  • paulgreig6 Paul Greig (@paulgreig6) reported from East Calder, Scotland

    @bt_uk absolute shambles of a service. Sat on hold for 29mins to then be cut off because your call hours are from 8am-9pm. I called within that time. Broadband setup has been absolutely shocking from Openreach install, product delivery & now setup. Get me on DM or phone ASAP!

  • 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.

  • andrew_kemp Andrew Kemp (@andrew_kemp) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    New @bt_uk #fttp been in for a few days... what have I noticed so far, no drop outs, Wi-fi calling working decent internet speeds and general decent service unlike @virginmedia

  • 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.)

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

    @bt_uk So thanks to @bt_uk I owe £ 159.00 to @SSE for the cancelation of my contract. Then will leave me with no service whatsoever. It was bt that emailed me back in December to anounce I could now get fiber. I hope who ever calls tommoro is fully autherized to financially fix this.

  • Ashie_Moto Ashley Louise (@Ashie_Moto) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk The problem is that We don’t have a landline so we don’t know the number to put in and check. We ran the diagnostic through the laptop which told us we needed to call.... I gave up after spending 40 mins on hold and getting nowhere. Not very impressed tbh.

  • andrew_kemp Andrew Kemp (@andrew_kemp) reported from Currie, Scotland

    Hello @bt_uk broadband goodbye @virginmedia. BT fibre being installed today! Finally virgin media have got some competition in the area. I can see everyone in the area switching in the coming months due to the poor service you’ve provided everyone in Currie.

  • andrew_kemp Andrew Kemp (@andrew_kemp) reported from Currie, Scotland

    All the old @virginmedia equipment has been disconnected and unplugged! It’s been like night and day getting @bt_uk #fttp installed, so far 10 families in my street have moved away from VM... that’s what you get for poor customer service

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

    Do I even want to know how much our goverment is funding these works that @bt_uk are claiming for upgrading the network.

  • 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

  • RossM3110 Ross (@RossM3110) reported from Kirkcaldy, Scotland

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

  • andrew_kemp Andrew Kemp (@andrew_kemp) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @stevegoodman @bt_uk @virginmedia I’ve given up on VM they’ve been the only fibre in the area for years and their service has gone from ok to bad to worse. Working from home was proving challenging. Teams would always say poor network quality

  • DarrenCBGR Darren Fleming 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🤓 (@DarrenCBGR) reported from Dunfermline, Scotland

    @lukenev13 @SkySports @btsport Aye Amazon has got a shit tone of games, if they have more going forward it's not bad for 7.99 a month

  • celticghirlmo Moira Johnstone (@celticghirlmo) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk You need to cut down on the adverts it’s ridiculous you should be ashamed charging for a channel of nothing but adverts 🤬🤬🤬

  • DavidTannerTV David Tanner (@DavidTannerTV) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @MikeyRuddick @btsportfootball @HibernianFC @btsport @sunsetandvine Just read that. To be honest, he’s never a League 1-level player. I move would be good for him. He would to say no to Celtic.

  • iain7777 Iain Keating (@iain7777) reported

    @OpenreachHelp @BTCare literary the worst example of customer service anywhere. Every deadline missed, zero updates provided, broken promises, departments refusing to talk to each other, endless delays with no explanation - utter shambles

  • JuliaLarden Julia Larden (@JuliaLarden) reported

    @bt_uk I am having a problem with my landline and I am having a nightmare getting in touch with you - it seems you just don't straight phone calling any more. I am supposed to text my landline number into my mobile. I CAN'T. What now please?

  • SoullaStylianou SoullaStylianou (@SoullaStylianou) reported

    @NicholasNeedham @BTCare @bt_uk I thought I was with Halo? Says fibre but clearly I’m down. Hmmm

  • DanM944 Dan (@DanM944) reported

    @BTCare Morning. Can someone see what on earth has happened to my internet speed? Reset everything and tried everything suggested and it’s still bloody awful and well under the promised speeds. Not great for someone working from home...

  • RobMCarr ThatGuy (@RobMCarr) reported

    @bt_uk had an broadband engineer round yesterday "i could see it wasn't working this morning but now everything is working", and today I've already had 2 drop outs. You need to retrofit the line on my road, it's been 2 years of poor performance. Invest!

  • sadietrent_92 Sadie (@sadietrent_92) reported

    @bt_uk so you want to help! but you use a company called TSG for ariels who think its ok to disrespect customers, ll them liars, disrespect other members of their households, the list is endless. The wouldnt let me make a complaint and neither would you

  • RMcHattie Ross McHattie (@RMcHattie) reported

    @bt_uk any chance someone can help with broadband connection with at drops so much I can’t even use your online service to register fault. It’s honestly laughable

  • patrick_harper Patrick Harper (@patrick_harper) reported

    @virginmedia I agreed a new price with you last month and now you're putting it up. Your letter says to go on the website. The website says to call. The phone message says you're too busy to take calls. How do I cancel your services and move to @BT_uk? Thanks!

  • jloz2814 jessholmes (@jloz2814) reported

    @bt_uk most shocking Internet EVER!! We have had no Internet signal since yesterday evening.... not really ideal when my sons trying to do his home learning
