  • timlibrarian Tim Fowler (@timlibrarian) reported from Bearpark, England

    @bt_uk Hi, no, it’s not a new build. Engineer visited before Christmas and was able to activate broadband but not phone service due to a fault in the junction box. Order number is VOL013-439847322595

  • chris_jelley Dr Chris Jelley (@chris_jelley) reported from Durham, England

    A new development on the BT issue. Had a call following my Tweet from a person @bt_uk apologising for yesterday. Early termination fee waived, apology accepted and relationship restored. Both agreed that this wasn’t the way it should happen but impressed with the resolution.

  • Geordie_Shaun shaun (@Geordie_Shaun) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @Cazza7 @btsport That’s crap. 🤬

  • breenster breenster & 🐶 (@breenster) reported from Wylam, England

    @bt_uk I have no idea, I just want someone to access the fault that was closed - and reassess, it’s recurred after 14 days of stability I’ve probably been moved back into your faulty network card or suchlike

  • HarrymBarham Harry Barham (@HarrymBarham) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Oh dear @bt_uk… Offered a new contract twice, but my acceptance has been ignored then was supposed to be transferred on a call today but the transfers are broken so was given a direct number…. for the wrong department, who are now panicking because they’re getting random calls

  • foslar71 Peter Foster (@foslar71) reported from Consett, England

    Can someone from @btsport find that annoying kid in the @afcbournemouth stand and tell him to shit the f**k up.

  • CraigShitpeas Craig Shitpeas (@CraigShitpeas) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    Rochdale’s 40yr old forward more effective than #Nufc 40million pound one. He is awful. No heart, no touch, no industry just dreadful. Well done #rochdale a deserved payday. They should have won it. They still might! #facup #btsport

  • Andyburness2 Andy burness (@Andyburness2) reported from Longbenton, England

    @btsport Turn ur phone on silent u stupid old prick

    @BTCare we're having loads of problems with our broadband the connection is atrocious we've just paid to rent a film and now it won't play it is through BT is there anything can be done please, plus I need to make sure we are not charged.

  • RiskManager01 John McLackland (@RiskManager01) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @CCriadoPerez @McAfee_Help @bt_uk Although I have never encountered any virus/mail ware problem for any Mac, you should be able to delete MacAfee files from the Library and Preference Folder.

  • breenster breenster & 🐶 (@breenster) reported from Wylam, England

    @bt_uk Dropping out, multiple times a day . It started on 1st Jan after 14 days of stability from previous fix.

  • calthomson10 Callum Thomson (@calthomson10) reported from Newburn, England

    @btsportfootball @btsport please never ever let John Hartson commentate on your channel again. Ever.

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Crook, England

    @bt_uk False alarm, it was a nice neighbour dropping off a Christmas card - I saw an Openreach van down the road and assumed that you had actually done something!!

  • chris_jelley Dr Chris Jelley (@chris_jelley) reported from Durham, England

    10+ years (probably more) of being a loyal @bt_uk @BTGroup customer and they couldn’t waive the early termination fee liable because my new move means I can’t transfer the contract to my temporary property. I will never use them again.

  • andydeltic andy (@andydeltic) reported from Gateshead, England

    @bt_uk afternoon folks. I’ve lost connection on my digital phone line. I’ve reset the handset and hub but the issue still exists. Any help would be fab thanks

  • d4rryl23 Darryl Arnett (@d4rryl23) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk Hi, I have just had an experience with your customer service, with which I still don’t have an answer, if I can get your fttp services. My new post is DH4 4ZL. Your web site says that your fttp service is available. If someone can help and views this post. Please do

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk No broadband (now 15 days late), no reasons given why not, no sense of urgency to actually get it sorted. I'm running out of superlatives to describe your dreadful customer service and general incompetence.

  • kphilchris Karen Brown (@kphilchris) reported from Ouston, England

    @BTCare I have an ongoing issue with my broadband I've been in touch a few times now, I've done as instructed & have plugged an ethernet cable into my laptop. I'm trying to watch a programme through the BT box on i player and it is just buffering all the time this can't be right

  • gman_hughes 🐢gman scouser Hughes 😬☠️ (@gman_hughes) reported from Ryton, England

    @bt_uk @CattleprodSub @Se2n22 We got BT and ours seem to be slow , is this BT saying we need to up grade to faster internet, hmmm 🤔

  • laaurenmoore94 lauren moore (@laaurenmoore94) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • MasterCal23 Callum Bates (@MasterCal23) reported

    @bt_uk I’ve been on hold for 30mins, including one person who took my details put me on hold and just transferred me to one of his colleagues… obviously heard the issue and decided to put it in the ‘too difficult’ category

  • TheRunningManZ TheRunningManZ (@TheRunningManZ) reported

    @bt_uk No fix yet. I’ve been on the phone to Chris in Dundee who is meant to be investigating and calling me back. The wider issue is that I need the internet for my job. The openreach engineer yesterday should not have removed the copper cable before checking the fibre would work.

  • 11merkury11 🐈‍⬛🪐🌒🌕🌘🔮 (@11merkury11) reported

    @bt_uk why does your website say that your phone line is open until 9pm, but when I try to call you hang up and say that advisors are only available until 8pm?

  • StrokeyMcGinger John Johnson (@StrokeyMcGinger) reported

    @TheRunningManZ @OpenreachHelp @bt_uk Not a problem sir, we will all be eagerly awaiting your return at some point this week. 👍🏻

  • timothybrookes Tim (@timothybrookes) reported

    @bt_uk Wasn’t happy Monday for me. Your engineer trampled all over my plants fitting a box on the outside of the house. Then because you never sent me the new router he couldn’t test anything, he could leave fast enough. So I had to call up to arrange for a router to be delivered. 1/2

  • LeeHannan1 Lee Hannan (@LeeHannan1) reported

    @bt_uk There no known issues. Any suggestions on why the connection drops out and then reconnects around 5 mins later?

  • Kezzy67 Magnificent Mum (@Kezzy67) reported from Sutterton, England

    @bt_uk what is up with your Internet tonight in Lincolnshire. Its been down more than up tonight and committed a mortal sin of cutting out mid @BBCTheArchers tonight. Add to that a 14 year old who lives online. I'm seriously annoyed with you tonight

  • TheRunningManZ TheRunningManZ (@TheRunningManZ) reported

    @feddevrhee @OpenreachHelp @bt_uk It was active in my street. The openreach guy here today was here 3 weeks ago installing it. But since then it’s developed an issue at the exchange further along in my town.

  • carolewoddis @woddisreviews (@carolewoddis) reported

    @bt_uk What has happened to your internet service? For the past three weeks, the connection seems sometimes non existent. Has there been an outage in SE5, Camberwell?

  • ClareHigglesden Clare Higglesden (@ClareHigglesden) reported

    @bt_uk I receive a text from BT telling me that as a Halo 3 customer, Full Fibre is now available at no extra cost! Log in to your website and am told it’s not available yet! Maybe you could clarify.
