    Keg Man Plays (@Kegmanplays) reported from Sproughton, England

    @Mark_Elkington @LeeCotton1 @WWEGP @btsport I get that, but there's a decent size roster there & with enough rotation (which I'm sure there will be) that should help stop things being stale. Plus there's a good chance a few more names will be announced too I see it working. Khan is a savvy man & the elite know what's up

    @bt_uk I have been trying to cancel my BTsport subscription for 40 minutes now but each time I get transferred to cancellations the line goes dead. Has happened twice now. Please advise.

    Sue Pownall Artist (@SuePownall) reported from Bures Saint Mary, England

    @bt_uk I don't want to receive the message. I want the number blocked. It doesn't ring on my phone but goes to voicemail and I have to waste time calling it and listening to garbage.

    @bt_uk There isn’t that’s the problem... everytime the track order says update on such a date it then just says delayed. Really is disgraceful.

    Paige 📚🎮 (@pseveruscarter) reported from Sudbury, England

    @bt_uk To the mobile number, correct? I just want to make sure the mobile number is legitimate as BT have never text me from a regular mobile number before. Cheers ☺

    @bt_uk can you explain why daily on your app I get “ token expired “! I am constantly having to log in. I read that there is a problem with the app. When will this be rectified ??

    @bt_uk day 5 of no landline or broadband and expected fix date 23 June 😡😡 seriously shocking customer service when I phone to ask what you can do to help me …. Nothing unless I upgrade apparently. How am I supposed to work from home?

  • pseveruscarter
    Paige 📚🎮 (@pseveruscarter) reported from Sudbury, England

    @bt_uk hello. We were due to have our engineer out today between 8-1 to fix our Internet which we have been told is 95% in amber and working at the worst rate. I have had a text at 10:19 claiming that our service is back to normal, but no engineer has knocked on the door (1-)

  • AnneRuddock
    Anne Ruddock (@AnneRuddock) reported from Colchester, England

    @bt_uk Not a new build at all. Several operators ordered my broadband (phone line’s working fine) & then it kept being cancelled by the service provider. Numerous phone calls to yourselves, promised call backs didn’t happen. I gave you over 2 weeks to sort it out before going elsewhere

  • Peckham_Heights
    Richie Fine™ 🏳️‍🌈 (@Peckham_Heights) reported from Clacton-on-Sea, England

    @VinylYesPlease @bt_uk I had two yesterday. Same thing saying Amazon Prime. I need to get me a whistle or something loud to play down their earpiece then they might stop calling.

    Paul Boon (@wizedude_) reported from Ipswich District, England

    How disgraceful is it that @btsportfootball have #allardyce on TV. He is a no good cheating scum who took back handers and should never be allowed on #TV @btsport you should be #ashamed of yourselves. Sam Allardyce should never be allowed on TV ever!! #disgrace #btsport

    Hi @bt_uk our phone lines are down yet again, the 3rd time in as many weeks and 1-4 days to fix… this is our busiest time of year and we are missing lots of potential business which is costing us dearly

  • princess_boo148
    Laura Stevens (@princess_boo148) reported from Colchester, England

    @bt_uk absolutely shocking service from yourselves. Leaving my elderly mum without a phoneline and Internet and no way of contacting people then trying to say an engineer resolved the issue today when no one has been out 😡

    @btbusinesscare Trying to help elderly neighbour who has fault with her business landline, after she had a new internal box and router fitted. Now no landline! Getting no joy from calling BT. She doesn’t have a mobile or email address and just getting automated responses. HELP!

    @btbusinesscare hi just to let you know I've been hanging on trying to get help with new handsets that were meant to be activated 23/12. We are a small tailoring business and our customers are telling us verbally our number isn't working. I've been waiting for more than 35 mins.

  • SianyRum
    Sian Rumble (@SianyRum) reported

    @btbusinesscare I am so disappointed with the lack of service I have received. We moved premises on 31/07/25 and to date still no broadband or landline. Disgusting, and you are still charging me monthly which should have been refunded. Your admin is disgraceful also.

    The Evolution Of Life (@TEOL85) reported

    @bt_uk all especially as it's been working on a constant properly for the first 3 months after January installation it is your end especially if far away countries are getting the same issue of backup feeds cutting in instead of the show to come out then it randomly comes out of nowhere
