  • rando__ James (@rando__) reported from Colchester, England

    @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.

  • nickareay Nick Reay (@nickareay) reported from West Mersea, England

    Dear @btsportfootball - I’m giving up on your pathetic #BTSport @YouTube “stream” Poor game, blurry picture, feeble analysis. I’ll leave it with you...

  • LizzieMizzie_ Lizzie 🎭 (@LizzieMizzie_) reported from Elmstead Market, England

    @bt_uk hi. We have a BT Infinity hub. WiFi doesn’t work when I’m in my bedroom on my iPhone. Just kicks me out and back onto 4G. On my iPod, I have to be sitting in the middle of my bed to get WiFi. I’ve tried resetting iPhone network and the hub to no avail. Might have to get +

  • mattrbarn матт вагиетт (@mattrbarn) reported from Colchester, England

    BT sport box office. UFC numbered events being ppv this could push my subscription above £50 a month. Very bad decision @btsport @btsportufc

  • KJL1719 Kial (@KJL1719) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @BTCare @rioferdy5 Bloody terrible news. I can't remember the last time I watched it since ITV lost it. I Used to love sitting down with my brother's when we were younger watching it on ITV. Money is ruining the game and nothing can stop it!

  • pauldungey Paul Dungey - a life with dogs ❤️ (@pauldungey) reported from Colchester, England

    The sound for the manchester utd match on BT Sport 2HD live is terrible, the crowd is louder than the commentary, mind you @RobbieSavage8 is one of them so it's not all bad!! @btsportfootball @btsport

  • rando__ James (@rando__) reported from Eight Ash Green, England

    @bt_uk hi need to cancel an order with you, what’s the phone number please :)

  • OseEyelashes Essex Eyes (@OseEyelashes) reported from Kelvedon, England

    @btsport cancelling my service. This is shocking.

  • swiftbookmakers Bobby (@swiftbookmakers) reported from Clacton-on-Sea, England

    I would just like to thank @btcare for their helpfulness during these hard times for business......Broadband been down for two days of Ascot......no chance of taking a bet for our second busiest week of the year....workmen trying to fix problem now gone home for the day (3:30 pm)

  • wizedude_ 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

  • Robzx6r Rob McGuckin (@Robzx6r) reported from Capel Saint Mary, England

    @btsport charging for the McGregor fight tonight. Time to cancel BT sport!

  • Kegmanplays 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

  • andydbayford Andy Bayford (@andydbayford) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @bt_uk No we have intermittent service on all devices, I reported it after Christmas and got an email yesterday to say the problem was outside and had been addressed, clearly not! I am at work now so don’t have account details to hand...

  • rando__ James (@rando__) reported from Eight Ash Green, England

    So back to the @bt_uk saga, ordered 12th sept, told engineer would install on 27th sept, no one turned up, phoned & told no network had been built & would get a phone call yesterday, didn’t happen. Called today & next update 9th November. Absolutely disgraceful.

  • rando__ James (@rando__) reported from Eight Ash Green, England

    Shocking from @bt_uk ... mum and step dad ordered broadband 3 weeks ago for new property, engineer booked for today, doesn’t turn up. Ring them and told no network is built and won’t be for a while, yet website says everything’s up and running! Complaint made.

  • tristandawson Tristan Dawson (@tristandawson) reported from Wivenhoe, England

    @btsport So my BT sport bill goes up to £30 so I call to cancel and you offer to reduce it to £15 #thanksbutnothanks

  • andydbayford Andy Bayford (@andydbayford) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @bt_uk Hello Kelly, In answer to your question, I pay for complete Wi-fi yes, have I ever experienced a month with no issues, No! I have 3 discs one of which says it’s working and is 3 metres away from the TV shown on my initial post!

  • IRDavies90 Ian Ross Davies (@IRDavies90) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @scottyd501 @xboxuk @btsport @bt_uk Yeah just wanted to check my options first, was hoping they’d help a loyal customer out... £46.99 a month at the moment.

  • coopemania Ben Cooper (@coopemania) reported from Rowhedge, England

    @stevemcfc1974 @premierleague @SkySportsPL @btsportfootball @btsport Awful how it's got mate

  • 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

BT (British Telecom) Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • PSRK76 Philip K (@PSRK76) reported

    @bt_uk That's the issue, you can't! You take the option to "manage" you products and it just tells you that you already have it and if you wish to change it, then call. The problem is, whenever I call, just get told you are too busy and to call back later.

  • bryn460 John (@bryn460) reported

    @bt_uk The BT bot just confirms an outage. BT washes hands, blames Openreach and customers are left without broadband, no explanation and possible fix date that inevitably gets kicked further on each time. Getting fed up with it BT.

  • JmsDmnd James Diamond (@JmsDmnd) reported

    @bt_uk I’ve just got home from holiday after getting an email on Thursday saying my service was going love the next day. It’s now too late to speak to anyone and I’m meant to be working from home tomorrow.

  • mb_shelley michelle (@mb_shelley) reported

    @bt_uk Hi our broadband is down and i need to speak to someone, nobody is answering the phones, not acceptable when your trying to run a business from home and need some help!

  • julienboast Julien Boast (@julienboast) reported

    For 14 days, I've had ZERO @bt_uk Internet Service despite 7 missed repair deadlines. No one acts with any urgency or reputable customer service skills, even when a complaint is on their CEO’s desk. With hollow words, #BritishTelecom says I'll be online Wednesday at 10.28am

  • iain_cardwell Iain Cardwell (@iain_cardwell) reported

    @bt_uk during June and July our broadband was down for 35 days starting from 08 June. My wife has had an email today to say that £25.20 has been credited to our account for the downtime. Based on the fact automatic compensation is £8.40/day, where does £25.20 come from??....

  • DomFowler4 Dom Fowler (@DomFowler4) reported

    @btsport What is this shite? More likely to sign me. Neymar hahahaha he's never even heard of Newcastle

  • julieirwin22 julie Irwin, (@julieirwin22) reported

    @bt_uk absolutely disgusting customer service offered by BT on hold for over an hour to be told we are putting you straight through to the loyalty team so you will not have wait that was 20 minutes ago.....

  • RDodsworth1 Rebecca C 💙💙💙 (@RDodsworth1) reported

    @Taj_Ali1 @CWUnews And my elderly parents' phone line has been out of order for 2 days as are the lines of their neighbours - @bt_uk what is being done to sort this out please? (Problems in the ME17 postcode nr Maidstone)

  • emchi Emma Chittenden (@emchi) reported

    perhaps if @bt_uk didn't subject its customers to really **** pop music on hold they could reduce the £70 they're ripping me off by a month (currently questioning why I don't cut my bill by 50% and move to @skytv ) given my broadband has already gone down 3 times this morning
