  • kateMorris102 Kate Morris (@kateMorris102) reported from London, England

    @bt_uk Dear BT the service is certainly not a download speed of 8.94. This is an ongoing problem. Pls can you let me know what your tests showed?

  • Huskymannia Alan Vincent (@Huskymannia) reported from London, England

    @England @_DeclanRice @bt_uk Didn't realise he played, never heard his name at all

  • DannyDrury Daniel Drury (@DannyDrury) reported from Billericay, England

    @bt_uk internet been down all day today, not the first time either. Both Working from home and now both lost a days pay. Really not impressed

  • MarionPettet Marion Pettet 💙 (@MarionPettet) reported from Kelvedon Hatch, England

    Thank you @bt_uk for helping me. It seems that I wasn't correct as they resolved the issue within their time frame & I wasn't entitled. (The wording could be clearer though.) They also compensated me for a missed visit. I apologize.

  • Garyonline1 Gary dorrington (@Garyonline1) reported from Chipping Ongar, England

    @btsportfootball @btsport Anthony taylor if thats a penalty for PSG then the game is dead. Go and hang your head in shame

  • Bull_Diggy Bull Diggy #GSBOUT (@Bull_Diggy) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @bt_uk my internet is down, I’m stuck in with 2 kids on lock down, and after nearly 45 minutes on the phone you still have not answered. Absolutely disgusting customer service 😡😡😡😡😡

  • bethanchloes Bethan Chloe (@bethanchloes) reported from Billericay, England

    @bt_uk do not understand the mental stress they are causing with incorrectly charging me over triple the amount they should every month. 0 help from customer services or complaints. Where do I go from here?

  • Enge21 Enge Gray (@Enge21) reported from Great Dunmow, England

    @londonirish ********? My @btsport box ******* died this afternoon so didn’t see it.

  • Verscuse 🏳️‍🌈 James 🏳️‍🌈 (@Verscuse) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @KillerKoalaz @bt_uk Hmm... There's various things you can try to see if it on your network or the actual connection

  • COLFESeconomics COLFESeconomics (@COLFESeconomics) reported from London, England

    @BTCare need urgent help. Builders have inadvertently taken out phone cable so have no phone/internet. Please help!

  • MarionPettet Marion Pettet 💙 (@MarionPettet) reported from Kelvedon Hatch, England

    When you're supposed to get compensation for a missed appointment or service why do we have to "claim" it & why is the "claim" window time limited? Perhaps @bt_uk can explain, especially as they boast about it.

  • howiesway Darren (@howiesway) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @BTCare I have received calls 2 days in a row claiming my PC has a malware issue. I have hung up on both calls, I am assuming this is a scam. This seems to be on the increase.

  • Therockstar111 Rowan Richards (@Therockstar111) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @bt_uk Can you tell us all actually what has happened to be broadband network in the Chelmsford area and approximately how long will service return to normal so we can make arrangements please?

  • RetrogamesNow Roly's Arcade (@RetrogamesNow) reported from Brentwood, England

    @BTCare we are at our wits end with your customer service. You continually cancel our appointments as you say our service is fixed but it’s INTERMITTENT! And you have already admitted it’s a terrible service, and every weekend regular as clockwork you cancel our next engineer!

  • Lochlanndg Lochlann (@Lochlanndg) reported from London, England

    @SkySports really haven’t got the hang of the recap option like @btsport have - when I click on the red card incident I want to see what happened, not just the referee waving the card…

  • Cover4Caravans Richard Burgess (@Cover4Caravans) reported from Billericay, England

    Why am I surprised? Online account with @btsport I can do anything other than cancel my account! At £36 a month we don’t think is good value but they make it so difficult to cancel. Shame the FCA don’t regulate them!

  • kiekyobadeo KX (@kiekyobadeo) reported from London, England

    For a company that prides themselves as Europe’s largest telecoms service provider, @bt_uk have the most lousy customer service team in history! If I go into detail on what I’ve been through!! All because of one master socket install. Which mind you still hasn’t been resolved.

  • kiekyobadeo KX (@kiekyobadeo) reported from London, England

    IF YOU’RE LOOKING FOR BROADBAND , DO NOT GO WITH @bt_uk !! THE WORST COMPANY EVER!!! Been waiting at my flat since 8am, only to call up and find out the appointment was not booked correctly !!! Everyone that works at @bt_uk clearly have an IQ of a toddler.

  • christianralph (life (@christianralph) reported

    @bt_uk any updates on the fibre outages in E17? It's been down over 6 hours. I can't use the online tool because it requires a landline number which I don't have!?
