  • _LannyWalker Lanny (@_LannyWalker) reported from London, England

  • jlarkin123 The Power 1962 (@jlarkin123) reported from Wickford, England

    ******* BT pundits are so Poor/biased it’s unreal - thankfully don’t pay for this **** on a regular basis @btsport

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

    @KillerKoalaz @bt_uk Perhaps a device or person on your network is using it heavily at this point?

  • 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…

  • hwrightxo Hannah Wright (@hwrightxo) reported from Thundersley, England

    @bt_uk The 4g mini hub you’ve sent me isn’t working. It doesn’t show up when I search for it under Wifi. Tried a hard reset & held the button down. Any ideas?

  • luke_kennedy luke (@luke_kennedy) reported from Braintree, England

    Love how iv waited a year to cancel @btsport (July)and yet arsenal qualifying for champions League means I have to renew the crap 😭

  • Mork4mindy Garry Harvey (@Mork4mindy) reported from Great Baddow, England

    @krishan_davis Yes, let down by @BTSport the commentary is awful and so biased with 4-5 repeats of dismissals in an over. Thank God for TMS commentary. #Awful

  • profmyster21 Abbi (@profmyster21) reported from London, England

    @bt_uk Is the wifi down in SE6???

  • 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?

  • RWheelhouse1 rachel Wheelhouse (@RWheelhouse1) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @bt_uk is it is acceptable for elderly customers to be disregarded as they do not use a mobile phone? Engineers due 8-1 today, agent I'm speaking to today has IT issues and keeps getting disconnected... I need to speak to a manager ASAP as agent isn't doing that

  • 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!

  • DodgsonStuart Stuart Valentine Dodgson (@DodgsonStuart) reported from Stansted Mountfitchet, England

    @bt_uk Thank you. Problem solved. That was good customer service.

  • NicoSCMP Nick Atkin (@NicoSCMP) reported from London, England

    Have tried to resist the urge to go Full Karen on @bt_uk. Phoned them 2 weeks ago to tell them my parents’ home phone line has been cut in half and broadband is down. Have booked 4 appointments with their engineers, each time they haven’t turned up or said anything. shite 🗑

  • _LannyWalker Lanny (@_LannyWalker) reported from London, England

    Why raise my hopes with an installation date when the pole issue was obviously known beforehand? Now I have to wait on slo mo copper wires again @bt_uk

  • DanHarvey74 Harvs (@DanHarvey74) reported from Rayleigh, England

    @GaryLineker @btsport Is that your "bad" toe?

  • adekoya_k MISS OLUBUNMI (@adekoya_k) reported from London, England

    @bt_uk I have no Wi-Fi, so, I literally cannot watch anything on TV or on my tablet. My so called Halo Hub, just keeps flashing orange. When I called BT, I was told that BT closes at 20:00 🕗 on Saturday’s. Are you not supposed to be open 24 hours to solve problems like these?

  • adekoya_k MISS OLUBUNMI (@adekoya_k) reported from London, England

    @bt_uk It is absolutely ridiculous, how difficult it is to contact BT, if one has a problem or a simple inquiry. And to think, BT are supposed to be Trial Blazers in this field. Anyway, I need to speak 🗣 to someone about a refund for an Installation that was not carried out.

  • 2m0sql Peter Goodhall (2M0SQL) (@2m0sql) reported from Elgin, Scotland

  • Pitlessie1 Pitlessie Village Inn (@Pitlessie1) reported from Pitlessie, Scotland

    @England @bt_uk @JHenderson Damn! Shaw narrowly missed out

  • OLLIE530 PAUL (@OLLIE530) reported from City of Kingston upon Hull, England

    @markwools @btsport **** them. They get to watch 90% of the events at a reasonable time! I’d pay at 8pm. Charging the U.K. ppv is a joke.

  • Litterwatch1 Litter Watch (@Litterwatch1) reported from Birmingham, England

    @bt_uk @btbusinesscare Have resolved our internet & phone issue. We are back up & running. Well, virtually we are.

  • KurtMCR Kurt ハイアム (@KurtMCR) reported from Salford, England

    The @btsport app had @WWE #RAW ready to stream early this morning. Down to 2hrs with the advert breaks taken out. Hardly seems worth recording and hitting fast forward when the app has it all done for me!

  • rsborrett Richard Borrett (@rsborrett) reported from Hitchin, England

    @bt_uk my mother in law is a vulnerable adult with a careline system. Phone line has been broken for over day. Your website wont allow us to flag the fault number for urgent attention and there’s no contact numbers. HELP!

  • DJRonanDevitt Ronan Devitt 🔋☀️🌊☕️☕️💙💛 (@DJRonanDevitt) reported from Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown, Leinster

  • 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!

  • 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...
