    @btbusinesscare Bt business 0800800156 they said they would call back if the line got disconnected. No call back was received. I'd like to cancel the service please as I was hoping to postpone the installation but after a disappointing experience would prefer not to continue with it

    Rebecca Irvine (@RebIrvine) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk on our 30th cal day with no Internet; BT advisors have stated the fault is with @OpenreachHelp but your Internal systems are not talking to oneanother effectively leaving us with no information on the nature of the problem. The estimated fix date goes up weekly. Ideas?

  • darth_noga
    Noga Fett (@darth_noga) reported from Barry, Wales

    Absolutely shocking service from @virginmedia a 47% price increase for a customer of over 25 years and would rather lose a customer than give us a deal that new customers get. @BTCare @SkyHelpTeam can you do any better?

    @btsport box office to watch ufc is total bull shit when I pay for bt sports to watch ufc and then you pick and choose for us to pay again then for main events !! Piss take 😤! #bt #ufc

  • starr3126
    Gareth Starr (@starr3126) reported from Weston-super-Mare, England

    @bt_uk I find since we've had BT Internet it's very poor. Had it installed as Sky didn't do fibre in our area. Trouble with initial installation, which was eventually fixed. WiFi drops out daily, lags when the boys play the xbox or if I'm streaming via the PlayStation. #poor

    Premiership coverage is so much better on @btsport than @SkySportsPL at the moment, more polished, better interviews, less stupid playground style questions by pundits.

    @seimon76 @privilegecafe_ @DC_Wales Try the #DevicesDotNow campaign from @futuredotnowuk which we have been supporting at @bt_uk - with devices going to @Online_Centres - longer term, it may be worth considering joining the network - pob lwc. #digitalinclusion

  • Statto1927
    Simon Hiscocks (@Statto1927) reported from Barry, Wales

    Commentator on this match just apologised if any Portuguese speakers are hearing any “fruity” language as can hear players clearly. Going to be a nightmare for @SkySports @btsport commentators when UK football restarts. Will be continually apologising for bad language 🤬

    @bt_uk Hey there! No it’s still not working 🥺 however, I’m moving out of my house tomorrow and Into my new one. I’ve already spoke to an advisor about this a few weeks back but I’m not sure what to do? There’s no point ringing for an engineer when I’m moving. Shall we DM?

  • Npteggchaser
    Darren Little (@Npteggchaser) reported from Victoria, Wales

    @bt_uk having trouble with our home broadband. Have followed your advice on texting a number, but no reply & still the same. Also, can't access own account either, even after pin number for resetting password. Can you please assist? Is there any phone number I can ring? Thanks.

  • ibsen67
    Alwyn (@ibsen67) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Just reported scam automated phone call telling me my BT service will be terminated, to @BTCare. Its quite a realistic call with strict tone that u feel u should follow instructions. Did 1471 and number that called me was 01816792513. Clearly scam that's an old London area code

  • martzreed1975

    @btsport @btsportfootball what I would change in football. Cancel injury time and adopt rugby rules. Clock stops at half time and fulltime and whistle blows when ball out of play.

  • Phillip16484278
    Phillip Thompson (@Phillip16484278) reported

    @bt_uk I’ve been a BT customer for many years. It would appear you value new customers rather than retaining new ones. There’s a monthly difference of £5. Rather lose a customer I would think that you would match the price. Apparently not. Crazy business model.

  • tringgooner
    Chris (@tringgooner) reported

    @bt_uk I think anyone would be unhappy don’t you? Messed around, then asked for a £20 deposit to that you will hold onto for up to 6 months. It’s a bloody disgrace. That is no way to treat any customer. And you know it.

  • robincornelius
    Robin Cornelius (@robincornelius) reported

    Terrible day for getting work done today @bt_uk internet is down as there is planned maintenance that no one was informed about and no @ThreeUKSupport mobile data at work despite 3-4 bars of signal. This happens too often on your network had to go for a drive to get data

  • Magellanic80
    Miss🐧Magellanic🐧 (@Magellanic80) reported

    Hi @bt_uk Need a bit of help please. I've been send 5 emergency backup line telephones, when I only need one. I'm regrestered as a vulnerable customer. How do I go about sending them back and stopping further deliveries. Thanks

  • bartman6669
    Bartman6669 (@bartman6669) reported

    @bt_uk MUST DO BETTER. Charging my mother whose husband is terminally ill £75 a month for broadband. Called them and they stated best they can do is £52 when offering NEW customers £29. 40 years a customer and they don’t care about her. @telegraph @TheSun

    @bt_uk Phoned you close to ten times. And to be fair if our postcode wasn't so limited I'd not be using your trash service. But is what it is.

    @bt_uk There is no point they are useless, no help whatsoever.

    SparkyDuck 🐸 (@SuperSparkyDuck) reported

    @bt_uk do your executive complaints team just ignore emails requesting I be contacted? Ive requested calls twice in the space of two days and neither have happened. My internet is still down. Its been 3 weeks. Sort. It. Out.

  • thempstead
    Tim Hempstead (@thempstead) reported

    @bt_uk And that's the problem, it never does change ... for years and years "If you go with Halo 3 + when you get fttp then you should get a free upgrade. That should happen in 12 months" Yeah, didn't happen
