    The ref and VAR taking so long to come to a decision has broken @btsport #Victory #ALeague

  • 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?

  • ippyfuzion Leon Ip (@ippyfuzion) reported from Newport, Wales

    @bt_uk No known issue. Since there was BT van outside my home doing some sort of upgrade on the copper wires of the area. Internet been very poor. Already replaced router twice. When gaming on PC with ethernet cable plug in and someone makes a WhatsApp call my ping spikes to 500ms!

  • photographyrsp Rob S Photography (@photographyrsp) reported from Porth, Wales

    Dear @bt_uk It has been over week since I’ve had a mobile signal at home! My postcode is CF39 9HL - I had to find out for myself that maintenance is being carried out to rectify a problem, what’s happening now? Also, will I get a refund? Thank you!

  • jaisullivan Jai Sullivan (@jaisullivan) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @MicrosoftHelps Hi, it was bought via @BTCare on 19/10/2020. The model is 1679 and it’s definitely not as a result of any settings issue. It’s a physical problem with the device.

  • julianevans11 Julian Evans 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@julianevans11) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk If you provided the service I’m paying for I wouldn’t have to use my mobile data. I’m meant to be working from home tonight and tomorrow night. Do you want to tell my boss I can’t because I don’t have sufficient internet access??

  • CitrusArtsUK Citrus Arts UK (@CitrusArtsUK) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    I had at least 3 conversations with staff saying this wouldn't happen, but it happened anyway. Now 3 weeks later of broken promises after broken promise they still can't re-connect us. @bt_uk this is total incompetence and foot dragging to repair your mistakes.

  • Smilers_Coffee Rich M (@Smilers_Coffee) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    @btbusinesscare Just messaged but I would still like to cancel at this point

  • Smilers_Coffee Rich M (@Smilers_Coffee) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    @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

  • RebIrvine 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?

  • TheExiledRobin The Exiled Robin (@TheExiledRobin) reported from Llantrisant, Wales

    If it wasn’t bad enough watching this it’s made so much worse with this TV coverage. Please never let BT Sport have cricket again 😩 @btsport #ashes @Channel7

  • RedhillsAnnie Pauline Lomax (@RedhillsAnnie) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @Sean4Llandaff @cardiffcouncil There is work happening updating the @bt_uk network on Ely Rd. The newly multi-patched surfaces are now uneven trip hazards. In France councils coordinate with utilities, so that the paths are not lifted and patched continuously. Can we do better?

  • CitrusArtsUK Citrus Arts UK (@CitrusArtsUK) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    @btbusinesscare What could I put in a DM that isn't already in my Tweets? I've even include a Complaint Reference number for you.

  • photographyrsp Rob S Photography (@photographyrsp) reported from Porth, Wales

    @bt_uk I have Kevin, thanks for the reply.. is there an issue in my area?

  • SamSmithHiggins Sam Smith-Higgins (@SamSmithHiggins) reported from Henllys, Wales

    Shocking service from @bt_uk - no phone or internet for a week! Vulnerable adult here and nobody cares! welfare - ref C37677360 - only comms I'm getting is from Dave at @OpenreachHelp ! Sort it out BT!

  • johnsey80 Steve Johns (@johnsey80) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    I'm not a @bt_uk customer but spoke to Payel via their chat service today to help my sister out. Above and beyond customer service, a credit to the company. Thank you Payel & BT

  • BigBernie4 Greg (Big Bernie) MW7BUF 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇵🇸 (@BigBernie4) reported from St. Julians, Wales

    @bt_uk no service all afternoon in the NP19 7LT area. Checked the status page, no known issues apparently. Tried to speak with an advisor, and there are none available. What's happening please?

  • julianevans11 Julian Evans 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@julianevans11) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk How about you just provide the service we’re paying for…

  • Gavinallen Gavin Allen (@Gavinallen) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @btsport make it as hard as possible to leave. No way to cancel via the app, live chatbot says it can’t perform that function. BT person on phone says I have to call my bank to put a bar on the DD they set up. How does a company with service this bad have any customers?

  • cymruchris Chris Griffiths 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@cymruchris) reported from Church Village, Wales

    @bt_uk I've just released I'm being charged for a sim that I asked to be disconnected months ago. Can you help please?

  • RossDonoghue Ross Donoghue ⭐️⭐️ PSN: Lycandon (@RossDonoghue) reported

    @BTCare My internet is dropping multiple times daily. Solid purple light followed by flashing orange, then orange and finally back to blue. No stability at all and an engineer was only here 2-3 weeks ago!

  • sspriggy Simon Spriggs (@sspriggy) reported

    @bt_uk how do you expect a pensioner to have to change 1. their homehub plus 2 connect old landline phones to the new “digital voice” service, with very little warning.. This hasn’t been thought through at all and potentially will leave my mum without a phone. Really poor guys.

  • chris_greany Chris Greany 🕳🕳 (@chris_greany) reported

    @crochetjenny @bt_uk Customer service all but disappeared during Covid last year...but it is cut completley now although we are almost out of restrictions

  • Dunkerinho Dunkerinho (@Dunkerinho) reported

    @ITV online player has been completely shocking for years, the euros just highlights this. @btsport have it sussed and @BBCSport do it well for a free service (with no ads), do better ITV. #EURO2020 #FRASUI
