  • lowri_anne lowri anne williams (@lowri_anne) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @btsport let me cancel/freeze/suspend my contract. I’m a zero hours worker. Every penny counts. @SkySports & @PremierSportsTV have obliged. #DoTheRightThing #getamoralcompass #supplyteacher @huwbbc

  • crocker74 Ryan Crocker (@crocker74) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @btsport been trying to cancel or pause my subscription since football sent on hold. Phone lines jammed solid and No method via your website!!! Take a lead out of @sky book, and update your website. £36 a month for nothing! #Corvid19uk

  • 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 🤬

  • ricardofodol Richard A. Hughes (@ricardofodol) reported from Llanharan, Wales

    @VinSullivan @AIMS_Meat @btbusinesscare Yes, they're piss poor

  • DjGiggsy Giggsy (@DjGiggsy) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Why is it only now that I’ve thought about #MikeRiley using his self isolation to it’s full advantage. He could sit down & review the countless decisions that ‘his’ referees have f*cked up over the last 2 seasons. I’m sure @SkySports @btsport & @BBCSport could supply the footage

  • nicnacnoopixs Nickynackynoo (@nicnacnoopixs) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    @bt_uk what’s going on guys - after a run of two weeks and no internet issues now we’ve got nothing again !

  • JanineBates Janine Bates (@JanineBates) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk funny how you are supplying data to the nhs workers yet unable to help us switch from you to another provider in the designated time leaving our 15,500 patients unable to get through to us during the pandemic, when they need us most #rumneyprimarycarecentre

  • OzUrfaCardiff OzUrfa (@OzUrfaCardiff) reported from Beechwood, Wales

  • rubyrockcake111 Jo (@rubyrockcake111) reported from Barry, Wales

    @bt_uk @OpenreachHelp @WeAreOpenreach @BBCXRay @skytv No Broadband, no landline no downloads, no catchup etc, for 6 weeks. Every week it’s a different excuse. This week lightening strike! I’m getting really fed up. Please someone help.🤯

  • crfc1876 Neil 'DBtC' (@crfc1876) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @daviesjanet6 @bt_uk @Tommy_OConnor Yes, saw that in the thread, BT are being very dumb in this, they can no longer provide a service, through no fault of their own, but want to charge people to stop the package, Sky have shown far more decency and common sense

  • crfc1876 Neil 'DBtC' (@crfc1876) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk @Tommy_OConnor You should be ashamed writting that, no sports coverage due to most serious situation we are likely to face in peace time and you want to charge 😱😱😱 On the poor service list you go for when this is over...

  • lowri_anne lowri anne williams (@lowri_anne) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @btsport do the right thing and let us cancel our contract! I’m a zero hours worker and every penny counts. @SkySports and @PremierSportsTV have been more than fair #DoTheRightThing #getamoralcompass

  • wils82 jamie wilson (@wils82) reported from Weston-super-Mare, England

  • nicnacnoopixs Nickynackynoo (@nicnacnoopixs) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    @RichCounty27 @bt_uk Unbelievable honestly, we pay for the super fast broadband as we use it for home tv and both for work but am seriously considering moving now - another bloody week with no service and paying a fortune to run a hot spot thru my phone

  • nicnacnoopixs Nickynackynoo (@nicnacnoopixs) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    So after 2.5hrs of trying to source the issue and finally getting confirmation that our internet fault is outside of the house and down to @bt_uk have now been advised it’ll be fixed my 9th April - looks like we won’t be working from home this week then !😡 #time to change

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Welsh_Dad90 Ashley Perry🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@Welsh_Dad90) reported

    @bt_uk No, I've got an engineer here, to check what the problem is

  • MaitlandBen Ben Maitland (@MaitlandBen) reported

    Update - @bt_uk now think it’s acceptable to put phone down on someone and “close a complaint” despite doing nothing to address that complaint. And two weeks on we still don’t have broadband. Do they care? Not really.

  • brownlizjl Liz Brown (@brownlizjl) reported

    @bt_uk Sorry I am venting James but this is really disappointing. The service from some of the sales team is not true to the companies values, I have BT for my business too and was told utter lies by one of the team in a sad attempt to up sell, BT should be a brand people can trust!

  • brownlizjl Liz Brown (@brownlizjl) reported

    @bt_uk James there is no point we don’t have the cables down here to provide faster broadband and we are paying for fibre broadband. I am fuming my husband was sold a 36 month contract and now we are stuck because the confirmation email was sent to my daughter so I couldn’t cancel!

  • CatriRose Rosie (@CatriRose) reported

    @BTCare I've got an email saying my BT broadband and TV start tomorrow, but the engineer does not come until the 3rd Dec. I am not paying when I am not able to use the service - please advise? I also want to avoid the 1 hour telephone queue pls....

  • brownlizjl Liz Brown (@brownlizjl) reported

    @bt_uk Thanks I will put in a complaint about the cooling off period being sent to the wrong person as it’s not the billing account and my husband may be let in from the garden at some point! He will never make this mistake again. The dog house is very cold at this time of year!

  • macmorso Lee Morson (@macmorso) reported

    @bt_uk please contact me with regard to complaint reference VOL013-537030085981 number is 07814967620. You have failed to deliver broadband service to my new build as promised. Costing me a fortune in data. Having to travel to work as I have no broadband. Not good enough!!

  • RealSplinterUK David (SplinterUK) (@RealSplinterUK) reported

    I'm sorry @bt_uk for causing one of your team at technical support to have a giggle fit today. While trying to sort out a technical issue, I had a tub of paint delivered that needed the 14 layers of bubble wrap attacking to get it out. Then there was 6 layers of cling film, too.

  • ShaunFriend Shaun Friend (@ShaunFriend) reported

    @bt_uk Was just venting this is a serious issue affecting 280 numbers. I’m sure BT wholesale will pick it up when they feel like it.

  • Richard_Mead Richard Mead (@Richard_Mead) reported

    @bt_uk @bt_uk @WeAreOpenreach engineer came to install our new line (because you let someone take over our old one) and we don't have the right router. The minihib you sent us doesn't work. We now have three different phone numbers associated with our line .....
