    @bt_uk We haven't had internet for the last 3 days, still don't and your customer service has been awful. We all need the internet in the house to work and fulfill tasks but your company just doesn't seem bothered at all.

    @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?

    @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!

    @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

    @jackfb22 @btsport @btsportrugby @virginmedia Glad it's on channel 4 too today. Even if it's not so good commentary. Has to be a feed issue somewhere, because the adverts were fine.

  • 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.

    @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.

    @btsport sort the commentary audio out! Sounds like Sav and Co are commenting from someone's front room. Terrible! Dead atmosphere.

    6 calls 3 live chats 2 texts 1 complaint cut off 3 times. Still no wifi and continual landline issues for an 82 year old lady who has been shielding for 22 weeks. Worst service in a pandemic from an essential service @bt_uk #btbad #cutoff #isolated direct reply plz

    @bt_uk the light on my hub is purple and has been all afternoon. I’ve turned it on and off multiple times. Still no internet. Can someone help me please!

    Let’s hope the UK market won’t tolerate the greed from @btsport and let’s hope that the ratings were poor. #GreedyBTsports

    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

  • 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

    @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

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

    @btsport sort your streaming service out 🤔

  • 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

    @bt_uk hi BT, I’m still awaiting a response re: my complaint. This is nearly two weeks on and you’ve done roughly NOTHING to connect me to your network.

    @dedmans @bt_uk Cannot be worse than BT. Impossible. Their customer service and levels of competency are off the charts appalling. No idea how they even run a business.

    @bt_uk shocking service not had internet or Tv for 3 weeks, engineer arrives last night said in the service box repaired issued less than 15 hours normal service resumed and in tv or internet, and now no one will pick up the phone, quick to charge you the bill ... @EE @numan64

  • vickiadhmsutton
    Victoria Sutton (@vickiadhmsutton) reported

    Shame on you @bt_uk. When people lose someone they love, they need support not to be told their next of kin need to sign up to a 2yr contract to reduce the monthly bills. Utterly disgraceful. Cannot wait to cancel your services and NEVER use you again. You should be ashamed.
