    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

    @peteclase @btsport @virginmedia Yes it’s awful. Gone to @Channel4 instead. @btsportrugby @btsport aren’t bothered it seems #EDIvMUN

    Shaun Porter (@srp0000) reported from Newport, Wales

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

    @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?

  • 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?

  • 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.

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

  • 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

    NATALIE BALL 🛡️ (@Natalieball1984) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk absolutely appalling customer service to my mum who had shielded since March 2020! She can't use BT sports anymore and BT are saying £130+ to remove it!! She doesn't have any money! She is stressed, immune compromised and BT drop this on her! Shameful!

  • 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...

  • UKEmpLawyer
    James Moss (@UKEmpLawyer) reported from Allt-yr-Yn, Wales

    @omitbdf @bt_uk The person I spoke to from @bt_uk, who eventually called me back, did not know what LOS meant on the Openreach ONT. I had to Google it & informed him it meant Loss of Signal. Pathetic service so far - we still have no WiFi.

    Hadley 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇪🇺☠️🌈 (@ferch_Cenydd) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @btbusinesscare Oh, you have no idea how much patience I’ve had to excercise with BT for a few years. Improvements seem to made though, sensible call staff recognising a problem straight off, competent engineer sent ASAP. Just need to sort out recurring problem with local telegraph pole!

  • STEVEOLUCKY7
    Steveo Davies (@STEVEOLUCKY7) reported from Caerphilly, Wales

    Wtf @btsport watched the @ufc main event this morning on record from last night and the recording ends at the last bell , I dont even get to see the winner of potential FOTY...

  • 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!

  • ryanprice1927
    Ryan Price (@ryanprice1927) reported from Llantwit Fardre, Wales

    Time to cancel @SkySports and @btsport as I am funding this bollox. £80 million ffs. Better centre halves in the Rhondda

  • 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?

  • dave_maydew
    Dave Maydew MW0DCM (@dave_maydew) reported from Tylorstown, Wales

    @SteveZPU @bt_uk @OpenreachHelp As they've noticed that the neighbors are getting 20-30mb faster than we are stuck at 24mb!! It could either be a drop line issue or the connection between one of the other poles to the one we're connected to.

  • TNevillee
    Tom Neville (@TNevillee) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    Honestly have the worst internet in the whole of South Wales, contacted @bt_uk so many times to sort it but **** all has been done. Joke of a company

  • murfilicious
    Chris Murphy (@murfilicious) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk I am still having issues yes, someone at EE is currently investigating whether or not I have the package on my contract (I do)

  • iainmspillane

    @btsport Having a few audio issues with the commentary here. A few words are getting garbled and I can’t understand most of what they’re saying. Can you ask Fletcher to take his tongue out of Messi’s arse and that should clear it all up?

    arthurbikemad (@arthurbikemad) reported

    @btbusinesscare This issue is still bot resolved. I find it hard to understand why BT fail to see my issue, I was sold WiFi handsets, there are no WiFi handsets, we now have limited range, BT are now suggesting that I am the issue. Payment is canceled and I still have no resolve. HELP.

    We’re really sorry to all our customers affected by the ongoing internet outage. Our service has been disrupted and, despite relying on BT Business for support, we’ve been left without the help we urgently need. We know this has caused frustration and inconvenience @bt_uk

  • CazMorgan5
    Caz Morgan (@CazMorgan5) reported

    @bt_uk you still haven’t fixed what you did. Admitted to accidentally switching off our broadband and my elderly boss and his son were up till 4am at @OrionCinema trying to find an alternative way to keep our business running. We’re barely keeping our heads above water. HELP!!!

    BT Business strikes again. Totally unable to provide the service they promised or bill correctly. 2 years of hell at their hands. @btbusinesscare you really don’t. Broken promise after, broken promise.
