• 
  Citrus Arts UK (@CitrusArtsUK) reported 47 seconds ago 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.

  @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?

  Don Maidment (@DonKiano) reported 11 minutes ago from Maesycwmmer, Wales

  @btsport The worst and toughest customer service experience I’ve ever had. 40 minutes of my life talking to an operator that had got no nearer to resolving my issue. Absolute awful service. Just ordered the monthly package tonight, paid £25. cancelled same night at a £25 loss

  @EE a few weeks back I could watch BTSport on my Xbox or Fire TV, now I can do neither without being told I need to upgrade my subscription. Can you help please?

  Mike Houghton (@MHswans) reported 27 minutes ago from Cardiff, Wales

  Hey @bt_uk I’ve just had a call from a lady claiming to be BT Open Reach & there is a problem with my internet connection, I need to access my computer whilst on the phone with me to show me and fix the problem. As I’m with @virginmedia I’m guessing this is a scam. Am I right?

  Nickynackynoo (@nicnacnoopixs) reported 28 minutes ago 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

  Alwyn (@ibsen67) reported 30 minutes ago 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

  Dave Maydew MW0DCM (@dave_maydew) reported 32 minutes ago from Tylorstown, Wales

  @bt_uk @OpenreachHelp cabinet, it seemed all he wanted to do was run a speed test and tell us that the line was ok and off he went! Excuse me for this as I had the same issue and it took me 2 years to get the line replaced, I'm ready to get the same done here as it seems each

  Ryan Price (@ryanprice1927) reported 35 minutes ago 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

  lowri anne williams (@lowri_anne) reported 46 minutes ago 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

  Shaun Porter (@srp0000) reported 47 minutes ago 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.

  OzUrfa (@OzUrfaCardiff) reported 47 minutes ago from Beechwood, Wales

  @btbusinesscare hi bt have you got any idea to stop charge the shops for linerental. Because shop is closed any many other company are not changing the costumer due to covid. I have a restaurant and closed down temporarily but im still paying bt

  Leon Ip (@ippyfuzion) reported 48 minutes ago 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!

  Neil 'DBtC' (@crfc1876) reported 53 minutes ago 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

• 
  Giggsy (@DjGiggsy) reported 53 minutes ago 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

• 
  Neil 'DBtC' (@crfc1876) reported 54 minutes ago 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...

• 
  Simon Hiscocks (@Statto1927) reported 57 minutes ago 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 🤬

  James (@sausagenmash) reported 2 minutes ago

  @leedvnprt @bt_uk BT are aware of the issues, they just don't know what the problem is, so they can't fix it at the moment. Haven't been able to use My BT or access BT or EE wi-fi hotspots due e while now.

  madmax889 (@madmax889) reported 2 minutes ago

  @bt_uk So I have to pay to call you on a premium number from a non bt mobile (I don’t use the landline with you) for an issue your end as never had a problem logging in before.

  Nikki (@Nikki_Lou1922) reported 5 minutes ago

  @bt_uk We didn’t receive a bill! Direct debit was set up yet you never took any payments just discounted my services and added a late payment fee! Your error not mine! Yes it’s only £7.50 but it’s £7.50 that shouldn’t have been added to the bill!

  trevor rhodes (@trevjrho) reported 8 minutes ago

  @bt_uk The many BT "guides" I've spoken to have been pleasant and tried to help but are constrained by a system that frankly doesn't work in customers interests. Particularly so in the case of older customers.

  Damon Cochrane (@DamonCochrane1) reported 9 minutes ago

  @bt_uk @ee Both My BT or the ee app won't let me track my order. Both apps are crap.

  Sue Alexander (@EphemeralArc) reported 10 minutes ago

  @bt_uk Last Wednesday, my elderly mother and I phoned BT about the new digital landline service. Everything was arranged for the 28th August. Today, we received a letter from BT saying 'Sorry you're leaving' and a letter from EE who seem to assume we're changing to them. WTF?

  @bt_uk @Beji218888 Your service checker is saying your system is down and your service centres won’t have any more information. This is 2026
