  • Darkestfrost James bartlett (@Darkestfrost) reported from Braintree, England

    @T3RRAF0RM @StadiaWorks @Webby317 @bt_uk On my s10 plus it works great. Connection takes about 2-3 minutes to settle down (lag on controls) but after that I dont notice anything. Looks great on the little screen to! But I wouldn't pay for the service atm.

  • rando__ James (@rando__) reported from Eight Ash Green, England

    @bt_uk hi need to cancel an order with you, what’s the phone number please :)

  • xTerronga 𝖝𝕿𝖊𝖗𝖗𝖔𝖓𝖌𝖆 (@xTerronga) reported from Braintree, England

    @bt_uk Can I cancel my bt tv package

  • xTerronga 𝖝𝕿𝖊𝖗𝖗𝖔𝖓𝖌𝖆 (@xTerronga) reported from Braintree, England

    @bt_uk Still having issues this is day 3 now

  • BeOnTheRocks Jay O! (@BeOnTheRocks) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @bt_uk @MoneyTelegraph this is how BT are treating their loyal customers! I’m going to lose my house because of a default they put on my account - they never sent me a final bill to pay and my account doesn’t show any final bill owing! They refuse to help me smugly telling me my fault!

  • xTerronga 𝖝𝕿𝖊𝖗𝖗𝖔𝖓𝖌𝖆 (@xTerronga) reported from Maldon, England

    @bt_uk Still terrible

  • pseveruscarter 𓆙𝕻𝖆𝖎𝖌𝖊 𝕮𝖆𝖗𝖙𝖊𝖗 📚🦢 (@pseveruscarter) reported from Sudbury, England

    @KarimaAfc @bt_uk Has yours just crashed? Mine has gone down

  • SJWilding Simon Wilding🔸🇪🇺 (@SJWilding) reported from Eight Ash Green, England

    Absolutely shocking "help" from @bt_uk regarding a total **** up with a new broadband/landline order leaving a grieving widow basically alone and uncontactable. Thanks.

  • jta1497 Right Here Right Now.... (@jta1497) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @virginmedia @richardbranson @bt_uk virgin your broadband service in waltham Abbey is disgraceful, even though we have complained you fail to resolve my problems, and are no delivering on your own contract terms. I want this resolved or released frommy contract @poppy_tompkinsx

  • Darkestfrost James bartlett (@Darkestfrost) reported from Braintree, England

    @StadiaWorks @Webby317 @T3RRAF0RM @bt_uk No. Xcloud is using off site servers. Xcloud console streaming is using console hardware. No interest in stadia at all. I'm in the beta for xcloud and it runs seamlessly (for me) even when on a 4g network.

  • rando__ James (@rando__) reported from Eight Ash Green, England

    So back to the @bt_uk saga, ordered 12th sept, told engineer would install on 27th sept, no one turned up, phoned & told no network had been built & would get a phone call yesterday, didn’t happen. Called today & next update 9th November. Absolutely disgraceful.

  • pseveruscarter 𓆙𝕻𝖆𝖎𝖌𝖊 𝕮𝖆𝖗𝖙𝖊𝖗 📚🦢 (@pseveruscarter) reported from Sudbury, England

    @bt_uk Theres not, and we've been through all the steps. It's just honestly the worst Internet I've ever had.

  • JackHorrey Jack Horrey (@JackHorrey) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @btsport Hi,I am trying to freeze my £25 subscription but can’t reach anyone on the phone. My login details bring up my EE account which is free and I want to talk about my BT one. Help please!!

  • rando__ James (@rando__) reported from Eight Ash Green, England

    Shocking from @bt_uk ... mum and step dad ordered broadband 3 weeks ago for new property, engineer booked for today, doesn’t turn up. Ring them and told no network is built and won’t be for a while, yet website says everything’s up and running! Complaint made.

  • WestVodkadrink Marie Anderson (@WestVodkadrink) reported from Feering, England

    @btsport Absolute joke trying to get through to BT to cancel my BT sport subscription 😡🤬😡🤬

  • wilson_76 Neil Wilson (@wilson_76) reported from Chelmsford, England

    And the broadband goes down again........awesome stuff @bt_uk that’s double figures this year already. Shocking service as always........

  • LilyMaeSmith_ Lily Smith (@LilyMaeSmith_) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @bt_uk disgusting service for new customers. My grandparents who are in their 70/80’s ordered newest bt tv product a few weeks back ahead of them moving house. Only to find bt turned up at old address despite being told of new address and now refusing to come round TIL tues

  • wilson_76 Neil Wilson (@wilson_76) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @bt_uk so my internet goes down on NYE of all days and your ‘helpdesk’ is closed. what an absolute shambles!!

  • pseveruscarter 𓆙𝕻𝖆𝖎𝖌𝖊 𝕮𝖆𝖗𝖙𝖊𝖗 📚🦢 (@pseveruscarter) reported from Sudbury, England

    @KarimaAfc @bt_uk My router keeps going orange and its driving us nuts. The only consistent thing about BT broadband is that its been consistently **** since we got it

  • xTerronga 𝖝𝕿𝖊𝖗𝖗𝖔𝖓𝖌𝖆 (@xTerronga) reported from Braintree, England

    @bt_uk I'm having issues with internet speed again, this has been the past few days, I run a speed test but it says it's all fine, yet I cant load anything on wifi on my phone

  • Pinball_heart Erika Galli (@Pinball_heart) reported

    @bt_uk is phone signal out in the Brighton & Hove area? I cant make a call at all.

  • jmeweston Jo Weston (@jmeweston) reported

    @bt_uk If only a) BT Broadband worked (still waiting for switch on after 4 weeks) or b) the EE network were gd enough to work in its absence! I've hd no network in that time, I've hd to MOVE OUT OF MY NEW HOME to be able to work. I will settle for anyone else! On way to @Ofcom #BROKEN

  • SamSmithHiggins Sam Smith-Higgins (@SamSmithHiggins) reported

    @bt_uk @OpenreachHelp Im psychic. You'll never guess what happened - Nothing. Phone call tomorrow to update....on nothing. @bt_uk shocking. Getting laughable now.

  • scoobytunes bob black (@scoobytunes) reported

    @sixyardcecil @bt_uk They once took 3 weeks to fix mine even after they had identified it as an exchange fault on my second call. Hit them for a refund

  • lagomcomm Ben Love (@lagomcomm) reported

    @bt_uk Still no resolution or any promise fulfilled. Phone and internet completely cut off while trying to work from home. #BT blame #Openreach, it isn’t possible to complain direct to them... What would you do if this was #MikeGauterin’s account???

  • SaumenPanda Saumen Panda (@SaumenPanda) reported

    @bt_uk Hi @bt_uk, can you help please? Do you need any more information?

  • SaumenPanda Saumen Panda (@SaumenPanda) reported

    @bt_uk Yes, fault reported. But BT never meets the promised fix date based on my experience in last 3 months. Do you want the fault number?

  • Jaklloyd 𝕁𝕒𝕔𝕢𝕦𝕚 𝕃𝕝𝕠𝕪𝕕 (@Jaklloyd) reported from Horsham, England

    Congrats @bt_uk - you really are spectacularly inept! I’ve played nicely, waited patiently and spent hours on your chat function trying to resolve an issue. You’ve even closed the complaint (after taking no action!) I now have to resort to this. #customerservice #epicfail #bt

  • MaggicaUk La Maggica UK (@MaggicaUk) reported

    Folks I don’t know you but the @btsport streaming of @OfficialASRoma was spotless. Hearing about DAZN issues in Italy.

  • lotster Charlotte Dewsnap (@lotster) reported

    @bt_uk wow. The service I have received from you has been woeful. For a communications company you have a lot to learn. My business will be going elsewhere
