  • 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

  • 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.

    @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.

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

    @bt_uk Can I cancel my bt tv package

  • 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 :)

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

    @bt_uk Dear BT - I am a loyal customer of many years. my credit profile has been destroyed by a default over a bill that occurred when switching to EE from Bt direct over a miscommunication and your team are refusing to help me. I am going to lose my house. Please intervene 💗😭

  • 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 Has yours just crashed? Mine has gone down

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

    @bt_uk Still terrible

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • 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!!

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

    @bt_uk Still having issues this is day 3 now

  • 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

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

  • OseEyelashes Essex Eyes (@OseEyelashes) reported from Kelvedon, England

    @bt_uk Hi Rita - got text saying it now working but it isn’t. Also service status says everything ok but it isn’t. I need this sorting/ I’m getting massive amounts of stress over this to do with my work. Please can u sort/find out what is going on

  • sophieparker182 Sophie Parker (@sophieparker182) reported

    So I’m actually getting stronger Wi-Fi through connecting to my neighbours connection, than my own that I pay £40 a month for. Not even the compensation they’ve promised me has come through yet after nearly 3 months of broken connection. Disappointed doesn’t cover it. @bt_uk 🙁🙁

  • xTeacherTx xTx (@xTeacherTx) reported

    @bt_uk Hi there, my internet is not connecting to my devices and my disc is flashing blue! I don't know what is wrong and can't find any help online! Please help! xTx

  • ryanvdorgan Ryan Dorgan (@ryanvdorgan) reported

    @bt_uk Good Morning! Can you please look into the issue surrounding the broadband cable and pole outage in the E12 6TY area? This fix is taking rather long and is now causing disruption. I cannot understand why residential issues take so long to resolve.

  • bsjkupo Fight the pain away, my Brad is in ruins (@bsjkupo) reported

    Thanks @bt_uk for putting our router behind a CG-NAT because now we can't play D&D with our friends, I can't host any video games and our internet is noticeably slower 😡 If I didn't have to have your service, I would go elsewhere in a heartbeat.

  • jaygardner__ Jay Gardner (@jaygardner__) reported

    @bt_uk trying to buy a tv deal that ends at 12am but the website is down, any suggestions?

  • TweetSickness NikolaS (@TweetSickness) reported

    @LondonLions @KKBuducnostVOLI @btsport 7 points in 1st QT, are you kidding me? How can you be THAT bad.... No comment. I hope you fail in every game like in this.

  • SoSallyHome sally-in-the-shire (@SoSallyHome) reported

    @bt_uk Try just resolving your mis selling. I have an ongoing complaint re my new contract. I’m about to trigger my 14 day cooling off as it’s not what you promised.

    @sophieparker182 @bt_uk Idea: help pay for your neighbors and cancel yours.
