    @jimwilkz @btsport Worst part of it is Glenn McGrath attempting to be nice and gracious when talking about England. Jeez, he was the biggest 'Pommie' basher of them all!

  • TruckSM24
    Graham Burton (@TruckSM24) reported from Blackburn, England

    @bt_uk a communication company that doesn’t know the meaning of the word. Disgraceful service.

    When I signed up for a new broadband service with BT, it said I would receive a £110 reward card. Never heard anything since and when I go to claim on my account, it’s not listed, any ideas @BTCare ?

    Hello @bt_uk and @WeAreOpenreach how can it take 3 weeks , to not resolve a broadband dropping issue in a Manchester property. Our broadband is off.. and seemingly no-one know why.

  • samihowarth
    sami (@samihowarth) reported from Brinscall, England

    @bt_uk Not very helpful as that’s for broadband and phone line. I have no signal on my mobile phone?

  • jkisthe1
    Jonathan Kahn (@jkisthe1) reported from Salford, England

    Hi @btsport You are absolutely useless How does it take you a week to deal with an issue that's supposed to take 24 hours to resolve, with zero contact in that time

  • RunningMissM11

    @bt_uk is the service down today? My connection keeps dropping. It’s done so 8 times and it was doing it yesterday as well as Sunday.

  • IndomitableUK
    Indomitable Strength Barbell Club (@IndomitableUK) reported from Salford, England

    I’d personally like to thank @bt_uk for being the worst company I’ve ever dealt with. 2 months after my order & I’ve been messed around constantly with still no broadband or phone line. Nobody knows what’s going on. CCTV, card terminals and computer all left useless with no net.

  • AskTheShire
    The Shire (@AskTheShire) reported from Salford, England

    @bt_uk eventually get through and you guys tell me I'm wrong about my Internet intermittent issues your agents are rude and then hung up on me. 50 mins on the phone to be hung up on.

  • 1SuzanneDonovan
    Suzanne 🐝💙💫 (@1SuzanneDonovan) reported from Manchester, England

    @bt_uk hi, my elderly mum’s phone line is down. How can I report it?

  • karensskitchen
    do not touch that thermostat (@karensskitchen) reported from Manchester, England

    @bt_uk We can't get through on email or customer chat. Currently on hold on the phone. Is broadband down in M16, Manchester?

  • DidymusBrush
    Paul Holmes (@DidymusBrush) reported from Manchester, England

    @Darth_Vivid @virginmedia @bt_uk @TalkTalk @SkyUK It would be nice to get 100mb once. Never even had half of what we pay for. Wonder what @Offcom make of that...

  • AskTheShire
    The Shire (@AskTheShire) reported from Salford, England

    @bt_uk Ping goes does to 50k ms and then it drops off totally with no internet traffic as explained to your agent who told me it's WiFi. Its not I've got ping and traceroute data. There is an issue and to reiterate intermittently.

  • YawnoftheDad
    Anthony Crook (@YawnoftheDad) reported from Urmston, England

    @btsport @btsportfootball are you ever going to fix your app on #PS5?

  • ianrohdebell
    Ian Rohde-Bell (@ianrohdebell) reported from Manchester, England

    @bt_uk Thank you. It's very frustrating that this wasn't provided at time of sale. It also doesn't seem right that there is now an additional expense required to guarantee basic service that we used to be able to rely on.

  • Kat06075689
    Kat (@Kat06075689) reported

    @bt_uk down and we have a medical device that requires WiFi to measure a baby heart rate. Device won’t alarm if heart rate drops so essentially we can’t act right away should that happen. Fed up with BT now! Can I leave without a fee for this?

  • Baggieboy1888
    Steve George (@Baggieboy1888) reported

    @bt_uk paying refunds with a cheque. In 2026. Obviously their hope / expectation is that with ever fewer bank branches the recipient will deem it too much of a hassle to pay it in. Even for those that do they are earning interest until the cheque is cleared. Poor show.

  • eastwap
    Amanda Eastwood (@eastwap) reported

    @puddles46 @bt_uk So agree @bt_uk constantly closing complaints down without speak to customers. When they do speak to them, very uneducated in the situation. Just want to speak to a normal person 🤯

  • marksy316
    Marks (@marksy316) reported

    @FlynnRyanUK @bt_uk @skytv Awful decision, sky are shockingly bad to which I can finally leave now mid contract due to their incompetence. Sky will end up shafting you in no time

    @bt_uk Is there a widespread issue with BT email access today? Unable to login and I need to access my emails.

  • vcotton21
    Vicki (@vcotton21) reported

    @bt_uk Taken out new broadband with you last Friday and I’ve had nothing but trouble since connecting some of my devices & wifi frequently dropping out, previous Sky broadband handled it fine. Can’t log into my account, really unhappy. Do I have a 14day cooling off period?

  • AnneMurawski
    Anne Optimi-City (@AnneMurawski) reported

    @btbusinesscare 2/2 Phoned you on 0800800156, held on, connected after 16 minutes. Told him the problem, no reply then line went dead. What else can I do ?

  • IQuitMuskspace
    Mark Haynes (@IQuitMuskspace) reported

    @bt_uk I have now been branded as an abusive customer because I stayed my option the BT are idiots. I have abundant evidence to prove lies, incompetency and regulatory shortcomings. My service is still down and all you care about is hearing hurty words ... Try providing service!!!

  • sharpy741
    @sharpy74 (@sharpy741) reported

    @martinintune @bt_uk Do you have any local alternative? I’m baffled why people pay BT for poor service at inflated prices. There are so many new Fibre providers now offering a better service at much lower prices. The days of BT’s monopoly and ridiculous Line Rental charges are thankfully, over.

  • GalanthusA
    Chris (Christina) (@GalanthusA) reported

    @scubashark45 @bt_uk Unless you are happy to be without access to emails for hours (like today) I wouldn't recommend the switch. BT used to be good and worth paying extra for but not now. Been trouble since their EE merger and the fibre roll out.
