    How quickly can any other #internet providers get me on line - #sky #virgin ? Not @bt_uk and I’ll tell you why after 😡😡😡 back to my MP @JamesDalyMP for the second day for help !

    Craig Cooke (@storm_imaging) reported from Adlington, England

    @bt_uk hi. I moved home and had my services transferred. No problem. Today I have received an email saying I will be charged for ending the contract early and received another email about returning kit?

    @bt_uk Hi, my internet is running painfully slow - I’ve done a speed test that’s coming back at 32, but I can’t connect on my devices, also whilst watching Netflix/Prime it’s buffering. Could you arrange a booster for me so I can give that a try before finding a new provider?

    If I hear the commentators say Atlanta for ATALANTA one more time I'm going to lose my ****!!!! @btsport #AtalantaPSG #Atalanta #PSG

    Kirsty (@KirstyTonge) reported from Manchester, England

    @EE @btsport Think EE aren't what they used to be, I've sent 2 messages in the last 12hrs and not had a reply from them yet. Think their contracts are so overpriced now compared to other networks, such a shame as I have always thought they were the best network to be with. #dissapointed

  • femaledec
    Cheyvonne Bower (@femaledec) reported from Croft, England

    My anxiety is being tested by @bt_uk. Engineer failed to show yesterday and so no broadband today. 3 phone calls on hold for half an hour before being cut off. My heating, cat flap and printers are all flashing and nobody wants to help.

    Steve Mcmanaman is just cancer to my ears, how @btsport have not got rid of him yet I’ll never know!

  • cdyer291
    Craig Dyer (@cdyer291) reported from Bury, England

    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 ?

  • couser85
    Daniel Couser (@couser85) reported from Bury, England

    @bt_uk can’t get on a live chat! We can’t get so Wi-fi signal to the back bedrooms of the house. We’ve had the smart hub for the last 4 years is there an upgrade?

  • 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?

    @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!

    Anyone else having issues with #btsport tonight? Watching the United game and it keeps crashing with error code vc011 😡 My internet connection is not the issue here!!

    BTSport are poor. Any links?

  • theboytemps
    Andrew (@theboytemps) reported from Turton, England

    @bt_uk We did get through eventually, after well over an hour. I appreciate you are busy, but for the handler not to tell us after having waited 45 minutes to speak to him that he was transferring us to another queue & putting us on hold for another half hour was really poor service.

  • TimDuckworth7
    Tim Duckworth (@TimDuckworth7) reported from Bury, England

    Why have #BTSport got Owen Hargreaves on as a pundit? ******** relevance has he got? Moved to #Manchester and spent 6 years on the sick.

    @bt_uk internet’s been dropping out for over 12 hrs. Done all the tests and resets and it’s all saying it’s ok (it isn’t). I’m not going to be able to work without internet access, can someone help please.

  • miguelinho2910
    Michael (@miguelinho2910) reported from Middleton, England

    @bt_uk my 1571 service isn't working properly. I press 1 to listen to messages, it says I'm pressing 8. I say "one" after the beep, it says I'm saying "eight". I assumed it was my actual phone but I've now replaced it with a BT one and it does the same. Help please!

  • GFX2001
    Ian Robson (@GFX2001) reported

    @Ofcom @bt_uk I do not understand why it is so difficult to report Nuisance Calls / Hang-ups. You have to complete a very lengthy form for a Call. And each Call you have to re-enter all the details again. And then to get to the "I Am Not Robot" pictures that don't work.

  • rodrrobson
    Rod Robson (@rodrrobson) reported

    @bt_uk On line service wasn't very good I disconnected overnight. When I woke up I plugged it back. It's now returned to blue. All good thanks.

  • teacherCate1
    Catherine (@teacherCate1) reported

    @bt_uk It’s not an issue of him not being on top of bills and it definitely needs looking into - he’s over £800 in credit yet he’s still having more money taken from him every month. There is no need for any phone provider to be charging such a huge amount for calls etc.

  • nshukla86
    Niraj Shukla (@nshukla86) reported

    @btbusinesscare Hey BT, Not sure how to reach out. I am unable to access my account on BT app. It authenticates well, means no issues with id/ password etc. But some how apps don't work. Have reinstalled the app but still the same error. My web login is working though! Pls help.

  • trevjrho
    trevor rhodes (@trevjrho) reported

    @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.

  • RaeRubyRaeK
    RaeRubyRae (@RaeRubyRaeK) reported

    @MartinSLewis Shame they don’t kick @bt_uk in the nuts just as hard, they’re vile & have been getting away with crap for far too long!

  • wendholden
    Wendy Holden (@wendholden) reported

    Three days without phones or the internet after a tree fell and not one word to anyone in our Suffolk village from @bt_uk. The tree was removed today but no one came to fix the line so another day in the dark. Shame on you.

  • JanetAGill
    Jan Gill (@JanetAGill) reported

    @bt_uk what has happened to your # customer service - absolute joke !

  • DrP_Manc
    Dr Pauline Nelson (@DrP_Manc) reported

    @bt_uk @bt_uk. I have phoned the number. I’ve got it on speed dial. You constantly lie saying you will fix the line but you do nothing. You really are appallingly bad. No care for elderly customers without broadband. Formal complaint coming. Not that you give a darn. Appalling.

    @herbie963 @bt_uk They make it as awkward as possible to put a justified complaint in and then give you the runaround in the hope that you give up. Wrong on my count !!!
