  • darrendevally Darren de Vally 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ (@darrendevally) reported from Manchester, England

    @bt_uk your app is telling me my last bill was not paid on time? But it’s paid by direct debit and went through no problem.

  • donutvan Donovan Whyte 🇵🇸 (@donutvan) reported from Walkden, England

    @bt_uk after a terrible night watching Salford rugby, I come home and think, I will out the music channel on..... Not one of them work! Do I have them in your rubbish channel selections where you suck Sky off?

  • no1AlFielding AlFi (@no1AlFielding) reported from Haslingden, England

    I’ve been growing into @btsport #ashes coverage thus far. Just improved ten fold now the satellite has gone down 👊

  • darrendevally Darren de Vally 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ (@darrendevally) reported from Manchester, England

  • Lbartram Lee Bartram (@Lbartram) reported from Rochdale, England

    @davidakime @btsportmotogp @btsport Does that have all the sessions on Live and then on demand and is there a way to get it on your TV? Can you airplay it via an AppleTV for example and is it 4K or HD? Ha ha sorry for all the questions, genuinely interested as I have never had it 👍 #MotoGP

  • 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.

  • willisclarkie Will (@willisclarkie) reported from Manchester, England

    pretty good of Root, Malan and Pope to spare @btsport’s blushes by making 90% of the audience turn off the telly, leaving the technical issues to go unnoticed

  • Nickbr1001 Nick Broughall (@Nickbr1001) reported from Sale, England

    If @bt_uk suggest you switch to @EE to save you money, say no. Painful process from day 1. Direct debit initially set up wrong, 8 phone numbers with random charges on the bill. Awful experience.

  • AndyWhittle2 Andy W (@AndyWhittle2) reported from Aspull, England

    @btsport your commentators on the Arsenal v City game today are an absolute disgrace. Never heard as much bias against City in my life and they also have **** accents so please get rid.

  • forgedbyfiree Forged By Fire (@forgedbyfiree) reported from Manchester, England

  • 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.

  • KerryM811 K e r r i (@KerryM811) reported from Horwich, England

    @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?

  • tonyknowles36 Tony Knowles (@tonyknowles36) reported from Blackburn, England

    @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!

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

    @bt_uk @commuter_girl Why do we have to pay for these? I don't understand why you're allowed to sell inferior service for higher prices.

  • Losecontr0lx Jane Holt X (@Losecontr0lx) reported from Garswood, England

    @bt_uk my boyfriends got a situation with his newly installed wifi with you guys… can you please help? @Marty_Young17 x

  • leehow2 Lee Howarth (@leehow2) reported from Bolton, England

    @bt_uk you are the worst company I've ever had the displeasure to deal with in my almost 45 years on planet earth. What a ****** awful company!

  • Juevans70A Julie Evans (@Juevans70A) reported from Sale, England

    So annoying when your given a date for broadband installation sat in all morning and no one has been in touch to explain it’s been delayed for 3 weeks and then it will be reviewed still in confirmed date so now have no network as it has cancelled my current network 😡 @bt_uk

  • wheatabeat Grim Up North (@wheatabeat) reported from Rochdale, England

    That massive Urn graphic they have to interchange with replays is tragically bad. Like some horrid clip art thing. It’s irritating me miles more than England’s tribulations. #ashes #AusvsEng @btsport

  • MarkDev20 MarkDev (@MarkDev20) reported

    @bt_uk On Monday we used the chat line to try and sort the renewal of our bt landline and bt sports. It’s been a while mess and have been blatantly mislead online by your operative Ujjwal Kumar. We are king term customers and feel totally let down. #bt

  • ScaryHighlander John G. Burns (@ScaryHighlander) reported

    @bt_uk Since installing fibre broadband on 6th October my landline phone service has been dead. Numerous complaints raised and fixes tried. I need someone senior to take ownership of the problem, how do we fix this? My business partner had the same issue, took six weeks to fix.

  • Pworboyes1995 Paddy Worboyes (@Pworboyes1995) reported

    @bt_uk @airbus319uk Mine is down. Me6 area. Don’t have a landline number to check but been down for last half hour 👍🏻

  • someBroka i.am.kaspar (@someBroka) reported

    @bt_uk BT Net Business service down in London and no answer on support lines for 30 min hold. Any answers or alternative lines that are open?

  • Alazkas_ Dan (@Alazkas_) reported

    @dannyfarrar91 @bt_uk Did you contact the number that BT commented? If not, what was your solution please?

  • IanStephensSim Ian Stephens (@IanStephensSim) reported

    @JayBoyd78603955 @airbus319uk @bt_uk Out BTNet line was also down for~50 mins. Connectivity resumed 10 mins ago. Still waiting on hold for telephone support as to discover the cause.

  • JayBoyd78603955 Jay Boyd (@JayBoyd78603955) reported

    @airbus319uk @bt_uk We are down ... BT not answering their phones

  • MicknJennynToby Toby (@MicknJennynToby) reported

    @bt_uk Hi Jules, many thanks. It would help if BT made it clearer that they would be reused on their texts and emails. Please take care.

  • sharonleamoore Sharon Moore (@sharonleamoore) reported

    @bt_uk Really? You have left my elderly vulnerable relatives without their essential landline for nearly a week! They have no way of communicating with anyone. They have been left at risk, with no access to any support or emergency services in the middle of winter. #BT_uk

  • julievygot Jules Escha (@julievygot) reported

    @bt_uk Why is BT Customer service so unaware of the need for an engineer to change from Virgin Media to BT broadband connection? There must be others moving from Virgin. Spoke to 3 BT advisers & none of them knew-I had to persist. Tempted to stay with Virgin to avoid the hassle
