    @bt_uk Internet slow in Wigan WN4 area

  • Ric_Bond Richard Bond (@Ric_Bond) reported from Manchester, England

    Clearly the continuing high winds up here is adding to the risk, and if the cable snaps I imagine it creates a very real safety issue for pedestrians - plus of course my service is being disrupted all the while @bt_uk

  • JoshBancroftUK Josh Bancroft 🎙📻 (@JoshBancroftUK) reported from Ramsbottom, England

    I've asked both @bt_uk and @EE to solve some problems over the last couple of weeks. Both have failed, both seem to have forgotten after promising to get back to me. With so much competition this really shouldn't happen anymore.

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

    @Darth_Vivid @virginmedia @bt_uk @TalkTalk @SkyUK It still doesn't excuse the slowness, the constant drop outs, and the near impossible chance of getting through to customer service.

  • gkse16 Graham Henderson-King (@gkse16) reported from Salford, England

    @wearysole4 @virginmedia @bt_uk I thought it was just us but totally agree the network speed is shite round here.

  • MrPostlethwaite John Postlethwaite 🇬🇧 (@MrPostlethwaite) reported from Salford, England

  • chenieschap Gordon Ince (@chenieschap) reported

    @bt_uk Absolutely no point, you rarely respond, when we do get through you do nothing. You still owe us money, you still aren't delivering us a service, you are a disgrace and in the real world you be bankrupt running a business like you do #Banditsnormallywearmasks

  • FLC1889 Simon Jenkins (@FLC1889) reported

    Why are @btsport apologising for bad language? It's 1.15am! If there's any kids still up watching this England team, then they've got bigger issues to worry about than the odd naughty word!

  • PHOENIXS80 Mike Neate (@PHOENIXS80) reported

    @bt_uk It wasn’t sales he said he was hear due to complaints about slow speeds in the area, he showed ‘BT’ ID but from a distance to my wife , I have a photo of him on my ring door bell

  • fe010c Felix Chan (@fe010c) reported

    @bt_uk my company’s internet is down since yesterday and area status showing there is no fix date on repairing, do you know what is happening at Bayswater W2? Thanks

  • chenieschap Gordon Ince (@chenieschap) reported

    @bt_uk The process above has been followed, you just don't deal with it or ever fix it. You hide behind messaging and anonymous call centres, you have cost us considerably due to your complete inefficiency and 'couldn't care less' attitude, you should not have a licence from @Ofcom

  • ablfc1892 AkBrennan (@ablfc1892) reported

    Btsport coverage of The Ashes is really poor.

  • Timbabaland1888 Tim Land (@Timbabaland1888) reported

    @Goodall1892 @katecross16 I thought Fox sport was bad but BTSport have the nerve to charge customers good money for this trash. I can’t believe I’m say this but I actually went onto my IPTV and flicked on the FoxSport version

  • mavericktsg Jay Styles (@mavericktsg) reported

    @bt_uk I've reset and rebuilt the network countless times. It seems to be OK for a period then all go to pot. To be honest us getting a bit tiresome

  • The_21st_Doctor Sam (@The_21st_Doctor) reported

    Why are @btsport apologising for bad language? It's 1:15am. #CricketTwitter #ASHES #AshesTest

  • mavericktsg Jay Styles (@mavericktsg) reported

    @bt_uk Generally OK, the odd blip here and there but the kids stream a lot and not a huge amount of problems. The TV box itself does seem to be awfully slow, whether that's a contributory factor?
