  • dizzy_ti ✨✨Ti Glover✨✨ (@dizzy_ti) reported from Blackburn, England

    Upgraded to BT ultrafast fibre on Wednesday and have had super slow speeds ever since! Spent 30mins trying to get through yesterday and have been in a queue for 18mins so far now 🤬🤬 #BT #epicfail @bt_uk

  • jakemac97 Jake McLaughlin (@jakemac97) reported from Wigan, England

    Shows how shit @SkySports has gone when they don’t show one of the biggest derby games in rugby league on television. #WiganvsSaints no wonder @btsport is taking over

  • SamMcCartney Sam McCartney (@SamMcCartney) reported from Burnley, England

    Person calling from 01272 990574 purporting to be from @bt_uk about our internet security and someone was misusing it. They’d have to be good as we don’t have BT B/Band at this location. 😂😂 He wanted to show me if I signed onto s/thing. Phone put down once I called him out. 🤣

  • Eaveysmom EaveysMom (@Eaveysmom) reported from Urmston, England

    @bt_uk Mark, your chat advisor was lovley! I'm thinking we will stay with BT. I just need to sort out a second box and review our current package as there are some bits we just don't need. I was really impressed by the customer service shown to me today!

    @bt_uk Its still saying temporary problem and other errors!

  • dejkirkby 'Motivated And Confident' Mags (@dejkirkby) reported from Burnley, England

    @bt_uk @MikeAubury Read this as: Whenever we feel we can fleece customers by holding big events to random behind a 2nd paywall, we will. Forget that customer already pay a premium to receive BT Sports, because we couldn't give a shit.

  • jakemac97 Jake McLaughlin (@jakemac97) reported from Wigan, England

    @jackrimmi @SkySports @btsport Still shit should be on television. Better than Leeds and hull

  • benjietvf1 Brian Benjamin (@benjietvf1) reported from Salford, England

  • bobblebardsley Bobble Bardsley (@bobblebardsley) reported from Leigh, England

    @dimspace @Mach2Infinity @bt_uk I must be wrong then! Must be something on their end. Hopefully will be fixed by morning, I could do without a lengthy outage.

  • AnthonyHeys Anthony (@AnthonyHeys) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @NorAmClarets Horrendous from @btsport. “This will be another long ball from Burnley”. Hang ******** on one minute, that’s all arsenal have done. Biased wankers 👀

BT (British Telecom) Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • EmArSee1 Michael Cawdry (@EmArSee1) reported

    @bt_uk I've tested also on wired connection. Quite clearly shows the issue as speeds from your network reaching my hub is the issue. Not connection speeds to my devices

  • TypicalJackie_ Jackie Balchin (@TypicalJackie_) reported

    @bt_uk @bt_uk I sent my old kit back and can see it was delivered to you on the 5th but had a text from you on Friday saying you don' t have it. Can you help?

  • Tobermoree Toby White (@Tobermoree) reported

    Take aways from this #AUSvENG test. @btsport forces England fans to listen to constant aussie commentary, which is annoying. @root66 focusing on bowler length when England batting is the real issue. @englandcricket need to work on fielding and finding someone who can open.

  • HighTsimikas Zoraiz (@HighTsimikas) reported

    Decided to cancel @SkySports and @btsport after today. Firstly I’m sick of Edouard Mendy constantly being called Benjamin Mendy and secondly I’m done with the @premierleague refereeing, earning television rights money from my monthly subscription in return for that. **** off.

  • AIFaulkner930 Andrea Faulkner (@AIFaulkner930) reported

    @bt_uk how is it acceptable leaving old people without phonelines, welfare team checked line remotely and said it’s all good, we went through this Thursday and the call out yesterday never happened and now they can’t send someone til Tuesday… not happy!

  • 1967Mjoz mjoz (@1967Mjoz) reported

    @bt_uk why can’t by. Deliver a good signal very poor service as an engineer who I took a day off for never even turned up disappointed isn’t a strong enough word

  • joe_brandon841 Joe Brandon 84 (@joe_brandon841) reported

    @bt_uk Indeed it is. @SkyUK told me that the reason I was having problems downloading my favourite crime drama ( the Sopranos) was due to compatibility problems with BT. I don't have problems with @primevideouk.

  • wilddelorean mike wild (@wilddelorean) reported

    Phone line down so no internet, reported 27th Nov, now 19th Dec still not fixed despite 2 engineers coming out, cable has come down on the road not rocket science, no updates since 3rd Dec, were in Leeds not a remote island, this is beyond a joke @BTGroup @bt_uk @btcomplaints

  • LDdex LDdex (@LDdex) reported

    @bt_uk no faults listed, but when I do check on my broadband it says there may be a fault and it runs tests and turns of my hub but when it powers up, I have to start the problem solving from the start.

  • davetheblue690 Davetheblue69.5 (@davetheblue690) reported

    @IanDarke You really despise City don’t you fella, can’t wait to cancel @btsport later…
