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

    Nearly 2 weeks since I subscribed to @btsport through @EE and still I can't access it. The gentlemen who has been dealing with it has been fantastic, but it this what you call service? Reckon I'd have heard from you yesterday if my bill hadn't been paid today

  • 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.

    Michelle Boudin (@MichelleBoudin_) reported from Bury, England

    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.

  • ChelleAbraham
    Michelle Abraham (@ChelleAbraham) reported from Wigan, England

    @bt_uk Hi , we have moved over to you from sky & our broadband will be connected on 28th March. I've created a BT login but I can't access my email as I want my email address to be a BT one. I've tried several times but no luck.

  • emstoth
    EMMA STOTHARD (@emstoth) reported from Salford, England

    @bt_uk I was told when I organised it I would have signal here...I’m only a few miles out of Manchester City centre. Should both mini hubs work regardless, it isn’t just one of the other?

  • kevbmcfc
    Kevin Ball (@kevbmcfc) reported from Stockport, England

    Brilliant game spoiled by some absolutely terrible commentary on @btsportfootball @btsport. #BayernPSG

  • PravPatel_

    @bt_uk are your internet services down in Manchester?

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

    @bt_uk Another month, another charge for a call that was never made. No phone plugged in but apparently I ring the talking clock at least once a month. I have sent a message with details 😡

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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?

    @bt_uk This is not acceptable. You told me to phone you regarding my issue. I tried last night and again this morning on 5 or 6 occasions. I can’t spend the whole day trying to get through. Put more people on the line.

    @BTCare Help. I’ve spent ages trying to cancel a bolt on for mobile package. It’s an absolute nightmare. It’s like impossible to cancel.

    We’re really sorry to all our customers affected by the ongoing internet outage. Our service has been disrupted and, despite relying on BT Business for support, we’ve been left without the help we urgently need. We know this has caused frustration and inconvenience @bt_uk

    bryony (@bryonycdc) reported

    @bt_uk hi, an engineer was meant to visit today as my internet has barely been working since it was installed about a week ago and no one has turned up? i’m a new customer and beyond unimpressed, regretting switching to your broadband

    @btbusinesscare glad to know your billing team couldn’t wait to go home instead of resolving our issue which is part of an on-going complaint, I have had to shut the business for the night and cancel a birthday party whilst they went home

    AP Rhondda (@ae_parry) reported

    @btbusinesscare @ofcom You can't even complain because they will always say that BT have not had enough chance to fix things. 2 years of bills messed up and now I have moved on to a better company I am struggling to even do that.

    @btbusinesscare hi just to let you know I've been hanging on trying to get help with new handsets that were meant to be activated 23/12. We are a small tailoring business and our customers are telling us verbally our number isn't working. I've been waiting for more than 35 mins.
