    @btsport @WWEUK Woah! This is huge. Hopefully not in a bad way

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

    @OpenreachHelp @btbusinesscare Really really unhappy customer here. Placed my order for superfast fibre on 31-7-19 and system keeps rejecting my order. Date for install keeps getting put back and getting through to someone on phone is impossible. Order Ref: BT6V95ML.

  • franco_blanco1 Francis Idehen (@franco_blanco1) reported from Manchester, England

    @bt_uk Is there a problem with your Internet network in the central Manchester area tonight. Lots of buffering and cutting out/having to reset the router. Not impressed

  • ianduff52 little bigman🇵🇸🌹YNWA (@ianduff52) reported from Leyland, England

    @bt_uk Struggling to login..

  • EightEngines Eight Engines (@EightEngines) reported from Manchester, England

    @bt_uk @btbusinesscare @btbusinesscare please can you get in touch. It’s terrible service this.

  • hart90 Jonathan Hart (@hart90) reported from Manchester, England

    @jonsmile @bt_uk I also fly through here every other week. It works fine outside but the building acts like a kind of huge faraday cafe and really hinders the connection inside. The WiFi is bad too

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

    @btbusinesscare Your help lines open at 08.00am, so I call at 08.01am and at 08.41am I give up! Your customer service is simply appalling ! #CustomerService #CustomerExperience #shocking #noreply #needtodobetter

  • 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. 🤣

  • JalilvandMahdi Mahdi Jalilvand (@JalilvandMahdi) reported from Salford, England

    @btsport I have bt business with #btsport included but every time I want to login in ask me to activate my account and when I put my account number to activate its says account number is wrong. Please help me.

  • 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 👀

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

    @virginmedia @btsport as a VM customer with the BT Sport add-on, can you explain to me the idea behind having the only reason I have the BT Sport add-on, UFC, having major events locked behind a secondary paywall and then still increasing the package cost. Not only double

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

    @fowl_original @btsport @Omega_Luke @alpha_reel @hairywrestling @TEGamerUK @smacktalk_uk @WatchesJess @TheMattAttackUK @knankles I think Sky were still smarting from the loss of PPV sales when the Network was released in the UK just weeks into a 5 year deal.

  • 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

  • LongsightBlue 🦈 (@LongsightBlue) reported from Manchester, England

    @btsportscore @btsportfootball @btsport @themichaelowen @PaulInce @chris_sutton73 @jjenas8 @RobbieSavage8 @julesbreach @markpougatch The worst lineup I have ever seen

  • JG_JessGreen Jess Green (@JG_JessGreen) reported from Bury, England

    @btsportmotogp @btsport Racing incident but ended the race for these riders and ruined it for the fans.

  • 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.

  • 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

    @btbusinesscare @btbusinesscare Really really unhappy customer here. Placed my order for superfast fibre on 31-7-19 and system keeps rejecting my order. Date for install keeps getting put back and getting through to someone on phone is impossible. Order Ref: BT6V95ML.

  • KurtMCR Kurt (@KurtMCR) reported from Salford, England

    @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.

  • K4thy72 K4thy72 (@K4thy72) reported

    @bt_uk Thank Goodness for Tim in Connections at Accrington for hopefully finally sorting our issue. The only BT person out of 5 spoken with this week who has been helpful and stayed with us on the phone to sort it. The rest need retraining in Customer Service.

  • trevhewsongy Trev Hewson ⚫️⚪️❤️⚪️⚫️🌶🐟🏴‍☠️ (@trevhewsongy) reported

    @leeblease @virginmedia @bt_uk are as bad. Promise you call backs that never happen not arsed to deal with complaints. Just piss poor must be a broadband provider thing.

  • RMasding Richard Masding (@RMasding) reported

    @bt_uk I get over 100mb on cat 6 cable to my tv and your btsport app always buffers and no other app does, nowt to do with wifi just something dubious about your app not working well with other BB suppliers.

  • sallybromley sallybromley (@sallybromley) reported

    @bt_uk @bt_uk yes you answer calls well done 👏👏👏👏but you don’t actually sort out customers issues and leave them waiting with no resolution other than to wait, even though I have already waited, phones down many times, but again the same response computer says NO

  • Dancer_J0 Jo Perry (@Dancer_J0) reported

    @bt_uk So BT you well & truly messed up. So you can cancel the wrong land line immediately leaving and elderly lady alone without her lifeline but it's going to take a few days "you think" to get it up and running again, leaving her vulnerable!! FFS BT!! 😡🤬

  • _JoeMac86 Joe Mac (@_JoeMac86) reported

    @bt_uk It’s more than one household, my mums house and my house. Both in the same village. It’s so hit and miss it’s unbelievable! Really very poor. Always been this way

  • HelenMaryPike #TeamNicola #TeamMeghan (@HelenMaryPike) reported

    I do pay for this non-service @BTCare

  • lopo1207 Laura Porter 🖤🌙 (@lopo1207) reported

    @bt_uk how do I cancel my now TV movie pass? I can’t do it through the mybt app or website, I can only manage bt sports.

  • sallybromley sallybromley (@sallybromley) reported

    @bt_uk I have had the worst service I have ever received and I’m not even connected yet! Engineers not turning up, been lied to, order cancelled, order reinstated but more a month, another 2 weeks wait, with no broadband. @bt_uk

  • Dancer_J0 Jo Perry (@Dancer_J0) reported

    @bt_uk Yet you can easily leave an elderly lady without her lifeline by cancelling the wrong number!! How does it take seconds to cancel and a few days, maybe, you think, to get things back to the way they should be!! Not good enough!! 😡🤬
