  • 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.

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

    @Darth_Vivid @virginmedia @bt_uk @TalkTalk @SkyUK It would be nice to get 100mb once. Never even had half of what we pay for. Wonder what Ofcom would make of that...

  • SopranoCrew Marko (@SopranoCrew) reported from Atherton, England

  • FreakDanceUK FreakDanceUK (@FreakDanceUK) reported from Blackburn, England

    @bt_uk wow amazed with the shambles of customer service and lack of help this company has provided! Charging-no joke 15x more then actually price it should be/stated by them in the phone call! Wait for it! still not resolving the issue now since January @MoneyTelegraph #ombudsman

  • drbexl Dr Bex Lewis #StayHomeSaveLives (@drbexl) reported from Stockport, England

    @RachelRenshaw3 @bt_uk It is .. wonder if that’s enough - it’s been quite bad this week. Running off my phone 4G at present ...

  • 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

  • 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.

    Ouch! @bt_uk bill gone up by 25% with their “inflation linked” increase. Total rip off. Contract ends in November and then I am gone - anywhere else and I’ll never ever go back. Customer loyalty killing decision by them.

    @btsport @btsportfootball Chelsea’s problems is like a jumbo jet First - They need to release their aged players. Second - Buy a top striker Third - They need a director of football who understands their managers vision & goals Fourth- when signing players sign to replace.
