    @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.

  • 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

    @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!

  • 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

    @mcfcman66 @btsportfootball @btsport @ManCity Cretins....never fail do they trying to keep em relevant....

  • andiacc andrea Eddleston (@andiacc) reported from Accrington, England

    That's what pissess me off. We pay for this in our extortionate prices. Read my tweet below @Richard Collins @bt_uk @Offcom . Terrible. @bt_uk @BTCare aren't interested. Useless. Apparently @bt don't use @yahoomail anymore. nobody knows / cares.All my medical stuff done thru BT😡

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

    @bt_uk Its still saying temporary problem and other errors!

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • arlo7966 Arlo (@arlo7966) reported

    @bt_uk is the internet connection in Cumbernauld down. I’ve not had connection for last 20 mins?

  • ElectricCelt ElectricCELT⚡☘🥊🥋 (@ElectricCelt) reported

    @bt_uk is bt mobile down in Glasgow?

  • SR71BETA BETA TYSON / 🇬🇧 (@SR71BETA) reported

    @bt_uk I dunno why but we have no problems with Black British here they are treated equals and we allow them to have the same resources as us. This Nonsense only happened in America because Black Americans were struggling to follow rules and weren't accepted as equals.

  • AnnaGra65143872 Anne Graham (@AnnaGra65143872) reported

    @jmtd_DWG @bt_uk Shocking sadly not surprising now after a week of trying to engage with BT. Lots of similar horror stories on social media. My property and street left in disrepair. If postie is injured at least the union will take them on. I am forced down legal route too for want of response.

  • CricketCracker Julia brennan (@CricketCracker) reported

    @bt_uk Why have I had an email asking to return kit? I've not changed my service?

  • Andy_Davy Andrew Davy (@Andy_Davy) reported

    @bt_uk Have no service from BT and after trying the automated online checks called customer services to speak to a human. A recorded message states that their systems are down and suggest calling back tomorrow. I work from home!!! Really poor service BT...

  • CraigFerriman Craig Ferriman (@CraigFerriman) reported

    1/2 I cease to be astonished with @bt_uk for their gross ineptitude, rank discourtesy and poor communication towards a prospective customer. Moved into new home in mid-August and still have no Internet. When lodging a complaint it gets closed by them before even speaking to me…

  • ruthdfreedman Ruth Freedman (@ruthdfreedman) reported

    @bt_uk @BTCare the problem with my phone line persists. You have fobbed me off for years and years, you will not give me a contact to use until it is solved. you close the case repeatedly. Time to change provider I think

  • js_wood Jason S Wood (@js_wood) reported

    @bt_uk impossible to get through to customer services today, tried at least 4 times, being on hold for 30 mins plus for the line to go dead.. I’ve got better things to do than waste time calling BT.
