    Lee Howarth (@leehow2) reported from Urmston, England

    Your systems work correctly? Once is bad luck but twice is just plain rubbish. There's no online chat available either to sort the issue out. I guess she'll have to spend 2 hours on the phone to you tomorrow trying to get a refund. It's just rubbish! @btsport @BTSportBoxing

  • WannabePaul
    Paul Hill (@WannabePaul) reported from Rochdale, England

    @btsport absolute ******* **** show!!! I want the fight, can’t press a button to get the fight, have to go through a process I don’t want to go through! Money grabbing bastards!

  • storm_imaging
    Craig Cooke (@storm_imaging) reported from Adlington, England

    @bt_uk Well, it looks like I’m getting a new account set up. No idea why as I have correspondence to the new address about my move. As long as I don’t lose service.

  • simon_hand
    Simon Hand (@simon_hand) reported from Sale, England

    @brownhill76 @btsport He wasn’t doing to bad before the goal as it seemed he was just enjoying a very open game, but that changed after Walton claimed the goal should have been ruled out

  • leehow2
    Lee Howarth (@leehow2) reported from Urmston, England

    @BTCare your app is garbage! I've already tried once today to buy a monthly pass without success and it took me two hours on the phone to get a refund. My Mrs has just tried to buy it and the same thing has happened to her - doesn't recognise BT ID or Password. Why can't you make

  • 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.

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

    Random question but do any of my followers have an android TV, with the @btsport app installed? If so have you had any problems opening it?

  • ehsanashraf
    Ehsan Ashraf 🇵🇸 (@ehsanashraf) reported from Urmston, England

    Just an update for you @MarcAllera , I've had a phone call from the @bt_uk social media team because they thought I was talking about a BT mobile issue even though all my tweets show its an issue with @EE - come on team, this is simple stuff....

  • storm_imaging
    Craig Cooke (@storm_imaging) reported from Adlington, England

    @bt_uk hi. I moved home and had my services transferred. No problem. Today I have received an email saying I will be charged for ending the contract early and received another email about returning kit?

  • Nw38Wilson
    nick Wilson (@Nw38Wilson) reported from Rochdale, England

    @btsport hi your live chat the other day changed payment date for my bill till September 8th to give me more time to pay it an she said my channels would come back on within 24 to 48 hours but they not back on yet can you help me?

  • StephenConlon7
    Manc United (@StephenConlon7) reported from Manchester, England

    @MadRedNeil @Akabash01 @btsport Neil. WTF is he missing. They have constantly abuse FIFA fair play but as you can see he’s not arsed as his fight is against United. No matter what.

  • couser85
    Daniel Couser (@couser85) reported from Bury, England

    @bt_uk can’t get on a live chat! We can’t get so Wi-fi signal to the back bedrooms of the house. We’ve had the smart hub for the last 4 years is there an upgrade?

    So annoying when your given a date for broadband installation sat in all morning and no one has been in touch to explain it’s been delayed for 3 weeks and then it will be reviewed still in confirmed date so now have no network as it has cancelled my current network 😡 @bt_uk

  • brazenchart
    World of Wonder (@brazenchart) reported

    @bt_uk Ridiculous , 0330 123 4150 rings and then just cuts off. Switching due to being overcharged and slow network but cannot get hold of anyone.

  • TheEmperorSon
    The Emperor Son (@TheEmperorSon) reported

    Hay @EE and @bt_uk, next time you have a broadband outage can you text me that there's a problem in the area to my mobile phone about the issue? I thought there was a problem with my hub, so performed a reset and unknowingly lost all my contacts. I assumed that the numbers where stored in the handset. My fault for not reading the instructions - but because I didn't know about the broadband outage, I thought the fault was the equipment. Have now added my contacts back to the phone, which are stored in the hub.

  • kirkbysheila28

    @bt_uk @Boston_Rabbit What a way to treat a 92yr old @bt_uk you should be ashamed

  • CarolLo58903853
    Carol Lord (@CarolLo58903853) reported

    @bt_uk is there a broadband issue in some areas this pm? The call delay suggests yes. I can't stand at the top of the garden for 90mins to wait for a call back from you and 'WiFi calling' indoors obviously isn't working. Very frustrating 😕

  • Forex_trader_4u
    Macro Bielsa (@Forex_trader_4u) reported

    @bt_uk Exactly.. I have to call to cancel. Should be 2 clicks max once logged in. Just trying to make it difficult.

  • neil_huntingdon
    @neil_huntingdon #LoveNHS #FBPE #BWithTheT (@neil_huntingdon) reported

    @bt_uk @AndreaS51917891 @EE My BT broadband has been broken for a week. BT say they don't even know if they CAN fix it, let alone when. Many broken promises to keep me informed. Utterly useless. Please fix it, or release me from my contract.

  • aimdestroyer
    Gavin Curran (@aimdestroyer) reported

    @bt_uk please upgrade your mobile app. It is shocking. Can’t link to see accounts and payment set ups just buffer - awful

  • phillyonskem
    The Real Philip Lyon (@phillyonskem) reported

    Every time I have to contact @bt_uk about our business phones, it says webchat is the best option. And every time, without fail, after a least a half hour webchat they tell me I'll need to ring such and such a number. Absolute joke of a company to deal with.

  • RSh234
    Robin Shaw (@RSh234) reported

    @phillyonskem @bt_uk Totally agree. Literally hours on calls to ‘Guides’, only a few of which actually help, processes which ignore issues and no recourse without escalating to the Ombudsman!

  • EddieCrouch
    Eddie Crouch (@EddieCrouch) reported

    After 30 years with @bt_uk I have switched to @SkyUK for my broadband phone and TV package . A £40 per month rise was the reason and an almost identical service for 50% less . Wonder how much I have lost by not switching sooner ?
