  • uah9 Usman (@uah9) reported from Manchester, England

    @btsport #MUNBUR Rio is talking about some of those failed signings, none of those players are there now. What's going wrong now, why are ex United players (pundits) afraid to dig the current squad out now. Pogba hasn't played all year, don't blame him for the shit on the pitch

  • dopeydrafter david (@dopeydrafter) reported from Urmston, England

    @bt_uk evening, just want to say my broadband signal upstairs is really poor , not happy

  • KurtMCR Kurt ハイアム (@KurtMCR) reported from Salford, England

    The @btsport app had @WWE #RAW ready to stream early this morning. Down to 2hrs with the advert breaks taken out. Hardly seems worth recording and hitting fast forward when the app has it all done for me!

  • ged2go Gerard (@ged2go) reported from Manchester, England

    @bt_uk absolutely sick to death of #BTBroadband Every time I try streaming it runs slow and spoils my enjoyment. I am in the market for any provider who can guarantee uninterrupted viewing for the same or less cost #SkyBroadband #VirginBrodband

  • lukeroyle41 Luke Royle (@lukeroyle41) reported from Urmston, England

    Hey @btsport do us a favour and take all the NHL coverage or don’t take any! I pay for @NHL Gamecentre, @PremierSportsTV yet can’t watch @penguins tonight as I don’t have a BT subscription. You should not need 3 subscriptions to watch NHL in the UK. Shit for the fans again @NHL

  • Emma_Kearl Emma Kearl (@Emma_Kearl) reported from Wigan, England

    @Ukhilal1957 @Lionesses @moonhot97 @bt_uk Fair enough but this why the top players never win the accolades they actually deserve because fans voting their favourite.

  • cjj88_ Chris Johnson (@cjj88_) reported from Manchester, England

    For those complaining, I understand about the cost but if @btsport live up to the kind of programming and service they are advertising on paper (beyond this New Year schedule I mean).. then it is on another level to Sky. That's easy to see.. @btsportwwe

  • sarahsuttonx sarah (@sarahsuttonx) reported from Newton-le-Willows, England

    Fantastic customer service from the @bt_uk social media team, just a shame their actually customer service team was so appaling. Thanks to Ashley at BT for sorting everything out for us!

  • bailene nicola (@bailene) reported from Appley Bridge, England

    @BTCare I am@getting increasingly annoyed I made a complaint since then I have received a series of txt messages where I constantly have to re identify myself and repeat myself I made it 100% clear what needed to be investigated in initial complaint!!!

  • ged2go Gerard (@ged2go) reported from Manchester, England

    @Broxton777 @PPSpainters @bt_uk @SkyUK Yes on Highfield lower down towards the village and you are exaggerating I’m sure it was only about 70 years ago 😂👍

  • ged2go Gerard (@ged2go) reported from Manchester, England

    Can anyone suggest a reliable broadband provider other than @bt_uk which can guarantee uninterrupted service for under £50 per month in north Manchester area.

  • linda25j Linda Jones (@linda25j) reported from Urmston, England

    @mrjakehumphrey @btsport Not a bad place to be! 👋

  • AgueroBall ¹⁰ 🐝 (@AgueroBall) reported from Stockport, England

  • ShaVerZ_ ShaVerZ™ 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 ツ (@ShaVerZ_) reported

    @bt_uk There's alot of confusion in regards Wi-Fi 6, does the BT Hub 2.0 actually support WiFi 6? If not, what is the point of BT Wi-Fi discs w/Wi-Fi 6 support (Whole Home Wi-Fi) when the hub doesn't support Wi-Fi 6?

  • _EMERITUS_ eme (@_EMERITUS_) reported

    Hey @bt_uk, why is my internet downloading at 2 bits a second? That’s actually pathetic. Fix your service.

  • Rma13Fiona fiona grant (@Rma13Fiona) reported

    @bt_uk I am currently still waiting on a call back from BT which was supposed to happen at 7pm, excellent Customer Service 👀

  • nick50000 Nick (@nick50000) reported

    @bt_uk hi. We have no internet in BR5. Any update on a fix? Openreach incident is IMT111126/22

  • Penny_Photopit Pvnny Bvnnvtt (@Penny_Photopit) reported

    Hey @bt_uk the new internet in my parents house is so bad I’ve barely been able to work or watch anything streaming. The temporary stuff you sent was great now the new stuff barely works.

  • EssexDe55 MudBone (@EssexDe55) reported

    @bt_uk @teeny_beanie911 Hi that's exactly what I done ...seeing these new customer tariffs....@£3 off a £60 bill..... cancellation notification is in.

  • The__Farmster The__Farmster (@The__Farmster) reported

    @DomW964 @bt_uk Very much think I’m going to be a former customer

  • Sandgronian JohnS (@Sandgronian) reported

    @bt_uk 2 telephone calls and still no solution to my issues. Website says write a letter to complain. Surely you have an email link? Or is it designed to put me off complaining

  • fernleyj Joe Fernley (@fernleyj) reported

    @bt_uk No. Problem is either first or second network hop so I’m the exchange. Engineer today closed the fault apparently without a fix. The image I attached to the first tweet demonstrates the issue clearly

  • alancat07 Al Cat (@alancat07) reported

    @bt_uk Absolutely sick of this. An hour on chat the other week going through all my router/service, to be told it needs an engineer to come out, to then get a message to say nothings wrong. Then a week after someone from BT knocks on my door saying lots of people in area..
