    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

    @bt_uk is the service down today? My connection keeps dropping. It’s done so 8 times and it was doing it yesterday as well as Sunday.

    @btsport @BTSportBoxing your service has been absolutely awful this morning. I've been passed round to 6 different departments. I bought a monthly pass my account won't work and no one can help me get it activated. I'm now ringing another number to speak to person 7 to get my

    @bt_uk The text service just offers to book an enginer really all the other steps I've done randomly goes off at 1 in the morning surely ain't a fault on the line

    Craig Dyer (@cdyer291) reported from Bury, England

    When I signed up for a new broadband service with BT, it said I would receive a £110 reward card. Never heard anything since and when I go to claim on my account, it’s not listed, any ideas @BTCare ?

    @bt_uk who do we contact to sort out the phone line at my Grandma's house, a building site next to hers has brought the wire down. She has been off since last Wednesday, had 2 engineers here and still hasn't been reconnected!! Also told to cancel her holiday

  • Stirling061
    Ian Stirling (@Stirling061) reported from Salford, England

    @skysports and @btsport must end their collusion with Premier League clubs to rip off fans by charging £15 to view games during a pandemic. This is a very poor way to treat fans and their subscribers who already pay them large amounts. Play fair with fans.

    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.

  • govinddhankhar
    G kumar (@govinddhankhar) reported from Manchester, England

    @bt_uk Dear BT , it’s been 7 days … no response of your request to call me ASAP …???? Can you listen the call as one of your advisor first refused me to open complaint and tried to misguide me and another advisor open the complaint and closed without my consent …..

    @EE and @BT @btsport why can't I log in to the bt sports app when I am a EE customer and just redone my login for it but I cant log on its a joke

  • ianrohdebell
    Ian Rohde-Bell (@ianrohdebell) reported from Manchester, England

    @bt_uk Thank you. It's very frustrating that this wasn't provided at time of sale. It also doesn't seem right that there is now an additional expense required to guarantee basic service that we used to be able to rely on.

  • emstoth
    EMMA STOTHARD (@emstoth) reported from Salford, England

    @bt_uk I was told when I organised it I would have signal here...I’m only a few miles out of Manchester City centre. Should both mini hubs work regardless, it isn’t just one of the other?

  • SourEnvy

    @bt_uk Hi, I want to remove the BT Sport package that's attached to my broadband account. How do I do this? Can't see an option to cancel on your website.

    @HillyTheFish @btsport Finished reading The Card for a second time a few weeks ago, even better than the first time. Is the Driver trawling around Ligue 2 now? What a life. Anyway, you've inspired me to complete my own card. The Papa Johns is ****, ta.

  • IndomitableUK

    I’d personally like to thank @bt_uk for being the worst company I’ve ever dealt with. 2 months after my order & I’ve been messed around constantly with still no broadband or phone line. Nobody knows what’s going on. CCTV, card terminals and computer all left useless with no net.

    Sam R (@maz558) reported

    @bt_uk VERY disappointing with the service from your agents! I phoned as I wanted to take my service with me when I moved. Told I needed to take a new contract - 20% more expensive than current one. Told I would have to wait a week without broadband. Then lied to me!

  • skipjackToo
    Mark (@skipjackToo) reported

    @bt_uk is your wifi down?

  • thfcsimonm
    Simon (@thfcsimonm) reported

    @bt_uk I’ve tried that twice. It takes 20 minutes to get through and then I’m sat on the phone a further half hour while your operatives ‘ look into it ‘ and then promise the problem will be resolved. Each phone call is over an hour !!!

  • gazmorgan77
    Gareth Morgan (@gazmorgan77) reported

    @EE you filthy horrible company. I was happy with BT and when I tried to tell you I don't want to be with EE and canceled my contract, you put a £2000 bill on me? ... Awful. Good luck. @bt_uk .

  • Jacsplace3
    Jac Dee 🇺🇦 (@Jacsplace3) reported

    Dear @bt_uk We switched to @EE home broadband 2 months ago and it's been awful since. We're now paying for two bills. Customer service think we switched in September 2025 - incorrect. Today we have no broadband Goodness sake the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing

  • M300bt3
    Mo B (@M300bt3) reported

    @palmersears @bt_uk I have the same issue, on going for several weeks. When will this be resolved. Can't see bills or any products, requested a paper bill over a week ago and still haven't received that either. @bt_uk

  • MrAndyMich
    Andy Mich (@MrAndyMich) reported

    @bt_uk I’m absolutely disgusted, in this day & age of phone scams you have people phoning from unsolicited numbers about contract renewal (+44 1438 989233). All the person on the other end of the phone could say was “I promise I work on behalf of BT”. I said I can promise I’m the king of England. Do you see how stupid and dangerous this practice is? I think as a company you desperately need to review this, it’s dangerous and it’s making me think if you can be trusted at all. In this day and age it’s unforgivable to do this in this manner.

    @bt_uk You do sell customer info and I can prove it! So I can’t use the app unless I give you my mobile number is that what you’re telling me? There’s no other option?

    @bt_uk If you cannot resolve this here/via DM, issue a "Deadlock Letter" immediately so I can take this case to the Communications Ombudsman.
