  • wheatabeat Grim Up North (@wheatabeat) reported from Rochdale, England

    That massive Urn graphic they have to interchange with replays is tragically bad. Like some horrid clip art thing. It’s irritating me miles more than England’s tribulations. #ashes #AusvsEng @btsport

  • savigar_michael Michael savigar (@savigar_michael) reported from Leyland, England

    @TheRunningManZ @OpenreachHelp @bt_uk I remember when we had them down our street I had internet problem even though iam with plus net .

  • darrendevally Darren de Vally 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ (@darrendevally) reported from Manchester, England

    @bt_uk your app is telling me my last bill was not paid on time? But it’s paid by direct debit and went through no problem.

  • willisclarkie Will (@willisclarkie) reported from Manchester, England

    pretty good of Root, Malan and Pope to spare @btsport’s blushes by making 90% of the audience turn off the telly, leaving the technical issues to go unnoticed

  • Losecontr0lx Jane Holt X (@Losecontr0lx) reported from Garswood, England

    @bt_uk my boyfriends got a situation with his newly installed wifi with you guys… can you please help? @Marty_Young17 x

  • 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.

  • forgedbyfiree Forged By Fire (@forgedbyfiree) reported from Manchester, England

  • no1AlFielding AlFi (@no1AlFielding) reported from Haslingden, England

    I’ve been growing into @btsport #ashes coverage thus far. Just improved ten fold now the satellite has gone down 👊

  • darrendevally Darren de Vally 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ (@darrendevally) reported from Manchester, England

    @bt_uk any issues with Broadband in Manchester. No connection and flashing pink light on my hub.

  • tonyknowles36 Tony Knowles (@tonyknowles36) reported from Blackburn, England

    @jimwilkz @btsport Worst part of it is Glenn McGrath attempting to be nice and gracious when talking about England. Jeez, he was the biggest 'Pommie' basher of them all!

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

    @bt_uk you are the worst company I've ever had the displeasure to deal with in my almost 45 years on planet earth. What a ****** awful company!

  • TimDuckworth7 Tim Duckworth (@TimDuckworth7) reported from Bury, England

    Why have #BTSport got Owen Hargreaves on as a pundit? ******** relevance has he got? Moved to #Manchester and spent 6 years on the sick.

  • Juevans70A Julie Evans (@Juevans70A) reported from Sale, England

    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

  • donutvan Donovan Whyte 🇵🇸 (@donutvan) reported from Walkden, England

    @bt_uk after a terrible night watching Salford rugby, I come home and think, I will out the music channel on..... Not one of them work! Do I have them in your rubbish channel selections where you suck Sky off?

  • Nickbr1001 Nick Broughall (@Nickbr1001) reported from Sale, England

    If @bt_uk suggest you switch to @EE to save you money, say no. Painful process from day 1. Direct debit initially set up wrong, 8 phone numbers with random charges on the bill. Awful experience.

  • AndyWhittle2 Andy W (@AndyWhittle2) reported from Aspull, England

    @btsport your commentators on the Arsenal v City game today are an absolute disgrace. Never heard as much bias against City in my life and they also have **** accents so please get rid.

  • Lbartram Lee Bartram (@Lbartram) reported from Rochdale, England

    @davidakime @btsportmotogp @btsport Does that have all the sessions on Live and then on demand and is there a way to get it on your TV? Can you airplay it via an AppleTV for example and is it 4K or HD? Ha ha sorry for all the questions, genuinely interested as I have never had it 👍 #MotoGP

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

    @bt_uk @commuter_girl Why do we have to pay for these? I don't understand why you're allowed to sell inferior service for higher prices.

  • KerryM811 K e r r i (@KerryM811) reported from Horwich, England

    @bt_uk Hi, my internet is running painfully slow - I’ve done a speed test that’s coming back at 32, but I can’t connect on my devices, also whilst watching Netflix/Prime it’s buffering. Could you arrange a booster for me so I can give that a try before finding a new provider?

  • dohpods DAYS OF HORROR PODCAST ⸸ (@dohpods) reported from Haslingden, England

    Anyone else having issues with #btsport tonight? Watching the United game and it keeps crashing with error code vc011 😡 My internet connection is not the issue here!!

  • djbshearer david (@djbshearer) reported

    @btsport disgruntled subscriber to both BTsport and a BTBroadband customer. Just bit a new 55 LG TV and I cannot load the app because if a licensing issue you have with them. Also tried screen mirroring which is blocked. So I pay you a subscription and can’t watch in my own home!

  • Welfred_Desktop Welfred (@Welfred_Desktop) reported

  • MissScottyGirl Jade MacFarlane (@MissScottyGirl) reported

    @bt_uk do you have an internet outage in SG1 & SG2?

  • bookshop_bear Bear Bookshop (@bookshop_bear) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @bt_uk Hi Chris-I’ve just been looking on the @Ofcom website and wonder if I’m entitled to the £8.40 per day compensation to cover the days I’ve had to wait for phones to be sent/chase up the phones not working?

  • RobCockburn RobCockburn (@RobCockburn) reported

    @bt_uk No I spend mine on the phone trying to get my broadband working when it’s been down for 2 weeks

  • dee_pitcher Dee Pitcher (@dee_pitcher) reported

    @NFlisher @bt_uk Absolutely pathetic, and when/if you do manage to speak to someone, they will say there is nothing they can do, but will still charge you the same for the appalling service

  • Welfred_Desktop Welfred (@Welfred_Desktop) reported

    @bt_uk She had just reported that the telephone is still not working

  • RyanEager11 Ryan Eager (@RyanEager11) reported

  • Droop69 Andrew Boycott (@Droop69) reported

    @Rach_A_Rama @bt_uk @BBCNews Terminate contract on grounds of unable to supply paid service, they are obliged to terminate it. We had to do same after move to huntington and them moving install goalposts 5 times over 2 weeks.

  • Stephen22133593 live by the sea (@Stephen22133593) reported

    @girl_tinder @bt_uk I hear stories like yours all the time and BT and very fond of blaming the LA for not letting them work. When they haven’t even served a notice? The only issue here is if BT own the pylon? But if their apparatus is on it they are still responsible for for your lost service?.
