    @bt_uk Please can you sort out the issues with the WiFi and YouView box. I’ve not been able to use my TV since Tuesday. I’ve rebooted the box 4 times and keep getting error code YVM302. The WiFi isn’t great either.

  • 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.

  • mekonmcfc MikeB (@mekonmcfc) reported from Urmston, England

    Is everyone’s @bt_uk WiFi as bad as mine, so slow@

  • DidymusBrush 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.

  • DidymusBrush Paul Holmes (@DidymusBrush) reported from Manchester, England

    @Darth_Vivid @virginmedia @bt_uk @TalkTalk @SkyUK It would be nice to get 100mb once. Never even had half of what we pay for. Wonder what Ofcom would make of that...

  • Ashtoncrouch Peter Hamilton (@Ashtoncrouch) reported from Bryn, England

    @bt_uk Internet slow in Wigan WN4 area

  • Ric_Bond Richard Bond (@Ric_Bond) reported from Manchester, England

    Clearly the continuing high winds up here is adding to the risk, and if the cable snaps I imagine it creates a very real safety issue for pedestrians - plus of course my service is being disrupted all the while @bt_uk

  • FreakDanceUK FreakDanceUK (@FreakDanceUK) reported from Blackburn, England

    @bt_uk wow amazed with the shambles of customer service and lack of help this company has provided! Charging-no joke 15x more then actually price it should be/stated by them in the phone call! Wait for it! still not resolving the issue now since January @MoneyTelegraph #ombudsman

  • MichelleBoudin_ Michelle Boudin (@MichelleBoudin_) reported from Bury, England

  • buxton081 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 james buxton🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@buxton081) reported from Burnley, England

    @bt_uk No not yet, still can’t order online and still can’t do it when I ring! Got some team working on the problem!

  • MrPostlethwaite John Postlethwaite 🇬🇧 (@MrPostlethwaite) reported from Salford, England

  • MatthewHoneyma9 Matty O'Toole🇺🇦 (@MatthewHoneyma9) reported

    @btsport @Azzy666 Sorry for barging into your tweet Stephen. But this seems to be a problem at your end @btsport It's been the same for me and many other customers (look at the comments) and it's been like this for weeks😕

  • Azzy666 Stephen roberts (@Azzy666) reported

    @MatthewHoneyma9 @btsport No problem at all mate. 👍👍

  • krimasre Christina Hod (@krimasre) reported

    @HughesDirect @bt_uk Would be perfect to replace my broken phone

  • frdragonspouse Jill Hayward (@frdragonspouse) reported

    @Crashed7 @bt_uk When it's working properly it's fine - although we've never approached the 150Mbps we're supposed to get - but then we're not high usage so, 70-80 mbps usually fine for what we want. 30-40 is pathetic, though. Far more drop-outs than we got with EE as well.

  • Davey_B8019 Dave B (@Davey_B8019) reported

    @btsport @SkySports Can we please have a red button option next season to listen to games without the commentary? I’m sick of having to watch the games on mute cause of some of the annoying crap being spouted.

  • CharlieKChats Charlie (@CharlieKChats) reported

    @bt_uk You have the order reference. You’ve looked up my account. You have this info. Stop being obstructive and start providing some customer service, Dee.

  • only1mrsid mr sid (@only1mrsid) reported

    Nice 1 @bt_uk because of your lack of customer service you are now going to lose my custom, I have tried for 3 days to contact someone regarding upgrading, but without success. I know only me leaving won't affect you, but reading your reviews I don't think I will be the only one

  • TomAndThat Tom Davies (@TomAndThat) reported

    @btsport hey, I just changed devices from my laptop to the TV, and now I can't start the stream because of the too many devices warning. Any idea what I can do to fix?

  • didopich Dido* (@didopich) reported

    @btsport commentators failing to see the offside in that Watford attack just before our goal....all to make out it was against the run of play....Macca talking so much **** it's unbelievable

  • nicholasodwyer Nick O'Dwyer (@nicholasodwyer) reported

    Please @btsport please stop him. He’s a bona fide 24 carat idiot. #MUTEMACCA
