    @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.

    Jordan Wilson (@jdnwils) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @btsport going on about Randolph like he's never played football before. Pretty sure he's an international and has bags of premier league experience. @themoderndaygk what do you think?

    @virginmedia @BTCare do you want another customer?

    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.

    @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 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.

    @bt_uk my internet has been down since 9.08am and you’re giving a fix time of 14.08pm so 5 hours that I’m unable to work and I also won’t be paid as I cannot do my job without wifi and as an agency worker if I can’t work I don’t get paid

    @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

  • femaledec
    Cheyvonne Bower (@femaledec) reported from Croft, England

    My anxiety is being tested by @bt_uk. Engineer failed to show yesterday and so no broadband today. 3 phone calls on hold for half an hour before being cut off. My heating, cat flap and printers are all flashing and nobody wants to help.

  • 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.

  • louise_rogerson
    Louise Rogerson (@louise_rogerson) reported from Manchester, England

    Very disappointed with @bt_uk Sold us a voice cloud option that has been nothing but trouble. 6 weeks to set up, no response on customer support, does not do what they said it would!

    Mitch (@Mitchx0161) reported from Manchester, England

    @btsport @btsportfootball are you ever going to fix your app on #PS5?

  • theboytemps
    Andrew (@theboytemps) reported from Turton, England

    @bt_uk We did get through eventually, after well over an hour. I appreciate you are busy, but for the handler not to tell us after having waited 45 minutes to speak to him that he was transferring us to another queue & putting us on hold for another half hour was really poor service.

    @jayclark0106 @EE @bt_uk Yes considering they are "the UK's biggest broadband provider" the service is not great. Already spent time on the phone to them and it still drops out regularly......

  • messalinahooper

    @bt_uk how long do I muck around with the chat bot, refresh everything etc before I give up and go to bed early. Again. Tell me if I need a booster or ket me out of this horrible 4 week nightmare

    @bt_uk @herbie963 Call them and chat online is a joke. I put a complaint in and they’ve just dismissed it out of hand and closed the case without even talking to me !

  • scruffiness
    Sir Rob the skiving. #LBFB (@scruffiness) reported

    @BTBusiness @btbusinesscare , Our broadband is out, I can’t raise a fault through your website, and I can’t find a phone number to ring. Why do you think this service is worth over a £100pcm?!

  • palacejohn
    John (@palacejohn) reported

    @bt_uk Incorrect. Tried but the same useless system. Finally successful by using option to leave BT. Straight through to a human being, strange how loss of customers is more important than giving good service.

    @IQuitMuskspace @bt_uk I dont know why @Ofcom allow them to repeatedly get away with such bad service. I hope you get sorted soon.
