    @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.

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

    Wow. @bt_uk are ‘sorry I find my bill confusing’. It’s not confusing. I’ve never had a landline plugged in but being charged for random calls to the talking clock for two months. A burglar perhaps? 😡

    @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!

  • 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.

  • 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.

    Daniel Couser (@couser85) reported from Bury, England

    @bt_uk I booked a technician through the number you gave me. I believe the issue is still ongoing

    @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!

    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...

  • storm_imaging
    Craig Cooke (@storm_imaging) reported from Adlington, England

    @bt_uk hi, I’ve had an ongoing issue with a home move since last week. Apparently it’s being dealt with - this morning I’ve just received an email asking if I want the move cancelled. I don’t. I’m in the property. I’ve been messaging about this for some days now.

    @btsport hi your live chat the other day changed payment date for my bill till September 8th to give me more time to pay it an she said my channels would come back on within 24 to 48 hours but they not back on yet can you help me?

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

    @BTCare your app is garbage! I've already tried once today to buy a monthly pass without success and it took me two hours on the phone to get a refund. My Mrs has just tried to buy it and the same thing has happened to her - doesn't recognise BT ID or Password. Why can't you make

  • Manchester_Man
    Matthew (@Manchester_Man) reported from Urmston, England

  • KirstyTonge
    Kirsty (@KirstyTonge) reported from Manchester, England

    @EE @btsport Think EE aren't what they used to be, I've sent 2 messages in the last 12hrs and not had a reply from them yet. Think their contracts are so overpriced now compared to other networks, such a shame as I have always thought they were the best network to be with. #dissapointed

  • 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

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

    Hi, I haven't been a customer since 2024 and today I am receiving texts and emails saying my trial is coming to an end. What is going on? @bt_uk

  • _mowgli73
    patrick mcgill (@_mowgli73) reported

    @bt_uk wifi is dropping to ridiculously slow levels ( 2.4mbps). Contract has just run out....coincidence? Tried to do an online check and your online service is down. Shocking

  • RMhuiris
    Roibeard Mhuiris (@RMhuiris) reported

    @JimSpenceDundee @WeAreOpenreach @bt_uk My complaint was escalated directly to their Chief Executive who delegated it accordingly. Instead of resolving the problem, they actually compounded it.

  • KHC99d
    heebee (@KHC99d) reported

    @bt_uk It’s not just that. A job that’s been promised to be done, constantly let down and nobody is sorting it out. Unbelievably poor service

  • 64outsider
    Changeling64 (@64outsider) reported

    @bt_uk Behind Brilliant things? How? When they upgrade system which results in vulnerable, elderly left at risk with a worse service than they had before! Seems #BT is profiting- w no free customer help number- hours spent trying to get someone to sort a problem that they caused.

  • Magellanic80
    Miss🐧Magellanic🐧 (@Magellanic80) reported

    Hi @bt_uk Need a bit of help please. I've been send 5 emergency backup line telephones, when I only need one. I'm regrestered as a vulnerable customer. How do I go about sending them back and stopping further deliveries. Thanks

    @bt_uk I’ve recently bought a business in Brentwood. And I have to be honest your service your communications has my other half in tears at the moment. Disgraceful doesn’t even come close to the way you’ve handled things. Please DM me for information ASAP.

    @JimSpenceDundee @WeAreOpenreach @bt_uk Fair bit of damage there Jim to soffits and fascia boards also looks like a scaffold job as well. Don't know why you have to chase up estimates?

  • alreetson
    namecantbebrank (@alreetson) reported

    @bt_uk Since Tuesday, it's been an exasperating experience trying to understand what has happened and why. Her annex is now effectively redundant and she is confused about if she is, post-takeover, a BT customer or a Plusnet customer, and keeps getting stonewalled on the phone.

  • KHC99d
    heebee (@KHC99d) reported

    @Nunney2584 @bt_uk Don’t expect BT to help
