    @bt_uk Hi , we have moved over to you from sky & our broadband will be connected on 28th March. I've created a BT login but I can't access my email as I want my email address to be a BT one. I've tried several times but no luck.

  • Si_Bo_Coach Simon Boynton (@Si_Bo_Coach) reported from South Shore, England

    @bt_uk no broadband all day due to your problems, online it tells us the fault is resolved..it isn't! Your support messaging service has had me waiting for 20 mins.. Good job I don't have to work from home tomorrow 🙄

  • SourEnvy Elliot ⚽️🏈🎮 (@SourEnvy) reported from Leyland, England

    @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.

  • grieve51166 Helen Grieve 🇬🇧 (@grieve51166) reported from Southport, England

    @bt_uk Likely. Until a few weeks ago, you were charging us double the rate we'd agreed, just for having a landline we never used.

  • RealBobbyRooney Bobby Rooney 🇺🇦☮️ (@RealBobbyRooney) reported from Maghull, England

    No busses, no trains, hammered down with rain. Game finished 8:45, rolled in 10:15pm. Shite. @btsport you can swerve that in future, thanks.

  • mister__roy Roy Bayfield (@mister__roy) reported from Ormskirk, England

    @bt_uk They're still coming thick and fast. Is there a possibility of a human intervention to stop them? I will happily cancel the upgrade if that what it takes to end the pestering.

  • 67Snowy Paul Snowdon (@67Snowy) reported from Maghull, England

    @AdrianTempany @btsport BT Sport isn’t much better going on about the ‘brilliant Pep’; that’s the same ‘brilliant Pep’ who has never won the Champions League without the involvement of Lionel Messi…

  • Howardmicks Howard Saurin (@Howardmicks) reported from Preston, England

    @btsport @SkyHelpTeam bt sports ultimate ?? On sky really...Big let down could at least update your customers what's going on......disgrace

  • 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 .

  • aptyson1960 Alan Tyson (@aptyson1960) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia very disappointed that being a customer for nearly 25 years doesn’t warrant any discount but being a new one did. Bye bye I’m off to @bt_uk

  • BaptistBecker1 Spezza (@BaptistBecker1) reported from Southport, England

    Just seem a few snippets from the @btsport punditry panel after the game last night. Thank **** I was at anfield and not listening to that

  • G_Landry17 Gary Landry (@G_Landry17) reported from Formby, England

    @btsport Your after match commentary is so poor ! Dreadful and dull get @jjenas8 off your team he is dreadful

    @BTCare any indication When customer access to email will be restored?

  • cdfalexander Colin Alexander🎬🎵🕹️🚗🏃 (@cdfalexander) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    Think @bt_uk and @WeAreOpenreach @OpenreachHelp are trolling us now. 12th day with no phone or broadband. Date keeps slipping, now to 6th September. I phone they say they'll be doing it today. Engineer in our cabinet knows nothing. Vans all around area. No fix. Sick. Of. This.

  • cdfalexander Colin Alexander🎬🎵🕹️🚗🏃 (@cdfalexander) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    Just been told by @bt_uk that @WeAreOpenreach @OpenreachHelp won't be able to fix our fault (caused by them changing telegraph pole) until tomorrow. That'll be 8 days without service. Incredible. #openreach

  • cdfalexander Colin Alexander🎬🎵🕹️🚗🏃 (@cdfalexander) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    4 days without a phoneline or broadband since @bt_uk @WeAreOpenreach changed our telegraph pole last week. I realise it is a #FirstWorldProblem but terrible service and communication from a huge Comms company. Also the pole isnt straight!

  • RussJerichoArt Russ Jericho (@RussJerichoArt) reported from South Shore, England

    My name is @2Sharp_d, I give the worst kind of promos that #BTSport advertise in-between their programming… Got a washing-up sponge that’d finish this clown off in less than 4 rounds. lol #WWERaw

  • YorkLassinLancs Yorkshire Lass (@YorkLassinLancs) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    @bt_uk I have had a complaint in about my below performance broadband since Oct. it’s an insult that your current advert promises so much when I can’t get what I am paying for now. How do I get one person’s contact details to get this resolved??

  • JulieDique julie dique (@JulieDique) reported from South Shore, England

    @Martainho21 @btsportfootball Me too plus he’s not biased . Like now Liverpool are on and can’t listen to McManaman as it’s just too one sided . I’m a city fan but I think Gary Neville is also good as he says it as it is . @btsport is on the whole terrible for pundits .

  • adhdiwill ADHD Will 🇺🇦 #FBPE #BLM 🇺🇦 (@adhdiwill) reported

    @btbusinesscare I think the problem is you say you want us to lock in a better deal, by renewing our contract, but you’re accidentally showing us the deals only available to new customers. Who am I supposed to complain to about this? Is it ofcom? Trading standards?

  • Delna1234 Delna (@Delna1234) reported

    @jonesrachelann @btbusinesscare @Keir_Starmer Just occurred to me that I’ve heard of a number of people having problems with O2 and Virgin. All having difficulty with problems re getting through to call centres . O2 keep saying caller failed the security test until they threatened complaint

  • jim_morrison123 Jim Morrison (@jim_morrison123) reported

    @jonesrachelann @btbusinesscare Hi Rachel Did you get it sorted? We are in the same boat. The sales are great but then the technical support in India is useless. We are on the 7th week and its still not working. I think I have made 40-50 calls in total and its still not working.

  • Dave_Goodhand Dave Goodhand (@Dave_Goodhand) reported

    @btbusinesscare Hi I work for a local council, I'm trying to help a customer with an address for some stables, BT say they need an address for a connection, but stables aren't something which Royal Mail would issue an address to, How does BT deal with these situations? Thanks

  • Alex250175 Alex Usher (@Alex250175) reported

    Good Morning @btbusinesscare, Have sent a DM but had no response, would like to close out this fairly simple issue quickly please.

  • SteveGrange77 OriginalCrackfox (@SteveGrange77) reported

    Our Internet went off on 21st June, service finally restored on 10th July. 09:27 this morning - major service outage in the area.... Oh dear @bt_uk / @BTCare, not a great experience at all....

  • SadrniaK Keya Sadrnia (@SadrniaK) reported

    @EE/@bt_uk/@BTCare-We moved my elderly parents to Digital Voice. Now we cannot switch the voicemail feature off. Why can you not add the ability to switch this feature off, especially for the elderly? They cannot work Voicemail in the upper 80’s. Help create the ability to action

  • dr_phil_ok Phil (@dr_phil_ok) reported

    @btbusinesscare Tried this. No further forward. @WeAreOpenreach are apparently swtiching off our 300mbps service and have rolled out fibre to all but ten house in my area so the only option is a 75% downgrade. They have no idea when our sevice will be dropped, no idea when we will get fibre....

  • jane_stevens7 Jane Stevens (@jane_stevens7) reported

    @bt_uk @BTCare raised complaint with @bt_uk yesterday return call due today before 1.30pm for update…..Guess what ….. failed again to call ! Poorly run service time to cancel #nowtv #Bt #EE

  • mccroryhair McCrory Hair ✂️ (@mccroryhair) reported

    @btbusinesscare absolute **** show. Broadband and phone down since Saturday. Still no resolution. Five days days of Business lost. You are a joke.
