  • ca95014 Dom 🎧📱👨🏼‍💻 (@ca95014) reported from Liss, England

    @bt_uk I love how BT Sport on a BT Tv box over BT broadband is absolutely unwatchable. Such a poor service. Skips, pauses, quality drops.

  • leymude leymude (@leymude) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @BTCare @BTGroup @bt_uk Hey what’s going on, you’re still taking money out of my account for a service I don’t want when I thought we had this sorted, and you wonder why I want to cancel, seriously cheesed of now. This has been going on for months.

  • LeeDonkin4 Lee Donkin (@LeeDonkin4) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @MetMattTaylor @British_Airways Try @bt_uk it does get worse. Maybe it's just the "British" in the name we expect too much but then again just acceptable service would be a good start!!

  • simm_minogue Simm Minogue (@simm_minogue) reported from Whitehill, England

    @btsport Seriously, expected to be busy and just not prepared to handles the volume this eve. YouTube coverage isn’t same as what’s on the app - terrible. Don’t wanna watch on my phone I want it on my tv! Shambles.

  • clivewaller clive waller (@clivewaller) reported from Stroud, England

    Dear @bt_uk, I have been holding on to your “we are very busy, as always line”for 17 minutes, and counting! I was going to order a new phone. Now I’m cancelling the line. Appalling service

  • alexandasmith Alex Smith 🦊 (@alexandasmith) reported from Farnborough, England

    Thought the Maguire half and half picture was bad but this is a new level... No words.... Glad BTSport got the rights to UCL next season when we are there, with these 2 at the back! #lcfc

  • Tsar_Nicholas Nicholas Mazzei (@Tsar_Nicholas) reported from Hook, England

    @pmalinski83 @SkySports @SkySportsPL @bt_uk I get why they avoid it, having been in the BT corporate affairs team until recently and wanting them for ages to take a stronger stand on these issues. It’s risky. But these companies have power and if they want to do something about it, here’s their chance

  • simm_minogue Simm Minogue (@simm_minogue) reported from Whitehill, England

    Imagine paying £20 to subscribe to @btsport last Saturday and still a week later not having the channel! Terrible. Always ‘busy’ when you phone them and callback service is a sham. Awful awful company. #rant

  • richardpotty (Potts) ATFC (@richardpotty) reported from Farnborough, England

    Stop pronouncing German clubs in the stupid accent 🤦 #Bundesliga #btsport

  • NWVT Nick Williams (@NWVT) reported from East Meon, England

    @bt_uk No internet in Hampshire area is it currently down. looking like mass outages with down detector been on hold for 40+ mins as a self employed business I need the Internet more than ever.

  • barker316 Dan (@barker316) reported

    Anyone else on @virginmedia have a problem with the sound and picture not matching up on @btsportrugby @btsport UHD? The HD channels are fine but the audio is about a second behind the picture on #BTSportUltimate

  • SpannaD 💙🐝👑Spanna Monkey 🔧🐵🙊🏴‍☠️ (@SpannaD) reported

    @bt_uk As a customer would BT openreach ring to say there is a problem with a cut in the network to why our internet could be slow.. They wanted me to use a mobile/tablet/computer etc.. I’m smelling a scam so said I had no mobile not tablet etc and to ring back so I could check..

  • wcbutcher Bill Butcher (@wcbutcher) reported from Kidlington, England

    For a communication co @virginmedia aren’t very commutative. Their internet is down AGAIN. 3rd time in 2 weeks. I saw one of their men at a roadside junction box. That’s dangerous they should leave that to the experts. I am seriously thinking of returning to @bt_uk

  • karenellaB Karen Higgins (@karenellaB) reported

    Now it might seem like a minor inconvenience the broadband being down for 7 hours in #Shrewsbury but queues are building up in supermarkets as a result of slow tech and cash is being requested. Now I'm guessing that is not ideal in the current pandemic scenario @bt_uk

  • yeltzland John Pollard (@yeltzland) reported from Hexham, England

    Having to watch Chorley v Derby with the the sound off. The fake crowd noise is always awful, but @btsport think the Chorley crowd would normally sound like an under 9s swimming gala 🙄

  • SealeyMike Mike Sealey (@SealeyMike) reported

    @stagetechuk @btsport Pirating dropped when streaming services like Spotify and Netflix made it easier. Now everyone and their mum wants to run a streaming service the risk/reward ratio favours piracy again.

  • Londoncomment1 Londoncomment (@Londoncomment1) reported

    @bt_uk dealing with your company is like psychological warfare. Literally nobody knows what they are doing other than passing you from one queue to another. The worst. 2 hours on the phone, just been cut off and now I'm going to have to start again.

  • crownerjohn geraldus (@crownerjohn) reported

    @bt_uk Shrewsbury broadband down. When will it be fixed?

  • BeeNubian NubianQueenBee (@BeeNubian) reported

    @bt_uk @LBC All done apparently have same problems AGAIN and now visit of an engineer not due till Thursday. So no internet till Thursday 🤬🤬🤬 and yet I am still paying

  • The60ftOctopus Davy (@The60ftOctopus) reported
