  • JonStannard Jon Stannard (@JonStannard) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @premierleague serious questions need to be asked about the ref and VAR. If Pickford had broken VVD leg? No action? Still accountable for his actions, the offside is irrelevant. #Peterwalton @btsport

  • philjel1 Philjel (@philjel1) reported from Basildon, England

    @btsport would it be possible to do a pay per view or subscription service? Only want to watch the #GallagherPremFinal but don’t have BTSport.

  • Karbs1961 Marc Karbaron (@Karbs1961) reported from Basildon, England

    @bt_uk that this has been sorted. Just rang back a second time and after 1hr on hold the phone cut off. I am appalled at the disgusting service I have received having been a long term customer. I entered into a new contract with you I don’t expect bills for double the amount 2/3

  • Verscuse 🏳️‍🌈 James 🏳️‍🌈 (@Verscuse) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @KillerKoalaz @bt_uk Perhaps a device or person on your network is using it heavily at this point?

  • CloudyThinking Gary Gould (@CloudyThinking) reported from Rochford, England

    @skytv @bt_uk Transferring to BT Fibre from Sky Fibre, Sky makes error resulting in 3 Days of no internet, no sign of resolution, no accountability, no call backs. Going to cancel Sky Q by end of day as can’t use TV services or phone which is critical as wife is @NHSuk worker

  • howiesway Darren (@howiesway) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @BTCare I have received calls 2 days in a row claiming my PC has a malware issue. I have hung up on both calls, I am assuming this is a scam. This seems to be on the increase.

  • JohnGalley99 John Galley (@JohnGalley99) reported from Great Wakering, England

    I would sell Martial for 10 Bensons, half a lager & a packet of prawn cocktail. I’ve never seen him speak, he is slow, laziest player around and never shows any recovery. I’d go mad if I had strikers like that in my team @rioferdy5 @btsport

    @bt_uk cs is the worst Iv ever experienced. Took an extra £113 out of my account for ‘unreturned’ equipment (not true), then lied to me twice abt refunding after I begged and cried to them bc I have no money to even buy food til they refund me #heartless #terrible #wheresmymoney

  • 5serena5 SerenaL (@5serena5) reported

    @bt_uk I’ve reported it and apparently you can’t fix until Monday- which personally I think just isn’t good enough… not that it’s your fault thank you anyway for reaching out 🙏

  • thejewelbarrow Claire Barrow (@thejewelbarrow) reported

    @btbusinesscare when we report that you have cancelled our broadband in error, how can it possibly be part of the solution to cut off our phones as well? Not happy.
