  • lfcnads Nads (@lfcnads) reported

    @SkyUK is your 4g mobile data down cos mine hasn’t worked all morning?

  • t_fazakas Tamas Fazakas (@t_fazakas) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Seems to be running just now, but again, it intermittently cuts off, either during a work call or during streaming. Are there any works going on in the EH6 area? It's been fine up until the last 2-3 days and since then it's been really bad.

  • DuncsGillespie Duncan Gillespie 💙 (@DuncsGillespie) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam A bit dissatisfied with the service, was on hold for well over 20 mins. Trying to explain to different people the problem. No phone line was ever installed ! My mother is quite vulnerable and needs a landline

  • laurensfrost Lauren Frost (@laurensfrost) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I’ve had no Sky Tv since the storm last month with zero updates on when service will be resumed. Can somebody contact me please to discuss further, and my recent bill.

  • SarahGlancey Sarah Glancey (@SarahGlancey) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Our internet has dropped out 4 times in the last 30 minutes and we have had no update as to any local works going on or any issues. It isn’t good enough. Your PM don’t work as there are no buttons to select options. Please can someone contact me?

  • perryd1978 perry delaney (@perryd1978) reported

    @SkySports embarrassing yourself again trying to now compare kanes goals to Henry this is a joke anyone who knows football knows the score it it’s pathetic. Henry’s goals and trophies are hands down better then Kane. Listen we know he’s a good striker but can not touch Henry.

  • TheVioletEvoli Violet Evoli✨ BLACK AND TRANS LIVES MATTER (@TheVioletEvoli) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam internet light has been off for a day or two now, tried all the steps to fix it and nothings worked? help?

  • Cerebus79 D (@Cerebus79) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Thanks, by all I presume you mean any as I can’t cancel anything I can only upgrade online but any option to downgrade requires a tedious phone call? Why is that please?

  • nathandesmond96 Nathan Desmond (@nathandesmond96) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam It has worked now doesnt work on @VodafoneUK broadband

  • Cerebus79 D (@Cerebus79) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam That’s a contact link. Not a login to your account and downgrade the same as login to your account to upgrade which is my complaint. You get that right? Or are you intentionally being misleading?

  • andymk77 Andy (@andymk77) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam No problem, but like I said if I have to call and sit on hold for ages then it will be to cancel. This is 2022 not 1992. Everything should be able to be managed online.

  • GustarDiane SeeMeeDee (@GustarDiane) reported

    @SkySportsNews @boxxer That's it @SkyUK subscription cancelled from today. It's fuuking garbage 🗑

  • rikofold Rich Pemberton (@rikofold) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Emma. Stop digging. You've already convinced me to cancel the sports and movies I was considering. There's a whole thread on this on your community. I'm sorry you don't get it, all I can say is that you carry your company's attitude well.

  • t_fazakas Tamas Fazakas (@t_fazakas) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam It doesn't mention any issues in my area. Some of the lights go off and blink.

  • alastair_hm Alastair Montgomery (@alastair_hm) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam can you help please? We have had no dial tone or broadband since around 9pm last night. Thank you.

  • JenWattsDesign Jen Watts (she/her) (@JenWattsDesign) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam hi there, on Sky Go on iPad, the recordings screen is suddenly blank. Tried deleting/reinstalling etc. it’s not the connection with the box as I can search for a recording and it appears and I can play via the tv. Sky Go on my phone works fine. Can you help? Thanks!

  • radvidelski DelBoy (@radvidelski) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I have now called 3 times to try & get the new sim working,spending a total of 2.5 hours on the phone,been promised call backs within 24 hours 3 times&have yet to get a single call back to fix the non working sim.Appalling service.I have been with Sky for over 20 yrs

  • Cerebus79 D (@Cerebus79) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam How do I cancel packages on my account online?

  • ChristinaLeia Christina Robinson (@ChristinaLeia) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Why say I can pm you then you don’t reply? I joined sky mobile on Monday and my sim still isn’t activated. I’m without service and need to make phone calls

  • GaiusFrancisco . (@GaiusFrancisco) reported

    @EarlTrapo Why are you not working at skysports yet?

  • guydevere Guy de Vere (@guydevere) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam is using my paymonthly SkyMobile SIM for video conferencing banned in T&Cs? Always drops out during meetings. An O2 PAYG SIM works reliably so don't think it's a signal issue.

  • martynreidphoto Martyn Reid (@martynreidphoto) reported

    Email confirming @SkyUK prices are going up. Time to make the call and cancel the whole package.

  • Bentson87 Bentson87 (@Bentson87) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Wouldn’t bother guys. **** company.

  • SmiffyNL Nicola Smith (@SmiffyNL) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Thanks Liam will give it a go - it’s just frustrating when there isn’t a strong enough Wi-Fi signal to reach the mini boxes that we have paid for - can you offer a booster?

  • alastair_hm Alastair Montgomery (@alastair_hm) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Thanks for getting back to me, ran those last night with no success, talked to your help line just now and they are arranging for an engineer visit.

  • KirstyW46393350 Kirsty Wallace (@KirstyW46393350) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I'm sick of heading over to the bloody hell section and testing my broadband! Maybe if you actually provided the services I'm paying for you wouldn't keep dishing out THE SAME RESPONSE every time. Can never get a helpful reply or speak to a living breathing human apparently.

  • beccadey98 becca (@beccadey98) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi, i’m struggling with my Sky id account and can’t seem to fix it with the help online. please can you drop me a dm

  • mrbilsy ⭐️⭐️⭐️Sean⭐️⭐️⭐️ (@mrbilsy) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam really no help at all on the phone lines. A problem I had back in September still not been resolved and now I’ve been passed to a fourth different person..@Plusnet you do any better?

  • KateTlifecoach Kate Tilston 💙🇺🇦 (@KateTlifecoach) reported

    @SkyUK is it impossible to contact you for help? I have been a customer for 17 years and cannot get hold of anyone to help resolve an issue!

  • andymk77 Andy (@andymk77) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Ok Thanks for not getting back to me. Will be calling up at the weekend to cancel.
