    @SkyHelpTeam @NationalTheatre @NTLive - have had problems trying set up my ability to watch NT at Home content today. As my TV is older, I watch other streaming apps via my Sky Q box. It would be great if Sky could add the NT app alongside the usual streamers please!

    @SkySports 54.5% of SkySports viewership have never kicked a ball in the air and it shows.

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK Very sorry for your loss. I left virgin media a few years back after very poor service and I am hearing lots of examples recently of why I will never return.

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK I used the Lifeledger website to do this and it was so simple to do. I picked up a leaflet on it from the Registras office when I went to register the death. It's a brilliant service to contact all the utilities, financial services and pension providers.

    @SkySports @SkyCricket Feel like you are desperately trying to push "The Hundred" every year, even though every year most people can clearly see it's completely awful. It's not cricket, it's not entertainment, it's just shite. Marketing shite.

    @SkySports That’s the problem with the modern game. Embolo CLEARLY dived. He deserved his second yellow, even if it came about in a weird way. The only one genuinely at fault there was Breel Embolo, yet he defends him. That’s what’s wrong.

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK If Virgin Media are such money grabbing filth that they don’t want to believe a grieving person that contacts them and just terminate the contract they should at least backdate it based on the death certificate. Anything other than that is disgraceful.

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK There are lots of bad stories about Vodafone on here, just been fined millions for bad service. There's some advice about how to get your way, I can't remember if it was Martyn Lewis or not. Ask AI...

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK They’re a terrible company. They pursued me through debt collection agencies for £38 I didn’t owe them. £38! I was tempted to just pay it to get them off my back. I’d get phone calls from the debt collector late at night! Awful company.

    @SkySports Wtf does that matter. The rule is crystal clear so if 54% thinks that who cares. You should rather make a poll if Fifa is as corrupt as the pgmol. I’m praying for England to beat Argentina but good luck with the refs and VAR. They won’t be helping you this time.

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK When my grandad died, the council sent my Mum a bill as he hadn’t given notice to quit his OAP bungalow. Mum replied saying that as the contract was with him & not her, they should contact him at plot 25, Chelmsford Graveyard. She never heard anything after that.

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK Virgin Media are unambiguously the worst company I’ve ever dealt with. They had the recent ruling against them for a reason. Profit over Compassion every single time…

  • OmalleyAFC
    tO (@OmalleyAFC) reported

    @B_JMills @F_Edits @SkySports I don’t expect the referee to stop play if he didn’t see the incident. However, I do expect VAR to intervene after the goal, especially when the players and staff were telling the referee what had happened.

  • OmalleyAFC
    tO (@OmalleyAFC) reported

    @B_JMills @F_Edits @SkySports The absence of a signal from the chip is evidence, but it isn’t definitive proof that no contact occurred. VAR is supposed to consider all the available evidence, including the footage and the ball’s trajectory.

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK When my husband died I tried to speak to Three to cancel his mobile plan. They insisted they would only speak to the account holder. I told them I hoped they had a very good psychic medium on hand. I was also told by his car insurance co that they didn't consider me next of kin?!

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK I had the EXACT same issue with Virgin, I had to literally refuse to get off the phone when I got through for 4 hours and basically said I'd hang up when they actually helped me. Absolutely useless customer service

    @swain_dog_ @F_Edits @SkySports It’s never a pen! Hence why it was ruled out! Regarding the cam/wire, the rules Are clear! The ball should’ve been stopped and dropped.
