    Has anyone else had issues with @NetflixUK on @SkyHelpTeam? When opening the app and selecting a PIN locked profile it gets stuck there. Workaround is to select a random programme direct from the planner then enter PIN. Weird

    Sky broadband has got to be the worst @SkyHelpTeam

    @SkySports @Carra23 @PaulInce TAA has been poor this season and Thiago has been injured but we know from the comms that Carra has his tongue up the arse of every liverpool player.

  • birdmanWl Wayne Bird (@birdmanWl) reported

    @MrDarrenFox @SkySports I’m fine, just hate the bullshit, Crawley had their best ever result at the weekend and the headline was about a Z lister knocking them out. Shame on Crawley for this sorry state. Must need the cash!! He’s not a bad player but **** me I’d probably still make it at 46!!

  • yrumbles Yvonne Rumbes (@yrumbles) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I cannot view subtitles when viewing downloaded content. It happens with multiple channels and I have to use 3rd party apps to get subs. The content has subs when viewed live or recorded but not when downloaded, even when it says they are on. Please help.

  • ianbeeffreeman Ian Beef Freeman (@ianbeeffreeman) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Apparently it's an outside problem, a member of bt has been out but hasn't worked. But now we've lost the Internet, loss of data, loss of games consoles, and loss of q-box, 3 days already and won't be fixed until at least Monday

    @SkyHelpTeam can you advise re broadband issues today? At some points we had 0.1 download and 0.07 upload speeds whilst both trying to work at home. Has there been a problem?

  • joeallen_89 Joseph Allen (@joeallen_89) reported

    @SkySports @Carra23 @PaulInce TAA? He’s been ****! I get Wan Bissaka’s game is limited but Trent has been abysmal this season. Let’s not forget the main job of a RB is to defend, something which TAA cannot do.
