    @SkyUK Hours of phone calls, not the channels, app and service I was promised and now I am without internet from Monday. Someone didn’t do their jobs correctly but I might get a free dongle. How nice off them ….. not.

  • 1867Rus Rus 💙 (@1867Rus) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam we have sky glass now. U need to stop sport notifications landing on the phone before they happen on the TV otherwise might as well cancel sports

  • ian_paul428 Ian Tomlinson (@ian_paul428) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Apparently it's a local area outage, but we've been told nothing about why this has happened or when it will be live again.

  • a_bag001 Andy Bagley (@a_bag001) reported

  • FWonline Fraser (@FWonline) reported

    Fed up of the unreliability of SkyQ box over the past few months. Unit has been down now since Tuesday - despite numerous reset attempts. Just spent 46 minutes on hold in the Sky help line - gave up. VIP but doesn't mean anything with service. Can you help @SkyHelpTeam

  • HRkleinjan Renier KleinJan (@HRkleinjan) reported

  • Tripleayyyyy Alex (@Tripleayyyyy) reported

    @jojolou1973 @SkyHelpTeam I live in Moston (M40) and we're the same. Called Sky and they said there's an outage that can take up to 2 working days to fix (taking us up to Tuesday)! Ridiculous to say the least.

  • carriebyrne1 Carrie Byrne (@carriebyrne1) reported

    @Craig_Pankhurst @SkyHelpTeam Same issues at gf's. Connection so bad was unable to work from hers. Spent weeks trying to get sense from @skyhelpteam who were atrocious. Did some research. Accessed & changed router settings myself & got 4x faster instantly. I'm with With virgin, will never touch sky.

  • Krisdan35 K Daniels (@Krisdan35) reported

    No Internet for 2 hours now, and over no answer to phone calls. Not very good customer service @SkyHelpTeam 🤔

  • Virtual_Vince Vince 🇬🇧 (@Virtual_Vince) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Why is Sky Go so bad? Streaming quality is fuzzy (no, it’s not my internet) Audio keeps cutting out briefly, and the picture is jumpy! This is almost unusable!

  • Sherixxn Sherieen (@Sherixxn) reported

    So instead of talking positively about Merc's seeming improvements. All they're doing at skysports is pushing forward the narrative of George v Lewis. Pathetic. I don't expect better but this is just bad journalism at this point.

  • 360Edgee James Edge (@360Edgee) reported

    @will_madeley @M0ot @SkyHelpTeam Try the HD channel version on Mac. Fixes this issue for me which I also have on the normal channel.

  • PaulNorminton Paul Norminton (@PaulNorminton) reported

    @SkyUK I would have loved my long weekend too If I had some competent help and service from sky. I hope people out there never have issues with their service, as the customer service I have received has been beyond poor. Virgin it is then.

  • gazfloyde GARETH FLOYDE (@gazfloyde) reported

    @IanEllmers @EFL @SkySports Touche! Awful

  • babsofmanc Kids Mum (@babsofmanc) reported

    @TansTopics @SkyHelpTeam Ours has been down for over an hour in Manchester

  • allanf13 Allan Felix (@allanf13) reported

    The SkySports (international) coverage on F1TV having sound issues. Maybe this is F1's way of trying to push viewers to listen to the F1TV commentary. As long as Will Buxton and co are on there, I'll stick to international coverage even with the broken audio. #f1tv #skysportsf1

  • hscholesy Hannah (@hscholesy) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam ‘Workday’ advert on SkyGo means that the audio and video on Sky Formula 1 is out of sync. Is there a fix for this?

  • debbiejk25 debbie kirby (@debbiejk25) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam any updates for reconnectivity issues in brackley northants? We have been down all day and can see Banbury is up and running now thanks

  • Blackers722 David_ZA (@Blackers722) reported

    FP1 has been ruined because of this terrible sound quality/glitches. @SkySports fix your streams please! #forumla1 #MiamiGP
