    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK It's at times like these that you find out what Customer Service really means and who actually has it. Good on you for calling them out...

    @Wiglanta1971 @SkyBroadband @SkyHelpTeam At least Sky atrocious customer service has always been garenteed.

    The irony after being on the phone to three people at @SkyHelpTeam (mobile) that the line is so bad they just hang up. Spoke to three people who eventually said I need to speak with another team. Fuming hahahhha

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK Feel your pain. Tv license people for me were horrible.. "will there still be a tv in the house" the thoughtlessness

    @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 Just pay what you calculate to his date of passing and let them sue his estate for the service provided while he was dead. See how far they get with that

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK The worst company I had to contact when my husband died was Microsoft. He had some software set up to auto renew. Impossible to cancel unless I had access to his emails.

    @MarkB7109683170 @SkySports Embolo cheated trying to get Paredes his 2nd yellow card and it blew all over his face. It was a stupid play, good job by the ref.

    @SkySports I subscribe to Sky & Sky sports but it does not appear I have ITVX. If this is correct I will cancel my Sky subscription. I’m tired of being scammed with increased subtle subscription additions.

    @SkySports He dived to win a foul & possibly get an opponent booked. That’s cheating and it deserved a yellow which meant a red as he’d already been booked. If was the Swiss manager I’d be raging at Embolo for doing such a stupid thing when already on a yellow.

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK Hope you dont have mobile with them- when my late husband died we tried to cancel hus mobile account and get back the £50 credit i had put on account so he could ring people from hospice - they insisted on talking to account holder even after we sent screem shot death certificate

    @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.

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK When my mum died and Im wanted to take over the contractthey said I wouldn't be able to keep her number for the land line she had for 15 years. Told it wasnt possible. Until I made the biggest complaint and fuss and magically they were able to let me have it. Horrible company.

    @SkySports Wasn’t ‘external’ it’s within the perimeters of the field. It’s ****** stupid having it there in the first place.

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK Virgin have a terrible reputation and have just received a massive fine. I need to look at my broadband with them. Can't bear the thought of phoning to cancel.

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK i recently left virgin media they are not a good service provider when trying to end the contract, try getting help with family member or even a lawyer or cab which are very good

    @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.

    @SkySports With all the controversy and bitching in this WORLD CUP, which laughably is supposed to bring Countries together, there shouldn’t be another World Cup, never mind expanding it!!

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK A shame to see they haven't upped their game. When our dad died, nearly 20 years ago, my sister ended up explaining to a number of call handlers that the account owner would not be able to cancel his own account unless they had a seance...

    @B_JMills @F_Edits @SkySports If viewers can see the sudden change in direction, VAR—with access to multiple angles and replay speeds—should be able to examine it properly. Calling the incident inconclusive solely because the chip didn’t react ignores what the footage appears to show.

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK I had so much trouble with virgin when my mother died. I said I was ending the contract. 10 mins later they rang to offer her new channels free if she stayed. I replied “ she’s bloody dead and and God has sky in heaven.” They got the point! I’d even emailed.
