  • TakomaBrockston Tom Dickson (@TakomaBrockston) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam This is very disappointing and was not something I was ever made previously aware of. Is there anything you can do to help?

  • HellenaHandcart HelenaHandcart (@HellenaHandcart) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam So your support "options" consist of waiting in line for an unspecified period of time on the off chance that you get through to an undermanned service?

  • AdKido44 AdKido44 (@AdKido44) reported

    @SkySports I don't hear Dermot Gallagher saying this about all the penalties WBA should have had, or shouldnt have been given against them or about goals WBA have conceded that should never have been given.

  • sdb1979 Steve (@sdb1979) reported

    Well @SkyUK Broadband down again... After over 15 years with Sky in one form or another it's becoming more apparent that its time to leave 😢 Decent BB service that is happy for you to use your own router/modem? Go.... #broadband #InternetShutdown #RubbishService

  • MelissaBaileyy 𝑀𝑒𝓁𝒾𝓈𝓈𝒶 🌻 (@MelissaBaileyy) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Thanks, still not working no one answering phone line

  • Xander_LUFC Xander (@Xander_LUFC) reported

    @McClumsy84 @SkySports Horrible fan base

  • sdb1979 Steve (@sdb1979) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Done that, you say there's no problem (like you always do) yet other sites like down detector (@DowndetectorUK ) say the opposite. Your service is bad and you know it 😢

  • lornabrown1987 ❤️️lorna❤️️ (@lornabrown1987) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam It just says we have detected a problem with your setup. But my setup has been the same since it was installed by one of your engineers. I just don’t think it’s fair given the current pandemic and 4 of my children are trying to do their schooling at home.

  • carys_leah Carys Leah (@carys_leah) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi my wifi is totally down, I’ve connected to the sky hub and it says the Broadband is disconnected despite the hub working

  • alcedohalycon Richard Cliffe (@alcedohalycon) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I’m working from home in Hove/Brighton. Internet connection continually keeps dropping. Is there a problem in #Brighton #Hove ? This is really annoying !!!!

  • Beansweet Janine Sweet (@Beansweet) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I've already done all that. No resolution.

  • ThingsMyGirlfr3 ThingsMyGirlfriendSays (@ThingsMyGirlfr3) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I've already been down that route and have spent in total over seven hours on phone calls with your agents. It's completely ridiculous and I'd like to raise a formal complaint.

  • sutarettodeen DeanoStar (@sutarettodeen) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam joined sky in December. After multiple calls broadband and TV still not working. And almost impossible to get through to. Waste of time and money

  • nobygdyl NoBigDeal (@nobygdyl) reported

    @LastWordOnSpurs @SkySports Yeah, he's really good player, but 35 millions for championship player is too much. We should get Bogle instead. Sheffield will go down and his price will be around 20 millions if not less then that.

  • purplekelly Kelly Dudley (@purplekelly) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam my internet keeps going down. Works for two minutes then down for an hour. I've restarted it and reset all to no avail. Two of us working from home. Please help.

  • NednraquelR Nednraquel Rodgers (@NednraquelR) reported

    @SkyUK hi, I’ve tried calling, I’ve checked the app and website as requested, but I can’t find anything to help me get PUK codes for my old phones from Sky. Can you help please?

  • musohiggs Martin Higgins (@musohiggs) reported

    @brianzeilinger @SkyUK Did the same to us when moving house a couple years ago. Cancelled our broadband a whole month early due to an error on their side. Had to buy mobile data packs until moving house. ‘Nothing we can do’ was always their line. Never going with them again.

  • richardaburns Richard Burns (@richardaburns) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam hey folks, i'm trying to get a price for signing up for broadband with yourselves. i keep seeming to get stuck in a loop via the website. can you help me? thanks. i've got Sky TV at the mo, too

  • darrenjaxon77 DKJ77LFC (@darrenjaxon77) reported

    @SkySports Never getting that for a full back especially with in covid times! But probably don't need to sell!

  • ThingsMyGirlfr3 ThingsMyGirlfriendSays (@ThingsMyGirlfr3) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam repeatedly getting problems trying to use netflix on my sky box. Either I select netflix and it tries to load up and then goes back to sky again or it freezes. Have been having problems with broadband and TV since before Christmas so this is really getting painful.

  • SuziDouglas4 Suzi Douglas (@SuziDouglas4) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I have done nothing but contact them since Sunday and they have been as much help as a chocolate fire guard. No internet since Saturday, blaming everyone else then charging me for an item I didn’t receive and telling me you can’t refund me was just the icing on the cake.

  • LornieK Lorna Kirk (@LornieK) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam @SkyHelpTeam it’s a sky Q box. Happening every day and constantly calling customer support

  • katewinney LittleMissWinney (@katewinney) reported from Tottenham, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Good morning, not sure what ‘in’ is but we’ve rang, emailed and attempted to use the website in order to deal with the issue. We haven’t been able to contact anyone directly who can assist us. Surely there’s a direct number to someone in the UK who is able to help sort this out?

  • alcedohalycon Richard Cliffe (@alcedohalycon) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I live in private rented accommodation so I’m not the account holder. Is there an outage issue in the Brighton/Hove area?

  • MelissaBaileyy 𝑀𝑒𝓁𝒾𝓈𝓈𝒶 🌻 (@MelissaBaileyy) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam my wifi has gone down, north wales

  • SuziDouglas4 Suzi Douglas (@SuziDouglas4) reported

    @SkyUK Jesus you are really taking the mickey now. Not only did you **** my order up twice and leave me without broadband since Sat you have charged me delivery for the router you didn’t provide and now you’re telling me you can’t refund me. WORST customer service ever. AVOID.

  • Robfogler Robert Fogler (@Robfogler) reported

    @RobboWozGod @SkySports Wow thanks didn’t remember exactly. HORRIBLE and then this guy says good goal for WBA should be first embarrassed and second relieved of his duties

  • HellenaHandcart HelenaHandcart (@HellenaHandcart) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam One option for support is not "services". It's "service", singular -if you can even call it a service. The only other option then is to pay money up front and wait 3 weeks for an engineer to turn up and tell me that I'll still get poor coverage?

  • CambridgeMcg A Matt in Cambridge (@CambridgeMcg) reported

    @SkySports They've ironed out their defensive problems. 😖

  • GregStory1976 Greg Story (@GregStory1976) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam why am I still paying £45 month when in haven’t been a customer for 3 months, your website is no help in this case and impossible to speak to someone
