@SkyHelpTeam we have had a call from one of your advisors to say they have received a notice to say our broadband signal is low and they want to help us get it better. Is this a scam? My husband didn’t give them any details and hung up.

Hi @SkyHelpTeam Was told on the phone last week that i own my router and it isn't locked. Why does the WLAN settings page not allow me to change username and password for a new ISP then pls? No option to enter VLAN # either. Can you fix this to truly unlock? #skybroadband @ofcom

@ReadingFC @SkySports I know it's not the clubs fault, but is someone complaining to the EFL and ifollow? We pay actual money for this service - broadcasting pictures and sound that are in sync is hardly cutting edge technology.

@SkyHelpTeam my parents phone line is faulty. I’ve tried the diagnostics and a different phone and it still doesn’t work. Can’t hear anything as the line is all crackly. Can anyone help please as the wait time for someone to answer a call is 45 minutes

@SkyUK spend 6 years and too many of hours of your life trying to resolve an issue, to be offered a £15 voucher. If COVID hasn't taught you the value of time you clearly don't have any values, or consider your customers important. Do @virginmedia have better values?

Ok - actually have zero internet now @SkyUK. It’s not just a bad service, it’s no service. I can’t do my job on my phone and nor can my partner. Please can someone agree to call me?

@SkyHelpTeam How can you have a fixed business wide timescale of nearly a full month?! In any other profession that would be unacceptable. And the issue here is that is NOT being worked on, and hasn’t been since this was originally raised. No accountability from either party. Disgraceful.
