  • Pidge76 Pidge (@Pidge76) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Any chance someone can send me a new Q mini box the one you sent about 3 weeks ago just doesn’t work and keeps freezing. I’ve reset and tried every fix known to man. My other boxes work fine so it’s defo the box that’s faulty! 😡😡

  • waynecockerill4 Wayne Cockerill (@waynecockerill4) reported

    @SkyUK Don’t buy #skyglass it’s the most frustrating experience. Picture quality is poor. Programmes freeze for minutes to hours at a time. Keep having to reset ie switch off and on at the socket. Miserable

  • danjones23 Dan (@danjones23) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam hi, I'm a sky vip customer, but can't seem to find when my contract started and ends. Can you help?

  • annependleton1 anne pendleton (@annependleton1) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Why is episode 8 of Blackout on All4 still missing. All the other episodes are there. Surely it's not that hard to add an entire series without missing episodes. This has been highlighted several times over the past few days.

  • HeatonBFC Luke (@HeatonBFC) reported

    @Sporf @SkySports @chris_kammy Sky Sports is losing some real characters from the Saturday afternoon show. The people that have been replacing them so far have been poor, losing Kammy is a big loss

  • cazmcclell Carol (@cazmcclell) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Is broadband currently down in the Belfast area? My router looks like it is working but devices and skybox not connecting to internet.

  • mattygavin1979 Matthew Gavin (@mattygavin1979) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam my contract is due to expire and I have been offered a new deal for £95 pm £20+ more than I'm currently paying. If I go through as a new customer I can get a better package than I've already got for £84 pm? As a sky customer for 10 years I would expect a better deal!

    @SkyHelpTeam No problem, my contract finishes on 14.05.22. It started at a fixed rate for two years of £55-month Broadband landline and TV. Today it's £76. I have had an offer for double the B/Band and telephone for £144 a year cheaper. Sorry, been with you a long time. But rising prices.

  • MeganGilbertYog Megan Gilbert (@MeganGilbertYog) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Our internet has gone down… is it just us????

  • D41Granty David Grant (@D41Granty) reported

    @SkyUK upgrading to SkyQ has been the biggest mistake ever. Changed this month after 21 years as a “VIP” customer and no realistic response to my issues and a system that works 20% of the time. #terribleexperience

  • AddieQuinnear Addie (@AddieQuinnear) reported from Great Saling, England

    @SkyHelpTeam It seems like you're trying to suggest the fault is on my end of things... There is a shocking issue with the Sky feed of every game. The graphics, the audio, the video feed of the game. Are you trying to suggest there isn't an issue with the Sky sports production of VNSL??

  • ursuladevine Ursula Devine (@ursuladevine) reported

    @AislinnClarke @SkyUK 1/2 Just hopefully counteracted similar with another provider after weeks of painstaking communication, repetition, waiting .. absolutely hate dealing with Phone, internet, insurance etc all seem geared towards outlasting the “customer”.. I don’t understand how they can extend

  • Davebot90324770 Dave 💙 (@Davebot90324770) reported

    @Feefifofum_is_i @markandcharlie @SkyUK And them going through a red is stupid, esp that place as they are in a cycle lane only. Will be interesting when you have found the vid, to see the junction and how late they were.

  • Forest_Chat Adam Whale (@Forest_Chat) reported

    @Sporf @SkySports @chris_kammy He has health problems doesn't he? I assumed it was because of that

  • JoeAbbott1989 Joe Abbott (@JoeAbbott1989) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi Ellie. So far nobody can tell us anything. Just that they know there’s an outage. Would really appreciate some more details on when we can expect services back

  • Rubybabes007 Rubybabes (@Rubybabes007) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam sky go not working yet again🙄

  • K15H4N_N Kishan Nathwani (@K15H4N_N) reported

    @SkyUK can you stop ripping off my parents please? Making them hold for 2 hours plus on a call to customer service being passed from one team to another is also not acceptable! Especially with no resolution and still overcharging!

  • TeddyReid19 Teddy Reid (@TeddyReid19) reported

    @Sporf @SkySports @chris_kammy WHY? Wtf I like this guy . Come back right now

  • ganiyate sylvie chaurin (@ganiyate) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam @SkyUK so I have to wait up to Thursday to get your network team to call me! No internet and working from home. Why I am paying the odds for shameful service. Unacceptable. Thinking twice about renewing.

  • jodi_1979 Jodi Stephenson (@jodi_1979) reported
