    @SkyHelpTeam Hello, I just checked it and it shows the last time I ordered a Sky Q mini box, no order on there for a router 🤔 the call taker mentioned there were issues with the system on sky’s end and he had escalated it. Can this be pushed through in any way?

    @SkyHelpTeam The problems can't be resolved by following the link.......have you actually taken a look at the community forum ??? HDR v3 box not fit for purpose (sound cutting out) is the discussion title.

  • juliegreener ToonJules (@juliegreener) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam hi I’m currently having a house extension and need to move my sky dish as can no longer get a signal. Can you tell me how much this will cost and when this work can be done - the extension is almost complete externally but builders still on site.

  • Aido_L Aidan Leahy (@Aido_L) reported

    @gash_the @SkySports @david12egan Well obviously I’d they stay up but if they go down he’s saying bye bye

  • crgthomson Craig Thomson (@crgthomson) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Do you have a timeframe for a fix for this yet?

  • OldbonesTheGood Richard Oliver (@OldbonesTheGood) reported

    @SkySports WBA were fools to sack Bilic and employ Allardyce. If they'd gone down with Bilic a good chance they'd be straight back up, and he had them playing some good, watchable footie.

  • oldschlomo oldschlomo (@oldschlomo) reported

    @SkySports Don’t care cos I cancel my sky subscription.

    @SkyHelpTeam My broadband stopped working out of nowhere, is there any problem with the broadband today because I've been reading the latest tweets and it isn't just me who's having a problem

  • cjmclean80 Emos Spam (@cjmclean80) reported

    Day 3 of @SkyHelpTeam not recording properly or downloading advising remote network problem. Definitely not a broadband issue as have been able to watch over a firestick.

  • TwoProngCrown The Green Manalishi (@TwoProngCrown) reported

    @Jason4COYS I would say at Spurs he’s not only inherited the worst defenders he’s ever had, but also a club that is desperately anxious before every big game which is always exaggerated by biased @SkySports &media purposely making sure we’re aware of the cost of failure before every big game

  • Skippy561 skippytv1956 (@Skippy561) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam @HelsE88 Please stop suggesting using the sky online because you've got a problem & your just papering over the cracks. Prove that our custom is important to you & look into it. All these people can't be wrong.😡

  • sanaasxdiq Ullu Ki Pahti (@sanaasxdiq) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I live in the TW7 area and there seems to be an issue with the Internet. I’ve tried resetting it and disconnecting it and following the instructions online but it hasn’t worked. It’s been like this for over 2 hours.

  • LukeCostello13 LDC5678 (@LukeCostello13) reported

    @forbisher809 @MbThechef @SkySports Sorry mate just realise Swansea and Cardiff but the reason I called it the EPL is because the league is based in England, I see no issue with calling it the EPL
