    @SkyHelpTeam separate time we are completely without wifi, unable to use our sky q mini boxes or access any internet. We have only just been offered for a sky broadband engineer to come out, after our 8th phone call over this issue - and not until January 8th ... (2/x)

    @SkySports It’s only fair to shut down the league now

  • liloliloll lindsay (@liloliloll) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam hi, i'm another one with broadband issues right now - wifi not responsive most of the time, then it is for a few seconds, then it isn't again. i'm logged in to my account and trying to find someone to contact/do line tests but none of the links are helpful.

  • Peaked1nterest Lee Baron (@Peaked1nterest) reported

    So when it's @btsportfootball or @SkySports coverage the game has to go ahead because of the contracts that were signed but when it's @primevideosport coverage of footy it's perfectly fine to cancel the game?

  • CloonfourMegan Dame Megan (@CloonfourMegan) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam @mjwalker Well it’s down here in Norfolk too and downdetector has a huge spike in reports so suggest you get on the case

  • JamesBu21387819 JBs (@JamesBu21387819) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Doesn’t help at all...

  • xLuke17x luke (@xLuke17x) reported

    @NfinityBL @SkyHelpTeam Loads of people I know have had issues. Nothing loading/working

  • AndyNeilWhite Andy White (@AndyNeilWhite) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Are there any issues in M25, internet connection very intermittent

  • thfcforlife2014 Dom (@thfcforlife2014) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam hi sky, I’m having broadband issues. Postcode is en2. Is it me or the service?

  • stevecheal Steve Cheal (@stevecheal) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam is your internet down in Chigwell? No connection and the test broadband page on your site isn’t working either - the link you’re Tweeting for online help doesn’t work

  • Teresab1977 Teresa (@Teresab1977) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam The main issue is my broadband not working. What help is it exactly you do offer?

  • stevecheal Steve Cheal (@stevecheal) reported

    @mjwalker @SkyHelpTeam Same problem for me in Chigwell

  • hls1978 H🏖🗺 (@hls1978) reported from Corby, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi is there a problem with your broadband in Northants please? Can’t connect to our wifi or load sky news any more? I’ve reset everything but same problem? Thanks #skybroadband #sky #wifi

  • kxteh_ kate (@kxteh_) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam could not be more appalled with your service. Switched to your broadband from @virginmedia a couple of months ago and never regretted anything more. Haven't made it through a day of the wifi actually working and now for the 3rd ...(1/x)

  • kerryannmagrath kerry (@kerryannmagrath) reported

    @NfinityBL @SkyUK Mines the same can’t even test connection as that’s down to 😡😡

  • kxteh_ kate (@kxteh_) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam To expect us to be without broadband for this length of time is absurd given the issue was first raised months ago and little help has been offered. We are working/taking exams from home and reliant on the internet as such (3/x)

  • mcuk2014 Mike (@mcuk2014) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Please could you contact the technical team to advise many are reporting issues via Twitter and DownDetector? The number of people affected on Downdetector is rapidly rising. I'd expected the social media team to take action when faced with these facts?

  • paulaer2506 PaulaR (@paulaer2506) reported

    @mjwalker @SkyHelpTeam I’m having same problems. As are several people.

  • millionthtry JB (@millionthtry) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam your broadband isn’t working. Your help pages aren’t working. Obviously an issue with Sky - sort it out.

  • MrAndyboy Andy Wells (@MrAndyboy) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam @Teresab1977 I wouldn’t bother, there IS an issue and it’s affecting the country, a quick search finds that but Sky are just telling everyone there are no known issues and to check their test page WHICH IS NOT WORKING 🤯

  • jared_lowe Jared Lowe (@jared_lowe) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam @craggle_rocks You can’t check your connection on your website as it’s not working

  • MKTInspires Mbulelo Khayalethu Thinta (@MKTInspires) reported

    Dear @premierleague and @SkySports please tell the Commentary team to stop apologising for bad language. It's football not an accounting firm. Society surely isn't that soft is it? #CRYLEI

  • Virtual_Vince Vince 🇬🇧 (@Virtual_Vince) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Can you answer a question for me. Yesterday a box couldn’t be ordered until the ‘back office’ can sort the issue from (tomorrow) - yet I’ve called sky again, and the guy I spoke to has ordered a box to be sent to me?

  • mjwalker Matt Walker (@mjwalker) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam That page isn’t working either, and judging by the amount of tweets you’ve had it seems like you’re down? Can you check please

  • SteveFM70 Steve70⚒⚒ (@SteveFM70) reported

    @adambrown93 If that was Liverpool Skysports would be all over it because Klopp would be bitching about it non stop. But it’s just little old West Ham so we have to accept it, like the VAR **** that goes against us

  • KhalKhan_ Aamir 🏳️‍🌈 | BLM (@KhalKhan_) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hey, is there an issue with the internet service at the moment? It was fine but now it's not. Has been like this for over an hour now. Done the troubleshooting, etc. Devices don't connect at all.
