    @SkyHelpTeam Hi. Is there a problem in the Hayes Bromley area? Broadband and phone line is down. This is the 2nd time in 2-3 weeks this has happened and last time was down for 48 hours. Not great.

  • lgoodland Luke G (@lgoodland) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Please don’t insult my intelligence with a copy and paste reply that you’ve sent to masses of customers. You know you had a massive outage last night and it’s nothing to do with my line.

  • Lid_Sheehan Lid 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇪🇸🇮🇪 (@Lid_Sheehan) reported

    @allanrobbins @SkyHelpTeam Im in BR4 with the same issue so suspect yes. 2nd time in as many weeks 🤬

  • katiebonniew Katie Wells (@katiebonniew) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam There has been a wider issue detected - a few weeks ago it was gone for 2 days. We’re paying for the BT wifi hotspot so that we are able to work. Do you have a timeline for when this will be fixed?

  • bessieboo23 Suzanne (@bessieboo23) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam hi. Apparently there’s an outage in BR2? In the middle of an important zoom call - can you give any further info please?

  • NewMarston104 Marcus W (@NewMarston104) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Problem with Olympics on Eurosport. For last few days extra sports have been available by pressing i button on Sky remote as per instruction on screen. Today’s instruction is red button which then shows a page that says Sky Sports Arena and reverts to basic Eurosport

  • Leighla lei ♡ (@Leighla) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam yea it was back up but it took 2 hours or so. I wasnt even aware there was a ‘national’ problem nobody mentioned it well enough.

  • allanrobbins Allan Robbins (@allanrobbins) reported

    @bessieboo23 @SkyHelpTeam It really annoys me when the people on the Twitter team just send a standard response. I know they’re not responsible for the outage but they should take ownership of their replies rather than just trying to fob people off with cut and paste replies.

  • Bringbackharry C0ystillidie (@Bringbackharry) reported

    @LastWordOnSpurs @SkySports He's jus come back from holiday and doing what everyone else has to...,SELF ISOLATING.....day 2 day 5 paid release.its not to force a move,its to stop covid spreading if he got it Sky can **** off

  • Trevorlloyd92 Trevor Lloyd (@Trevorlloyd92) reported

    @Superspurs131 Sucks. Skysports **** themselves into a coma about it as well... weakens the entire league

  • Vivy1981 Vivy Randolph 😻🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿👩‍❤️‍👨 🌈 (@Vivy1981) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Well perhaps take it off your website where it says you can cancel a home move online then.

  • BaggiesTom1 Tom (MR T) (@BaggiesTom1) reported

    @SkySports Stupid decision

  • SebastiaanRos Sebastiaan Ros (@SebastiaanRos) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Yeah it seems to be working again. Guessing there was an outage in the Birmingham area? Fingers crossed it stays this way!

  • Compadre1224 Keensoy (@Compadre1224) reported

    @BBCSport @SkySports Like many peoope, I used to respect the BBC, but no longer do. The hatred BBC shows to women and children in effectively supporting abuse of various forms to women and children, partly in support of woke culture, is reprehensible

  • GRLS0903 Giovanna (@GRLS0903) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam @katiebonniew There’s an outage in the whole area so why are you advising her to waste her time.

  • GRLS0903 Giovanna (@GRLS0903) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Sky outage in BR2. The last time this happened two weeks ago it lasted over 24hrs. Is there an ETA? People are working from home and need to let their bosses know what’s happening.

  • BrianJo99808065 Brian Johnson (@BrianJo99808065) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam broadband down in London Bridge area? This keeps happening… What is eta ?

  • AmyElizabethRx amy-elizabeth (@AmyElizabethRx) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam how can I cancel my whole sky package?

  • magacious Maggie Holland (@magacious) reported

    .@SkyHelpTeam Broadband down in SS9. No info as to how long fix may take - can you advise please? Thanks

  • carleshaarmani carly (@carleshaarmani) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam why is your wifi so crap?????????? 😕

  • lgoodland Luke G (@lgoodland) reported

    @markhodsoll @SkyHelpTeam You’re not alone Mark. Last night there was a major outage around 2am across the entire country and they’re not even admitting it. This is continually happening now. Like myself, probably worth moving ISP, I’m going back to BT who I never had any issues with.

  • FC_Deepbridge Fuchsia Curry (@FC_Deepbridge) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam broadband down in Sw12 - any chance of an eta of it being fixed??

  • MarkDav29495983 Mark Davidson💙 (@MarkDav29495983) reported

    @SkySports My two years is up in December and then I’m out👍 I will stay up on Saturday for MOTD and watch the 10 mins of half half decent action? Instead of the 90 mins of dross full of diving and **** VAR decisions and awful commentary👍 got shot of BT and Sky your next👋👋👋

  • Hayley62229788 Hayley (@Hayley62229788) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Can you tell me if there’s a known issue in my area as I don’t have the time right now to spend ages trying to speak to someone at Sky on the phone however if it’s just my broadband I’ll then have to!

  • paulspan001 Tall Paul (@paulspan001) reported

    Where’s the @SkySports outrage? Where’s the @GNev2 outrage? Where’s the @GaryLineker outrage? City and their Arab owners ruin our game but it doesn’t seem to concern you but the European Super League..oh no, that would be terrible for football. Wonder why there’s no outrage here?
