  • JoMarjoribanks Jo Marjoribanks (@JoMarjoribanks) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi there, I need to speak to your Sales team about upgrading my package, but I can't seem to find a phone number on your website (I'm just going around in circles on your Help pages). Could you give me a number please? Thanks.

  • JoMarjoribanks Jo Marjoribanks (@JoMarjoribanks) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi Liam, I've done that and I can see what's available, but I want to actually speak to someone. I've looked for numbers on your website but can't find them. Your Contact Us section just has a list of help topics and I'm getting no where. Can you provide a Sales number please?

  • milvenan Ross Milvenan (@milvenan) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi, the tech team have refused to contact BT today. Who at Sky can take ownership of this and contact me today to help?

  • Char_Ferg_1407 Charlotte Ferguson (@Char_Ferg_1407) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam He wasn't attending our property. He said he was attending due to another complaint about connection issues. I have told him about the issue and he confirmed our connection is meant to come from the pole he's working on so hopefully he can fix it. 🤞🏼

  • Char_Ferg_1407 Charlotte Ferguson (@Char_Ferg_1407) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam He's left and we still don't have an internet connection, I'm assuming he could be on his lunch break, hoping the issue is resolved soon as my partner has had to take the rest of the day off work as he can't work without the internet. 😩

  • corksabout daniel stork (@corksabout) reported

    "oh no poor sky must be having to increase prices due to the affects of cost of living or something?" This was concerning to me as I really hoped @SkyUK was going to be ok, as I know we are all struggling at the moment with the huge increases in costs of living. I wanted to see

  • TheRealTanya_C Tanya_Collins (@TheRealTanya_C) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam so my bill is being increased by 10% a month whist in contract yet half the time the internet connection is terrible and half the channels are rubbish. Time to cancel when contract is up in august.

  • Emma_Daw88 Emma Dawson (@Emma_Daw88) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam come on guys what is happening with the internet at the moment. For the last couple of weeks ours has been down more than it's been working!! Not really getting what we're paying for.

    @SkyUK hi Sky, I’m trying to work out what offers are on for BT Sports currently but your website keeps taking me around in circles. When I try to do on my sky q box it doesn’t say if it’s a contract or rolling 31 day deal….help

  • milvenan Ross Milvenan (@milvenan) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi, the issue is being ignored. The connection won’t be active until someone helps. Who at Sky can take ownership of this today and help?

  • MrJoshuaBentley Josh Bentley (@MrJoshuaBentley) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi! My Sky Q mini box keeps losing signal. It’s been doing it ever since we’ve had it, and it’s resolved by pulling the power cable out. I’ve tried all sorts of trouble shooting, but I might need a Sky Q Booster?

  • milvenan Ross Milvenan (@milvenan) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi, the service team are saying they can’t help. The issue is being ignored by all concerned. Meantime I still have no connection and can’t work. Can you speak with someone today who can take ownership and make it happen?

  • Mikeydude84 Mikey (Top 0.3% on Duo!) (@Mikeydude84) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam There's an outage in your area, as it's said for the last 36 hours now

  • m1kewood9 Michael Wood (@m1kewood9) reported

  • Char_Ferg_1407 Charlotte Ferguson (@Char_Ferg_1407) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam We can't have either of our mobile phones connected to the internet when he's working as it kills the connection. Same with the TV, I'm not working atm and I can't wait h TV because it affects the connection also (catch up/on demand)

  • TigelaarWilma Wilma_Tigelaar (@TigelaarWilma) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam on your website it says that internet should work again in my area but it is still down. This is the second day now. Are you going to solve it today? I am in CT147 Deal area

  • RHattersly Roy ⓗattersley (@RHattersly) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Even if you did it will fall on deaf ears. Sky seem to think they're still a premium service. The only thing premium is the price. You make Hallmark level films and a nearly unusable UI. You're so lucky you still have the football

  • splodge61 lawn mowerman (@splodge61) reported

    @SkySports A booking at the worst. And I’m a UTD fan. It appears the UTD players have made the situation seem much worse than it really was. Ref should of booked each one of them.

  • milvenan Ross Milvenan (@milvenan) reported

    @OpenreachHelp Day 4 no broadband. Openreach won’t connect the service. Sky won’t help. Can’t work & incurring financial loss every day. Will someone take ownership and instruct the connection to happen today? Or will it be ignored again like every other day? @OpenreachHelp @SkyHelpTeam

  • BaZzAbLuEs BazzaTheBlue🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🕷 (@BaZzAbLuEs) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi Tony, Thanks for replying. The Sky speed tester online always says 70mbps, even when the internet here is not working. Sky tester said over 70 last night, my phone speed checker said 3mbps. We had very little internet.

  • lovelylilelle elle (@lovelylilelle) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam my wifi is down in portsmouth and the sky broadband checker says services aren’t available at the moment please help

  • ChrisJarvis94 Chris Jarvis (@ChrisJarvis94) reported

    Sky Internet been awful for around 18 hours now @SkyHelpTeam got any information on this?

  • 7Shano Shane Kempe (@7Shano) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Ellie, Sky are missing the point. Its a 10% increase during the term if a contract. If I called to cancel I would have penalties to pay would I not ?

  • SarahDreamOn sarah pearse-smith (@SarahDreamOn) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam She did but the adviser didnt mention it , to get this now if it hasnt gone through would she need to cancel and redo it
