@SkyHelpTeam The problem is someone called me from sky to upgrade to sky Q for £20 but had issues and told me to call back but I can’t call back can I? Then you can only do it online for £199? So why do it online when I know you can get better deal speaking with someone?

@dbrereton @SkyUK Yes... but (and this is the issue) I cannot get through to anyone because the internet is too unstable & dealing in from a mobile is an indefinite wait

@SkyHelpTeam I understand fluctuations, I’ve worked in telecoms for 20+ years, this is a cabinet (card) issue, it’s generating 20+ drop outs a day.... total loss of service, auto re boot etc.... it needs fixing or the transfer reversed without charges

@theinsidernufc @NUFCgallowgate This constant comparison is boring. I never had issue with Bruce getting job @SkySports it’s what I expect from ownership & their ambition. But hoping we may now have owners that are ambitious & want NUFC to be it’s best. In which case we would need to change.

@SkyHelpTeam An approximate 45 minute wait is not acceptable to cancel a part of my package when the customer should be able to cancel with one click online. Am guessing it’s because your call handler has a script to follow to try to persuade us not to drop sports pack (2/2)

@JaseMac1986 @SkySports And this is why they're not arsed about letting their customers down. They're like Mike Ashley, they know they can do what they want and they'll be endorsed by enough paying customers to keep them going. Seriously, £50 a year and I can sort you out...

@SkyHelpTeam despite phone calls and promises of customer service calling back with answers, Sky still hasn’t fulfilled its offer of £75 cash back when I started my contract with them. I would like my money. Get on it. Someone call me.
