  • itsabrickthing Alan 🧜🏻‍♂️ itsabrickthing 🧚🏻‍♂️ (@itsabrickthing) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @denzilOshamen @SkyHelpTeam 2/2 I demanded to speak to a manager. After 15 mins of being told I would get the same answer from a manager, agent went away then came back and told me that they “have found a way to give me the router for free” Sky’s customer service has worsened since I joined 5 years ago.

  • danielsleeth Daniel Sleeth (@danielsleeth) reported from Dunston, England

    @SkyHelpTeam I was really just hoping for an update on when our broadband might be back up and running (4 day outage) but there was very little info about it unfortunately

  • Geordie_Shaun shaun (@Geordie_Shaun) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @SkyHelpTeam how can I get a call back from customer service. Every time I call there’s a 20+ min wait

  • EllisLandreth1 Ellis (@EllisLandreth1) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Sky Q. I’ve had this issue since it was installed last year but it’s happening across more channels. I’ve tried all the trouble shooting methods but we have a communal apartment dish so I’m wondering if this is the reason

  • topazzz9 Moira (@topazzz9) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Thank you to 2 members of @SkyUK the other week who had a promotional stand inside Newcastle’s Eldon 🔲. Your help and plastic carriers were a godsend, as the paper bags @BootsUK are using fell apart just feet from the shop. I’m sure they’re very green, but far too flimsy!

  • PHoare1963 Dr Peter Hoare ⌬ (@PHoare1963) reported from Sacriston, England

    @BenjaminDBarker @Ravens @Saints @SkySportsNFL @SkySports As long as it isn’t the New England Cheaters, I frankly don’t give a damn! Neither of my teams have made the playoffs (again🙄). #GoFins #GoBroncos

  • LeeTheMag LeeTheMag (@LeeTheMag) reported from Whickham, England

    @skysports giving a big **** you to @wwe and not showing smack down live tonight

  • flipflops1982 Philip Robinson (@flipflops1982) reported from Shiremoor, England

    @bluther123 @SkySports @sky @SkySportsDarts @RobCross180 @KimHuybrechts Woeful! Hopefully he’ll put his head down and try harder next year

  • iamAfrosamurai Allan Williams™ (@iamAfrosamurai) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    I'm sure @Eurosport_UK is the most useless channel going. Recorded @dakar highlights only for it to record the overrunning Snooker. So, download the highlights program on my @SkyHelpTeam Q box, only for it to be the same overrunning Snooker program. Its ridiculous really, #cancel

  • candylion5 Sam Hicks (@candylion5) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @SkyHelpTeam @Ofcom @BBCWatchdog Every time you hide our tweets under a PM with the offer of assistance we just reach the same conclusion - you don’t know when we will have internet and phone, refuse to push @WeAreOpenreach to actually do anything, meanwhile Openreach aren’t even trying to fix the problem.

  • itsabrickthing Alan 🧜🏻‍♂️ itsabrickthing 🧚🏻‍♂️ (@itsabrickthing) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @denzilOshamen @SkyHelpTeam Yeah don’t do it! Stick to your guns, you shouldn’t have to pay to fix their service. As soon as the agent said my router was out of warranty and I wasn’t in contract I knew what he was planning 😡 Also his initial “solution” was for me to leave and find another provider! #wtf

  • the_fatman61 Will Grigg scored yet? (@the_fatman61) reported from Washington, England

    @SkyHelpTeam why have you took the skyQ app down. The skygo one is bloody awful

  • Geordie_Shaun shaun (@Geordie_Shaun) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @SkyHelpTeam To cancel so online chat isn’t available

  • drandyhills Andy Hills (@drandyhills) reported from Dunston, England

    @Rog1Ben @Levi_Bowden74 @SkySportsPL @SkySports Haven’t seen footage. If facing wrong way then definitely dislocated and almost certainly tib fib fracture too. Poor guy.

  • Tullic OfficialMickTee (@Tullic) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @SkyHelpTeam is there another problem with Sky emails. Cant access it with password!

  • WickedestWoods HiddenDragon1979 (@WickedestWoods) reported from Longbenton, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Disappointed (actually disgusted) to see that 75% loss of broadband service for over a month results in a goodwill gesture of £14 and that’s it. Let’s ignore the fact that I had to ring you 6 times and be fed various stories from your call operators.

  • fredspoon pipkins (@fredspoon) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @itsdanharvard @SkyHelpTeam So many people using it and buildings etc etc in London it’s just terrible.

  • candylion5 Sam Hicks (@candylion5) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @SkyHelpTeam @SkyUK @WeAreOpenreach @Ofcom No, you won’t help. We’ll keep this public until the problem is solved (which it won’t be)

  • thedoctor_84 mackem gazza (@thedoctor_84) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @SkyHelpTeam am wondering if there is any problems with internet connections in Sunderland. I’ve tried resetting my hub 3 times and still no luck

  • Renegadeangel5 John-Paul Stephenson (@Renegadeangel5) reported from Walker Gate, England

    The hardest thing about dealing with my mum’s estate has been cancelling @SkyHelpTeam They play games to wear you down by passing you to a different team, wasting your time and money.

  • WiggyDom Dominic C (@WiggyDom) reported

    Getting hold of @SkyUK is impossible trying to aske a few questions before I sign up for broadband but they won't let you like chat or call them unless you number is link to an account which you can get before you sign up, absolutely stupid guess I'll take my business elsewhere

  • kevdig00 Kev (@kevdig00) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam checked the link, tested the connection but our Internet is still down since there was an engineer in the street yesterday. Unacceptable

  • KernowBeachBum S A (@KernowBeachBum) reported

    Heeeeeey @SkyUK and @bt_uk, stop refusing ppl what they ask to buy and trying to upsell to fibre. My property can’t get it and you refusing to accept just lost a customer. Hey @TalkTalk, thanks for just accepting what I said and selling me what I asked for 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

  • mrlewisrowling mr lewis rowling (@mrlewisrowling) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Question to all Is the broad band the problem or just the wiri on the sky router .see quite a few complaining about WiFi ?

  • MrsAnnieChad Ann Long (@MrsAnnieChad) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam seems like broadband not working in NE35 NE36 area. Lots of people saying their internet is dropping out all the time. Have done test and it says no problem in area but a number of people saying there is. Can you check?

  • NeilWillArms Neil Armstrong (@NeilWillArms) reported

    @DutchBhoy7 @SkyHelpTeam Yes had same problem. All morning, Sky just keep repeating the same message and it’s not working

  • HBeddowes Helen Beddowes (@HBeddowes) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Just tried that, it's still not working

  • EmilyRHayden Emily Hayden (@EmilyRHayden) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Thanks for the quick response but the last update on the fibre outage was at 8.03am. Any timescale for repair?

  • John__Sharp John Sharp (@John__Sharp) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam hello, is your internet down? woke up to it not working at all, I pressed reset on my broadband box and now the middle light is just staying orange 😔
