  • mikecharlston Mike Charlston (@mikecharlston) reported from Witton-le-Wear, England

    @SkyHelpTeam We’ve had a call today claiming to be needing to check our broadband for issues we’ve had and they had permission from sky head office. The callers English was very poor & the background was noisy. Does this sound like something which is real or a scam?

  • AlisonBLowndes Alison B. Lowndes ✿ (@AlisonBLowndes) reported from Newsham, England

    @SkyHelpTeam That system does nothing when there's an outage. What's the status? DM me please.

  • nickbriggs72 nick briggs🏆💙💛 (@nickbriggs72) reported from Startforth, England

    @CarlCharnley @SkySportsPL @SkySports Why? He was headbutted if you agree Pepe headbutted the incident stops there, why should Alioski get a card for being headbutted? If he hadn’t Pepe might have got away with it which is more wrong

  • NatleyMCRmy Natalie (@NatleyMCRmy) reported from Richmond, England

    @SkyHelpTeam why do you offer boxsets with sky signature but fail to tell people that 90% of the boxsets are in HD which I don't have!

  • jameseuph James McLeod (@jameseuph) reported from Middleton-in-Teesdale, England

    @SkyHelpTeam any word when my broadband is going to start working again? An undisclosed problem in my area for an indeterminate length of time is ... useless really.

  • ub40eboney Cpat (@ub40eboney) reported from Bishop Auckland, England

    @leerobson23 @SkyUK Aye it's not their problem cause they are getting money and pie people off with that bs. It's been same everywhere I've lived mate here, Leam, Deckham, Fawdon and Kenton bar. Sky broadband is the one constant in it all. I've spoke to them loads all I ever get is "it looks fine"

  • mikecharlston Mike Charlston (@mikecharlston) reported from Witton-le-Wear, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Thanks. I thought as much & did hang up as I had a meeting to log onto anyway. Is there any way to block such calls?

  • AlisonBLowndes Alison B. Lowndes ✿ (@AlisonBLowndes) reported from Newsham, England

    Hey @SkyHelpTeam @SkyUK internet connection down. How long??

  • Natalie_MCRmy Natalie (@Natalie_MCRmy) reported from Richmond, England

    @mandy_moooouk @SkyHelpTeam Down for me

  • Monsieur_Ginger Gingerninja (@Monsieur_Ginger) reported from Hunwick, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Nothing more to add? Just as useless as your call centre! Below par service despite collecting 100s each month for years - wonderful.

  • nickbriggs72 nick briggs🏆💙💛 (@nickbriggs72) reported from Startforth, England

    @BiggieGriffiths @SkySports I hope your fishing, otherwise you are a complete idiot in that view as the game would have changed completely

  • jameseuph James McLeod (@jameseuph) reported from Middleton-in-Teesdale, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Yes, because logging in to the website that just tells me there's a problem, with no more explanation is very helpful. I look forward to my account credit for the drop in service.

  • Monsieur_Ginger Gingerninja (@Monsieur_Ginger) reported from Hunwick, England

    @SkyHelpTeam So you asked me to PM you and you just advise calling the customer service number again? Take a bow sky, you have failed to support for a 5th time!

  • Monsieur_Ginger Gingerninja (@Monsieur_Ginger) reported from Hunwick, England

    @SkyHelpTeam You have once again failed to support or help me! .

  • mikecharlston Mike Charlston (@mikecharlston) reported from Witton-le-Wear, England

    @SkyHelpTeam That it would still be affected by the trees. Currently the line of sight in its current location hits the very centre / bulk of the tree. The location I suggested I think at worst would clip some lower branches. I think if mounted low enough it would not hit the tree at all.

  • the_real_ivo David Ivo Iveson (@the_real_ivo) reported from Bishop Auckland, England

    @SkyUK have put their prices up, both for broadband and TV mid contract, can I cancel because they have done this, or am I stuck with them until the end of the contract?

  • Monsieur_Ginger Gingerninja (@Monsieur_Ginger) reported from Hunwick, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Nope. I had to hang up.

  • ub40eboney Cpat (@ub40eboney) reported from Bishop Auckland, England

    @leerobson23 @SkyUK But we could send out a engineer who will say it's fine and we'll charge you a shit load. Luckily virgin fibre is offered here now so see if that fixes it

  • the_real_ivo David Ivo Iveson (@the_real_ivo) reported from Bishop Auckland, England

    @SkySports Should have give him a testimonial for his service to the club

  • NatleyMCRmy Natalie (@NatleyMCRmy) reported from Richmond, England

    @SkyHelpTeam broadband going really slow DL10 area. Can't use services on skyQ because of this!

  • Iron14Lion Samuel (@Iron14Lion) reported

    @SkySports Ffs some of the comments here are disturbing. Guessing all of you have had such perfect lives that you've never had to deal with any kind MH problems? It's sometimes so tough you can't stop vomiting, let alone performing near a high standard competing for medals.

  • markythesparky1 markythesparky (@markythesparky1) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam are you aware of any issues in the mid-Norfolk NR19 area? Phone and B/band off since 7am. If not how do I report a possible line fault? Open reach Engineers working in area yesterday

  • simoniscreative simon (@simoniscreative) reported

    @DanStaples4 @SkyHelpTeam Down here in Lowestoft NR31. Went out about 15 mins ago

  • ZumbaSarahJayne Sarah-Jayne (@ZumbaSarahJayne) reported from Taverham, England

    @Sophs1812 @SkyHelpTeam Ours is not working in NR8

  • Willow_s72 Willow (@Willow_s72) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Broadband down in NR12 area too, please resolve ASAP

  • wrkirkwood Signaller (@wrkirkwood) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Typical. No help and no sign of you resolving or answering my issues. Shame on you just pass the buck back to the customer. You are complete and utterly useless

  • DaviesCesca Cesca Davies (@DaviesCesca) reported

    @SkyUK would it be better to simply update your website to acknowledge there is an issue with your service instead of making your customers jump through hoops on your appalling website - Working from home is wonderful until there is no internet - FIX IT before I dont get paid

  • rapiidzszn rapiidz (@rapiidzszn) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam fix my wifi please guys :)

  • ryan_wasmuth Ryan Wasmuth (@ryan_wasmuth) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hey! Having internet troubles in NR31 area this morning didn’t know if you were aware as says no issues in my area when I check. Thanks

  • CB_1884 Caroline (@CB_1884) reported
