  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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!

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

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

  • 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"

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

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

    @mandy_moooouk @SkyHelpTeam Down for me

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

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

  • 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?

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

    @SkyHelpTeam Nope. I had to hang up.

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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?

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • 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

  • bfatchett Brendan Fatchett (@bfatchett) reported from Horbury, England

    @the_boy_ayres @WBA @SkySports Yep. It’s so infuriating when you’ve made weekend plans around games. Plus Harry is at school and getting down to Watford on a Friday evening and back is virtually impossible 😡😡

  • OfficialPuge Official Puge (@OfficialPuge) reported

    @Neil_JD @SkyUK they tell you that if you want to replace your router . that they had to charge you for it ... its useless after i cancel with them . and they dont want it back . im only renting the box from you

  • UK_Wingnut WingnutUK (@UK_Wingnut) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam of you continue to throttle my internet speeds because I refuse to pay £5 for “boost” I will report you to Trading Standards. I had no Wi-Fi problems when paying for boost, but from the day I stopped paying it’s been problem after problem

  • Harmandeepcom Harmandeep Singh (@Harmandeepcom) reported

    @SkyUK I am so frustrated with broadband service. I am without internet since 24th Dec. Zero support from customer support. They booked appointment with @OpenreachHelp twice but they didn't turn up. On last call with sky, customer support member didn't let me speak to his manager

  • leonsopinion Leon (@leonsopinion) reported

    @Scrumpydave66 @stevenffc123 @FulHambone All of that, plus the fact he’s never played in the FA Cup before. Perhaps he wants an appearance in it before #SkySports and the #PremierLeague completely destroy the world famous competition

  • ionkid81 Itai Tione Wasu #registertovoteZW 🇿🇼 (@ionkid81) reported

    @SkyUK Been waiting since November black Friday promotion. No activation of broadband as yet. Poor service.

  • 11Ryders morning glory (@11Ryders) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Virgin never has this problem

  • EmmaVin38197244 Emma Vincent (@EmmaVin38197244) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam can you help I've switched of the function for parental controls but it still asks me for my pin number on restricted programs

  • yeatesy70 carl yeates (@yeatesy70) reported

    @SkyUK The broadband service is awful, supposed to be average 59mbs im getting 900kbs-10mbs awful,i even pay for boost. rang so many times

  • titiangirl68 Karyn (@titiangirl68) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Good morning William, if you see my first tweet. I did call the sales team who were quite rude and condescending because I asked if there were any deals for being a previous customer. I would have thought Sky wanted customers to return?
