  • 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

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

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

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • 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

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

    @SkyHelpTeam Nope. I had to hang up.

  • 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!

  • 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

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • 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?

  • 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?

    @SkySportsLyall What absolute nonsense, how the hell did you get a job reporting on sport, but then I see it’s SkySports and realise the low bar and crap regularly spouted by that organisation. Give your head a wobble.

  • Stopfordian73 Chris (@Stopfordian73) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Why are you charging me a £10 admin fee for renewing my broadband contract? Should you be paying me £10 for the poor service? It’s not like you had to dork to me on the phone, you sent an email. Nice how you treat loyal customers.

  • mackyd78 Darren (@mackyd78) reported

    @spurssglobal @SkySports His style of football is bloody awful, he could work 24 hours a day and be best friends with everyone, still doesn't change the brand of football he'd play

  • Yozu_Sama 🔞 Yozuwu - Vtuber (@Yozu_Sama) reported

    @SkyUK Your internet is ****.

  • DaveMoffman Dave Moffatt (@DaveMoffman) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam So it IS misleading advertising then as there’s nowhere on the banner page or subsequent linked page that states this is a new customer only offer. That’s RUBBISH

  • purplemel75 Melanie Hodges (@purplemel75) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I can’t get anyone to help me after they’ve taken payment twice again

  • Stevecolinray Steve Ray (@Stevecolinray) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi there, the link above didn’t help, feels like it just goes round in circles. The only thing I have yet to try is switching off the Q box. Failing that I will have to switch else where. Paying for a service I can’t use is pointless. It was fine about a month ago.

  • mufc90 Darren90 (@mufc90) reported

    @SuhailChowdhary Just more sensationalist crap from skysports scouse

  • reubs_87 Reubs (@reubs_87) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam such a difficult process to UPGRADE to SkyStream. Marketed as all inclusive, BUT addons needed for basic funciton > fastforward > pause. I'm a HD+ customer for 9 years, no loyalty or discount compared to a new customer. To top it off £20 charge to have it sent out!
