@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?

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

@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.

@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!

@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?

@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"

@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

@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.

@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?

@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.

@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

@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!

@SkyHelpTeam I’d swap my SkyQ back to this straight away. SkyQ is awful, TV guide is a joke now. One set of recordings for the whole family. Is it possible to go back to Sky HD as I preferred it?

So @SkyHelpTeam one of your Customer Service Agents convinced my Mother, because you have charged her for a 4 and 5 hour calls, when she stated she had not been on the phone for 4 and 5 hours, stated "She had been charged for a phone off the hook" for 4 or 5 hours ? Really ?

@SkyHelpTeam by contrast, family members on BT with a similar issue were provided with additional boosters immediately that solved the problem. Several months down the line with Sky, you don't seem to be able to solve the issue as swiftly.
