  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • 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.

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

    @SkyHelpTeam Nope. I had to hang up.

  • 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"

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

    @mandy_moooouk @SkyHelpTeam Down for me

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • phil_smith197 Phil Smith 🇬🇧🇺🇸🇨🇦🇮🇱 (@phil_smith197) reported from Richmond, England

    Barely worth watching #LeedsvsBrentford on the #redbutton the picture is that bad it actually hurts my eyes!!!come on @SkySports you can do better!!

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • 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

  • amanda30af Amanda Foster (@amanda30af) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I was promised compensation for loss off broadband, landline and TV for a week but the email your agent gave me just blocks any emails.. 20 years a loyal customer this is unacceptable. Do you have a legal department? Insurance department? Can you actually help??

  • Trexontour Tamsin Johnston Touring (@Trexontour) reported

    Since joining @SkyUK as my mobile provider I have had issues with sending emails on my phone, using Google maps as well as signal issues. Thinking it was a hardware issue, I purchased a new phone, yet I am still experiencing these issues.

  • Flossleberry Rachel / Flossleberry (@Flossleberry) reported

    @SkyUK Hi. I'd like to downgrade my TV package but your 'messaging' service is constantly unavailable and I find it hard to talk on the telephone due to anxiety. Can you action this any other way please?

  • HarrySpraggon9 Harry Spraggon (@HarrySpraggon9) reported

    @SkyFootball @SkySports Fella is such a poor footballer just try’s desperately to be a **** house to make up for his lack of talent

  • April_1970s Tracey (@April_1970s) reported

    @elbrun42 @SkyUK Yes, just today. A forum said it could be the rights to airing it that could be a problem. I had to buy from Prime for the last few episodes of S3. 😬😬

  • DaftMorph Ross McK (@DaftMorph) reported

    So the 2 free to air broadcasters can move on from their main commentators ITV @CliveTyldesley BBC Motty who stepped down but stayed on domestic football. But why on earth have @SkySports continued with Martin “and it’s live” Tyler, get him in the bin nowt in Clive or Motty

  • IanDickson1 ⭐ Ian The Rocker ⭐ (@IanDickson1) reported

    Phone calls and messages from my Wife to Sky Broadband/ Bt Open Reach Customer Services Nearly 4 months of trying to resolve compensation for a service that took from November 8th to January 11th to install and dug up my driveway which hasnt been put back. @SkyHelpTeam

  • elbrun42 Nick Brown (@elbrun42) reported

    @April_1970s S3 appears to have disappeared from @SkyUK 🤬🤬🤬. I’d just finished Ep.2 and then it was gone. S1, S2 and S4 still there. Have you had this problem?

  • erick_gad Gad (@erick_gad) reported
