  • Cover4Caravans Richard Burgess (@Cover4Caravans) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    Funny how if you want to remove a package you have to ring @SkyUK and you can’t do it online. That’s creating a barrier for a customer when it could easily be done online.

  • gammorreon Gammorreon Kennel (@gammorreon) reported from Althorne, England

    @SkyHelpTeam we moved into our new build in March and have no phone line we have tried contacting sky many times but still no luck. I have tried to cancel our previous subscription and get a new one set up and tried moving our old one over but we are not getting anywhere.

  • JohnnyRowlands Johnny Rowland (@JohnnyRowlands) reported from Brentwood, England

    @SkyUK your website is 💩 error 288 for the last 20 minutes and I can’t call. Brilliant service 👍🏻

  • paulparker81 Paul Parker (@paulparker81) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia experiencing the worst customer service I have ever had. Been a customer for 10+ years but not after today @SkyUK will be gaining another customer instead

  • matthardy91 Matt Hardy (@matthardy91) reported from Gillingham, England

  • shaney9ss ⚒Shane WHU Slaven #GSBOUT ⚒ (@shaney9ss) reported from Basildon, England

    Don't care if we get relegated. Health before wealth. **** off @premierleague and **** off @SkySports. You couldn't give a shit about the players. All you care about is money.

  • sue_adams_ Sue Adams (@sue_adams_) reported from Higham, England

    @SkyHelpTeam i got a new sky tv service in December as part of your refer a friend promotion. The person who referred me received his reward I think in February but no sign of mine. I understand you are only answering emergencies during covid times, but how long should I wait???

  • laney74_ Stewart Lane (@laney74_) reported from Gravesend, England

    @SkyHelpTeam not happy that I paid £12.99 for the rise of skywalker on April 13 only for it to be available on sky movies 3 weeks later, I’ve been with sky for over 21 years and expect better treatment to a loyal customer

  • MartinEcott1 Madasahatter29 (@MartinEcott1) reported from Great Baddow, England

    @JeffStelling Soccer Saturday will never be the same if u go and neither will Saturday afternoons when I'm not at Kenilworth Road. I'd switch to BT sport and seriously consider my @SkySports subscription

  • ldj71 LJ (@ldj71) reported from Brentwood, England

    @BricklayersN17 @SkySports Yer I had that problem I went to 402 so lost the fake fan noise but couldn’t for the life of me find a way of turning on the Spurs commentary, it was somehow stuck on Man U.

  • robchilds Rob Childs (@robchilds) reported from Gillingham, England

  • Mat_Thompson Mat Thompson (@Mat_Thompson) reported from Rochester, England

    @SkyUK really need to work out what VIP stands for in there so called Sky VIP area. I really don’t feel like a 13 year old customer that’s for sure. Terrible service. @SkyHelpTeam
