Hey @SkyHelpTeam any chance you can stop slowing down my broadband? I know what the trick it, to make me upgrade to a 'faster service'. What I'll do instead is find a better provider.

@EE - Absolute nightmare trying to get through to cancel my broadband due to price increase of nearly £20 due to contract coming to an end. No way am I paying that extra increase, especially in such unprecedented times. Off to @SkyHelpTeam I go for my broadband #BetterDeal

Really trash #skybroadband again. My kids have been complaining this evening as they've been dropped out of xbox games mid-game due to crap wifi. It's not the speed or service we should expect & we still haven't received the booster promised! #poorcustomerservice @SkyHelpTeam

@_drane @SkyUK If you use your hotspot try balancing your phone near an open window It might help the phone signal get in if you’ve got coated or treated glass

@100Climbs @ibiza74pete1 Brilliant! Snag is, though I threaten to do this, the kids know I need to keep it on in order to run my business! Does anyone know if it's possible to divide the wifi signal so I can keep one channel on (password protected) but switch off the other? I use Sky. @SkyHelpTeam

@SkyHelpTeam do you offer any boosters for WiFi? Im@just 4 meters away from the router in another room and it’s so slow

@SkyHelpTeam You need to employ more people. Everytime i have called over the previous 20 years with a problem i wait far too long. Customer retentions and sales answer far quicker! #sky

@tlc_uk @SkyUk As you are aware we are in a Pandemic and never was a time more important then tv. You chose to end #90DaysFiance on the 15th Feb when it's due to be aired the 17th Feb? Why would you do that? It's evil!

Thought I solved that @virginmedia problem. But of course I was wrong. Let's see how long this call takes. (20mins so far no answer). Can they beat their record of 1hr 30 with me. While I wait I'll call #Sky @SkyUK 2 sort out her phone & broadband 4 my mum. That won't take long.

@SkyHelpTeam @karenbest2 I’ve got the same problem. You are not asked to hang up, you just get cut off. This has happened several times to me and I've been unable to get in touch for over a week. So fed up, I now want to cancel my contract.
