    @SkyHelpTeam I think your issues are wider reaching than the Rotherham area, I am in Gateshead and have no Internet and therefore reduced functionality of my Sky Q box.

    Whoever is doing the sound on the @SkySportsF1 Testing: Story So Far program needs to sort the levels out, seriously. Two days now of very Testing audio.... Lip syncing out too, mics not working. Unless it's a work experiencer, then I'm afraid they're fired! #SkyF1 @SkyHelpTeam

    A second point about the @F1 #VirtualGP. @LandoNorris really needs to change his Internet service provider. @SkyUK are great for broadband. (Hopefully sky get a sale out of this and I get a £50 gift voucher whatever it is these days) #Landobot

    @SkyHelpTeam trying to order Sky TV and broadband and you’re telling me I’m already a customer, I am not? Please help!

  • CodeIsBroken CiB 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇪🇺 😷 (@CodeIsBroken) reported

    Well, installation of @SkyUK Ultrafast has been a shambles this morning. @WeAreOpenreach rocked up to install the line and can't get a cable down the pipe. No idea when another engineer might turn up to resolve. Time wasted making space for them. Very frustrated!

  • eltel89 Terry Felipe (@eltel89) reported

    @SkySports Plantar faciitis is horrible! Had that last year and kept me out of playing for ages!

  • mclellanjesse Jesse Mclellan (@mclellanjesse) reported

    @footballdaily @SkySports talking garbage again

  • Cranky84 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@Cranky84) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam But it doesn't say why its gone up. You've broken the contract. This isn't an inflation increase, it's a price increase whilst we're in contract.

  • LouRycroft1 Lou Rycroft (@LouRycroft1) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I’ve tried checking sky app, tried online and even rung! No one seems to be able to confirm my engineer visit, or give me a rough time (as promised when ordering)….. please help!

  • xsreynolds Sarah (@xsreynolds) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam SE3 and our Internet has been dropping out all morning. Are there known issues? The website and My Sky App says there are no problems.

  • iamthemunro Iain Munro (@iamthemunro) reported

    @giles75 @SkyHelpTeam I’ve reported it and an engineer will be on hand to fix it in “upto” 48 hours. Helpful
