  • Woodysimon1987 Woody (@Woodysimon1987) reported from Gateshead, England

    @JaseMac1986 @SkySports And this is why they're not arsed about letting their customers down. They're like Mike Ashley, they know they can do what they want and they'll be endorsed by enough paying customers to keep them going. Seriously, £50 a year and I can sort you out...

    @SkyHelpTeam please help, I’m having real trouble getting into my account online, it’s telling me my account is closed when obviously it’s not, I need to change my package and need to adjust my payment date

  • breenster breenster & 🐶 (@breenster) reported from Wylam, England

    @SkyHelpTeam I understand fluctuations, I’ve worked in telecoms for 20+ years, this is a cabinet (card) issue, it’s generating 20+ drop outs a day.... total loss of service, auto re boot etc.... it needs fixing or the transfer reversed without charges

  • helenolearyx Helen O'Leary (@helenolearyx) reported from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England

    @SkyHelpTeam please could you advise when your broadband will be up and running? It has been down in my area for the past 2 hours and I am trying to work from home. Have tried all troubleshooting options

  • breenster breenster & 🐶 (@breenster) reported from Wylam, England

    @dbrereton @SkyUK Yes... but (and this is the issue) I cannot get through to anyone because the internet is too unstable & dealing in from a mobile is an indefinite wait

  • helenolearyx Helen O'Leary (@helenolearyx) reported from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England

    @SkyHelpTeam second day my WiFi has stopped working, right in the middle of a work call again too. Please can you advise of the issue in NE21 area please.

  • SarahFallows82 Sarah (@SarahFallows82) reported from Ryton, England

    @SkyUK don’t like the new update for Sky Q. Slow and clunky.

  • S1mpson Nigel Simpson (@S1mpson) reported from Durham, England

    @BullmanJohn @SkySports @BBCSport Your right they have been poor but Sky are not helping, still better than watching cookery programs as that’s all that seems to be on nowadays

  • breenster breenster & 🐶 (@breenster) reported from Wylam, England

    @dbrereton @SkyUK BT... it’s the card in the cabinet which is the issue... Openreach have told me multiple times, no one wants to pay for a new one though they say

  • the_fatman61 Will Grigg scored yet? (@the_fatman61) reported from Washington, England

    @LisaBinney @SkyHelpTeam The price you pay when you’ve been a loyal customer for 30 years xx

  • chazza_TW Chanise'shirley' (@chazza_TW) reported from Chopwell, England

    @SkyHelpTeam is there anyway to actually talk to someone? My grandma was thinking about switching to sky but she’s extremely frustrated because she can’t find who to contact about switching I’ve been all over the internet trying to help but I just keep getting pointed to FAQ.

  • GamerBelsh Gamer Nights Prudhoe (@GamerBelsh) reported from Prudhoe, England
