Thomas Cahill (@tomcahill7) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@SkyHelpTeam So that's a no then. What's the use of a 65" Glass Tv and being told to buy and watch on my phone. Sky Glass is totally 💩 I'll be on the phone to cancel as it was mis-sold to me.

Arty Russell (@letsstopthespin) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@longdistblue @RedAndWhiteAlex @SkySports Shame very few if you like going to the ground to support the team, eh? How much more embarrassment can be heaped on to your club? Once the authorities grow a pair and start to enforce their own rules, the trophies will stop. Who are you going to support, then?

John V. (@Majormajor86) reported from Belfast, Northern IrelandI hate VAR. It slows down football, kills the flow and gives decisions that no one cares about. All I want to know is if the all crossed the line: nothing else. @SkySports #SkySports #liverpoolvsarsenal @GaryLineker @talkSPORT @FIFAcom @UEFA

Jackson Eagleson (@Oradaman) reported from Jordanstown, Northern Ireland@SkyHelpTeam I can't see my exact package details but have sent details of the package we took, you look it up and stop dancing around the problem. I have confirmed we have Box sets in our package, Devels appears in Box sets but we can't watch it. I think you just need to cancel and refund.

Messi_the_best (@Messi_the_best) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland@SkyHelpTeam @JoeAgnew10 Hi I expect Sky to show goodwill to all their customers who were inconvenienced today. My wife & I are both working remotely and there was very poor communication over this issue as well as impacting on the work we need to do #skybroadband

Glenn Bradley (@BradleyGJ) reported from Belfast, Northern IrelandHad to telephone @SkyHelpTeam @skytv to sort contract details out. Put through to a call centre, passed x3 to finally reach a lady who’s spoken English was not conversational & difficult. On the phone almost 1 hour that cost £24! All a poor example of customer service. #bewarned

Andrew Williamson (@AndrewPaul70) reported from Bangor, Northern Ireland@SkySports Not a Liverpool fan I admit, but thought the best one today was Henderson going down with an obvious injury, no contact, and the ref awards a free kick!?! They do not appear to understand the game, and suspect few of them have played it

She was unable to hear the person on the phone to which he violently cursed down the phone. The number was 02032890219. Just to make you aware.

Aaron Convey (@AaronConvey1) reportedBefore SkySports came in to show games behind a paywall RTE showed 31 games live out approximately 55-50 games. In 2014, Sky Sports took over TV3 coverage of between 8-10 exclusive games and increased it to 20 games a season while having 14 exclusive games behind a paywall. In 2022, SkySports either lost the rights or didn’t go back in to renew their rights. This opened the opportunity for RTE to take over the rights but they didn’t. instead GAAGO took them over. In the two years of GAAGo, they showed 38 games exclusively. That’s 7 more games than RTE showed on Free to Air television. In 2025, GAAGO was rebranded to GAA+. And again they went on to show 2 more exclusive games while RTE continued to show 31 games on Free to Air television. Now in 2026, RTE have upped their games to 35 shown on free to air TV while GAA+ is now showing 40 exclusive games. Since they ‘paywall’ has been introduced when sky sports started showing GAA games RTE have stagnated in increasing their coverage of the games. RTE have gone from showing roughly 50% of championship games in 2013 to roughly 29% in 2026. RTE in 2013 showing 31 out of 60 games. RTE in 2026 showing 35 out of approx 120. The issue lies within RTE not GAA+. If it wasn’t for GAA+ we wouldn’t see around 35% of all the championship games. The only argument anyone can have is if your county is repeatedly on GAA+. Other than that we are so lucky that we are in a generation that we have so much additional access to view games.
