    @SkyHelpTeam Hi, I’m having constant Broadband drops in Belfast. I don’t see any reported issues on your official page?

  • kevinoneill_93 Kevin O'Neill (@kevinoneill_93) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Skysports coverage is so bad

  • davyh_crfc David Hilditch (@davyh_crfc) reported from Carrickfergus, Northern Ireland

    @43mccauley @SkySports Nearly as bad as the motorway traffic noise at Seaview last night ....

  • kylebarron01 kyle barron (@kylebarron01) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @SkyUK unable to watch sky sports on #myskygo app but other channels are fine. Error code 17c. Seems to be a common problem with @ThreeUK users!!! According to sky help website. Any chance of sorting this out!!!!

  • jorisminne Joris (@jorisminne) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @SkyHelpTeam message says “no programmes are currently being broadcast on this channel”. All other apps, on demand, cinema, etc working. Can you help?

  • sbd233 Socially Distant Steve Returns (@sbd233) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @SkySports Shilton’s support of UKIP and xenophobic rants leave quite a sour taste.

  • michaelinbangor michael watterson (@michaelinbangor) reported from Bangor, Northern Ireland

    @Joshbxrber10 @SkySportsPL @SkySports Var was brought in to sort out close calls that need a better look. This decision shows that the people adjudicating over Var are incompetent and the FA must carry the blame. Fix it or get rid of it, it’s ruining football.

  • SeanyboMcGeown Sean Mc Geown (@SeanyboMcGeown) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @SkyHelpTeam Thank you for your reply, I have already tried to cancel and the call handler told me that it was not possible!

  • blamethepain Simon H. (@blamethepain) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @SkyHelpTeam hopefully by sending a message on here I’ll get some help. All other avenues are closed even for key workers it seems.

  • Kristian7Ross Kristian Ross (@Kristian7Ross) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Can anyone tell me why we still can’t get @RTEOne in HD on @SkyUK in NI, but @RTE2 is available in high def? Never thought it made any sense whatsoever. #TheHunger

  • blueskyvideoguy Peter Craven (@blueskyvideoguy) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @Counter_Digital @SkySports @premierleague 100% - you just need to look at my TV bill to know that I’ll subscribe to most stuff where there’s some value. This is just profiteering at its worst. #bigpicture #bigripoff

  • weeramborossa mac (@weeramborossa) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @SkySports He won’t care but what a horrible cannt

  • avalard Robert J.E. Simpson (@avalard) reported from Newtownards, Northern Ireland

    Mid stream and broadband goes down in BT23 @SkyHelpTeam. Run through all the checks and it appears to be a Sky fault... Will have to hope it's fixed by the morning now.

  • chrisleonmiller Chris (@chrisleonmiller) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Thanks for your quick response. I have tried that page and the £9 offer does not appear on it. If you go to the Contact Us options and then to Upgrade my Package you just go back to the same page without the offer! Others say they have had the same problem. Does this offer exist?

  • FabRab86 Rob (@FabRab86) reported

    @SkyUK upgraded frm essential broadband to superfast and was told line wld be switched within 7 days but e mail received says 12 days?We currently don’t get WiFi signal in every room and took the sky boost add on,should we be getting a boostbox as we already have latest router?

  • gentzwavy Gentzwavy (@gentzwavy) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam You resolve nothing. The worst thing is I had a minor issue that could have been resolved in less the 30 seconds. You choose to be ******* idiots. So I'm just switching to @virginmedia

  • lucy_bartram Lucy Bartram (@lucy_bartram) reported

    @SkyUK @SkyHelpTeam why have you charged and taken money off me for Sky TV till 23rd April when I cancelled your service at the start of March? I was assured no more payments would be taken at time of cancellation.

  • ICMRX5 endofmay♿️ 🐝💙 (@ICMRX5) reported

    @SkySports Sky’s been quiet for weeks about their beloved Liverpool they win one and now Twitter is full of the 🐂💩🐂💩🐂💩about a team that’s down the premiership table. BIAS TO LIVERPOOL IS SICKENING FROM SKY 20 TEAMS YET SKY REPORT ONLY ONE AND THATS WHEN THEY WIN 🤮🤮🤮

  • nickvann1987__ GoonerNick (@nickvann1987__) reported

    @SkySports They were great don’t get me wrong but we also played a part in giving them the confidence to get back to this level. But credit where it’s due they were still amazing last night but a small part of it was due to our awful show IMO 👍

  • GamingKav Kav 🎮 (@GamingKav) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Yes, there are no issues with the router or box, it’s not set to Eco Mode so it won’t be cutting out because of that. We switch off at the plug, reset it, do all the things the help page tells us to. It’s just the internet that goes and stays down for a couple hours.

  • Gemma_1806 Gemma Cholerton (@Gemma_1806) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I sat on hold for over an hour and gave up. You used to be able to contact Sky via Facebook messenger but that option no longer exists. I’ve been a customer for 19 years and am on the verge of moving elsewhere.

  • misikins Isi (@misikins) reported

    @Chronic_Jynx @SkyHelpTeam Yes it's such a pain! There's nothing wrong with the router I've done all their line tests etc comes back with no problems but nothing will connect to the WiFi for hours on end in the early hours!!!

  • RoystonWarren Royston (@RoystonWarren) reported

    @SkySports Arsenal were terrible more like....
