    @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

  • WelshBish Tim Bishop (@WelshBish) reported from Maesycwmmer, Wales

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

  • GerJDav Gerald J Davies (@GerJDav) reported from Caerphilly, Wales

    @_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

  • kev_Cymru Kevin D 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🍺🏒🏳️‍🌈 (@kev_Cymru) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ChristianFish3 @SkyHelpTeam Mine is down. In city centre

  • alunT Alun Thomas (@alunT) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @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

  • kev_Cymru Kevin D 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🍺🏒🏳️‍🌈 (@kev_Cymru) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @SarahBell85 @SkyHelpTeam It’s down in Cardiff too so unlikely your device

  • gingio Shane Andrews MBE 💙 (@gingio) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @SkyHelpTeam hi, my sky Q and my other box that mirrors it hasn’t been working for 5 hours now. Is there an issue in Cardiff?

  • kev_Cymru Kevin D 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🍺🏒🏳️‍🌈 (@kev_Cymru) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @SkyHelpTeam broadband is down, is there an outage in the Cardiff area ? #cardiff #skybroadband

  • daviddoodlebug 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Doodlebug BSc 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@daviddoodlebug) reported from Llantrisant, Wales

    @SkyHelpTeam Openreach say I has fttp. Your system says no. Why? I want to pay you more!!! Several emails and calls and not resolved. Last one to my wife was rude + condescending. Not happy. Due for renewal soon. If you want my business get it sorted.

  • gareth_thmpsn Gareth Thompson (@gareth_thmpsn) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @SkyHelpTeam guys do you have a telephone number where I can speak to someone? Your automated service just keeps going around in a circle & repeating its self.

  • UKEmpLawyer James Moss (@UKEmpLawyer) reported from Newport, Wales

    @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

  • jamestuck James (@jamestuck) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @SkyHelpTeam This is no help at all. I need to actually speak to someone but you don’t allow me. Ultimately the process to return my old device was not followed by Sky so never happened.

  • faT_Taf_213 LeaveMyArseAlona (@faT_Taf_213) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @DonVito29985036 @SkySportsPL @SkySports They can’t win anything with a captain that has never lifted a single trophy in his career.Better off going with Hendo as captain,at least he knows what is needed to win trophies. Kane just wants individual glory.That is exactly why he never squared the ball to Sterling at the WC

  • Steffan_McMahon Steffan McMahon (@Steffan_McMahon) reported from Bargoed, Wales

    @EE - Absolute nightmare trying to get through to cancel my broadband due to price increase of nearly £20 due to end of promotional contract coming to an end. No way am I paying that extra increase off to @SkyHelpTeam I go for my broadband

  • faT_Taf_213 LeaveMyArseAlona (@faT_Taf_213) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @DonVito29985036 @SkySportsPL @SkySports He did not square that ball to Sterling and he has never won a single trophy in his life. He will not win his first trophy with England. He’s not a winner & those are the facts . Come back when he’s actually won something of significance.

  • DaioGoddard David Goddard 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@DaioGoddard) reported from Treharris, Wales

    @SkySports Why are people hiring social media companies and wtf is wrong with saying ‘are you ready’ ffs

  • DaioGoddard David Goddard 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@DaioGoddard) reported from Treharris, Wales

    @Burgy_Tog @SkySports If it was the foot sweep that put him down then he should be able to beat the count. Always takes the easy way out Molina

  • srp0000 Shaun Porter (@srp0000) reported from Newport, Wales

    Wtf is wrong with the sound @SkySports #MUNEVE ?

  • jamestuck James (@jamestuck) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @SkyHelpTeam apparently you’ve cancelled my mobile phone swap because I didn’t send my old phone back in the packaging you never sent me. It sure what more I can do because getting in touch with you is like trying to unravel the mystery of how the universe started. #helpme
