Anyone got any ideas on how to get it working? @SkyHelpTeam

joanne platt (@joplatt81) reported from Appley Bridge, EnglandWhat better way to anger your customers than cut them off and tell the service is now closed! When they’ve been on hold, it’s closes at 7pm but yet it’s 6.59pm! Nice work @SkyUK
-
Graham Healey (@healey_faafili) reported from Salford, England@wattothfc It’s an attempt from @SkySports to attract the younger viewers. Only issue is that those kids who know who he is can’t afford the £80+ per month so not sure how/why he is appearing on the screen. At last #LUFC fans have it right “Sky TV, is ******* ****”

-
Scott Elliott (@ScottElliott10) reported@pitpasschris @sky If this July increase is related to phone/broadband you’re likely on old copper services. If so expect a further increase in October @SkyHelpTeam should be explaining it’s due to Openreach switching off the copper network & hiking prices to double them compared to start of 2026
-
GinaG (@GGinaIvy) reportedHey @SkyHelpTeam why is gigafast &31 a month for new customers yet £53 for existing? Doesn’t seem right that I’ve just upgraded my internet as an existing customer to find out I’ve been ripped off because I’m not new. Is loyalty not rewarded?!

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.

Randomrants (@unrandomrants) reported@FCK_USA @SkySports embarrassing that you dunno what you are talking about. Only the top 100 male players live a comfortable life and the rest live paycheck to paycheck because the majority of money goes to the organisers. That’s the problem, duh. Educate yourself with the issue in question first
-
Josh Bassett (@theJoshBassett) reported@justcfc @SkyKaveh @SkySports They believed they won it. Not understanding the Manager was the driving force.... They gave themselves raises. And told the manager No when he needed A CB. Absolute idiot. Abramovich understood how important the managers role was.
