  • HeidiRoper Heidi J Roper (@HeidiRoper) reported from Standish, England

    @SkyHelpTeam You make it very easy to upgrade your services online but impossible to downgrade without having to call. Your customer service is disgusting. @BBCWatchdog Has anyone else complained about the Sky services. 45 minute call waiting times.

  • Izhar_Latif #Problem (@Izhar_Latif) reported from Blackburn, England

    Uno @GNev2 is pissed off when when he says live on @SkySports ‘sort your own shit out’! @ManUtd

  • LittleLydia14 Lydia Titterington (@LittleLydia14) reported from Manchester, England

    @SkyUK why does my sky Q mini box keep loosing connection with the downstairs main box... I’ve been having issues for the last couple of days

  • Pani_kzm pantea kazemi (@Pani_kzm) reported from Manchester, England

    @SkyUK Your early termination charges are ridiculous!! £120 for cancelling a year contract of £23 per month is just not acceptable! Sky is basically steeling money off people who are going through hard time in life whilst showing absolutely no empathy! Never again!!

  • TheSlopedGarden Shanna (@TheSlopedGarden) reported from Manchester, England

    @appleton_scott @SkyHelpTeam Having the same issue and won’t be using the chat because it says I’d be the 99+ in queue!

  • noddingdonkeys Pete (@noddingdonkeys) reported from Mellor, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Not really...some support on getting my phone delivered would be great...

  • RICKERSRG R I C K E R S (@RICKERSRG) reported from Blackburn, England

    Wowww! Internet goes down just as I'm about to stream go to ring Sky (which usually had a department to help 24h) but no I cant do anything till tomorrow now! Great service @SkyHelpTeam @SkyUK

  • mancboy1 Chris Wilmore (@mancboy1) reported from Manchester, England

    @SkySports Can you please sort out your broadcast of the game. Sound keeps jumping and the resolution keeps changing! I don't pay for rubbish service.

  • wrxmanpaul Paul (@wrxmanpaul) reported from Salford, England

    @Marlon_MTK @Oleg__74 @SkySports @SkySportsPL @premierleague @stonewalluk So here lies the real issue. For you, homophobia isn’t a problem because for you it’s racism that’s a problem because you’re on the receiving end of that. Try to use that to understand how victims of racism are the same as victims of homophobia.

  • Stanleyiain Iain Stanley (@Stanleyiain) reported from Upholland, England

    @SkySportsNews @SkySports Martin Atkinson is the worst ref in premiership and should be retired so incentive what he has just done to Son

  • kingoftheshed Paul Parkin (@kingoftheshed) reported from Salford, England

    Still don’t get it, a satellite signal travels to a spot somewhere in space travels through god knows what but the minutes there’s a slight wind and rain in the north west of England it can’t get through that so I can watch the darts for £90 a month. @SkyHelpTeam

  • Aaron____TM ً (@Aaron____TM) reported from Manchester, England

    @CHACHIECOCO @NorthmcrAth @SkySportsPL @SkySports Not a foul should be stronger and be dealing with it no problem. That’s exactly how he used to be.

  • loismarissa_ lois stuart. (@loismarissa_) reported from Manchester, England

    Why is our sky broadband not working though 😩🙃 @SkyHelpTeam

  • HangtimeAmy 💫Amy💫 (@HangtimeAmy) reported from Urmston, England

    @SkyUK I haven’t had any phone signal now for over a week, tried your ‘guides’ with no joy. Also tried to contact you on the website and Facebook with no reply. Went to a help desk in the local shopping center to be told to ‘ring a number’when that’s my problem, I have no service

  • RICKERSRG R I C K E R S (@RICKERSRG) reported from Blackburn, England

    At midnight and the help closes at 11.30pm! So I cant even get it resolved until the morning you horrible *******! I'm going to play hell tomorrow watch! @SkyUK @SkyHelpTeam

  • mothball69 Paul MCFC Johnston (@mothball69) reported from Salford, England

    @biffo60 @SkySports Good man, I will go down the same route! 👍

  • mothball69 Paul MCFC Johnston (@mothball69) reported from Salford, England

    @murfthegreek @SkySports Nothing at all mate, but unless they are playing Celtic I couldn't give a ****! 👍 😂

  • KTaaze Karl Taylor (@KTaaze) reported from Bury, England

    @SkySportsPL @SkySports He was directly involved in that incident and maybe if Gomes didn’t break his ankle he wouldn’t have been red carded... it was the right decision having reviewed how bad the injury was, Gomes will be out for quite a while so it’s only fair that he’s held accountable.

  • NiallBurgo_MCFC Burgoo (@NiallBurgo_MCFC) reported from Walkden, England

    Bt and Sky are a joke , sky q doesnt work properly due to connectivity problems , so i upgrade my wifi and still the same problem , joke and a waste of time👎 @SkyUK @SkyHelpTeam

  • michelle2570 Michelle #OfficialChesterDay 💔💜💔 (@michelle2570) reported from Walkden, England

    @chrisstyles44 @SkyHelpTeam @SkyUK Oh, btw, you know my Sky Digital bill jumped from £75.99 to £89 to £97 !!!!! For the crap that keeps being repeated on all Sky Channels, it's not worth the money! Absolutely NOT!! 😠😠

    @SkyHelpTeam I'm trying to link my sky q account to discovery+ but, as I started the activation a couple of days ago and didn't have my account info to hand, it now won't let me sign up to it. Any ideas how I can fix this please?

  • LisaBri71571016 Lisa Britt (@LisaBri71571016) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Its been about 4 hours now. You are telling us nothing. How about letting us know what the problem is instead of sending us to your app which says there are no issues.

    @SkyHelpTeam Yes it is. It was resolved on the day (a problem with the electricity supply to the fibre cabinet) but I learnt this from neighbours after I had booked the visit. Two days later still can’t cancel!
