    @aberfoodblog @fLip_uk @ioauk @BBCCasualty @thepengineer @BBC @BBC6Music @BBCiPlayer @SkyUK @NetflixUK @SalfordAcoustic @S3ASpatialAudio Hence why the clean audio recommendations in ETSI and other broadcast standards were largely ineffective in solving the problem. Object based audio has advantages that research like this needs to explore if we are to gain any benefit. Also it really wasn't an expensive project!

  • smashers_81 Hannah (@smashers_81) reported from Manchester, England

    Can someone @SkyHelpTeam ask the hamster to pedal faster - my god the internet is beyond crap today! Just what you need when you’ve got a super busy WFH day! It’s beyond slow!

  • sheila_riley Sheila Riley (@sheila_riley) reported from Bury, England

    @AndyhHolt @TheJackDearden Jack, is there any way this can be flagged up to SkySports. Something needs to be done and very quickly and you may be the man to help Bury.

  • BondJMBond Jennifer Bond (@BondJMBond) reported from Accrington, England

    Absolutely shocking service from @SkyUK @SkyHelpTeam this evening, they can’t call me back and can’t send emails between departments, i thought we were In 2019 not 1940 #newcustomer #shockingservice #awfulcustomerservice #cantwaittocancel

  • laurathompson81 Laura Pendlebury (@laurathompson81) reported from Bolton, England

    @SkyHelpTeam It’s taken 7 hours to download Cars 2 from our purchased archive. My little guy isn’t v happy. I’ve tried deleting things from our planner but doesn’t help it taking so long. We can only watch films with the play triangle on , so annoying when we pay so much. 😩

  • eindhoven63 Peter Broadbent (@eindhoven63) reported from Manchester, England

    @SkyHelpTeam so you lock my account. I cant now use Sky Go. I can't login to my account. All because an email account I don't use has been hacked. And to unlock it I have to ring YOU and wait in a 45min queue. The first automated q asked is What's My Password!! NOT answering THAT

    Problems with Tv 📺 @SkyUK again , it's raining . Problems watching a broken up @ITVChase #theChase 👤 #Frustrated

  • joalhe1997 Joel Heritage (@joalhe1997) reported from Manchester, England

    @hazcraig1 @C4Sport @Channel4 @SkySports partly admittedly because it's not their thing, but also because many have never had any exposure to cricket. I got into cricket because of the 2005 Ashes (the last FTA matches), don't think I would have otherwise. It inspired me to pick up a bat and ball and go out and play...

  • jakemac97 Jake McLaughlin (@jakemac97) reported from Wigan, England

    @jackrimmi @SkySports @btsport Still shit should be on television. Better than Leeds and hull

  • lou89 Sarah 💕 (@lou89) reported from Manchester, England

    @SkyHelpTeam since we had a fault with our broadband, the speed of it is absolutely shocking 😡 can’t even stream skygo without it been slow and jumpy. Sort it out!

  • mowfie April Mowforth (@mowfie) reported from Preston, England

    @SkyHelpTeam sick of these problems with recording on sky Q. It was showing on the app as recording but wasn’t recording on the sky box. Really wish I hadn’t upgraded to this it’s been nothing but trouble!

  • Vikmarshall17 Victoria Marshall (@Vikmarshall17) reported from Burnley, England

    Seriously thinking of telling @SkyUK to come and remove Sky Q and put my wired boxes back in - nothing but hassle - can never watch 1 full programme on the mini boxes without problems!!!! @SkyHelpTeam 🤬😡🤯

  • manoftherainbow Musing Mind (@manoftherainbow) reported from Bolton, England

  • jakemac97 Jake McLaughlin (@jakemac97) reported from Wigan, England

    Shows how shit @SkySports has gone when they don’t show one of the biggest derby games in rugby league on television. #WiganvsSaints no wonder @btsport is taking over

    @c_terrier87 @SkySports @SkySportsNews I told a monkey to f*** off. A story I've never told you cos I didn't realise you'd also been.

  • stevemed not Geoff Hurst (@stevemed) reported

    @SkySportsPL @SkySports Never a penalty! The keeper collected the ball before DCA got there. Still , smaller clubs need a break sometimes. ⚒⚒⚒⚒COYI

  • FrockDestroyed Mrs. Robin Koch (@FrockDestroyed) reported

    @virginmedia your wifi service is increasingly shambolic. And you have the cheek to send an email saying you’ve just upgraded my connection?? Switching to @SkyUK unless you sort it out sharpish. I’m not paying hundreds of pounds a month for this.

  • pjmccluskey1 Peter kes McCluskey (@pjmccluskey1) reported

    @Turkish1882 @SkySports Him and mane slightest touch then they are throwing themselfs to ground, if that was Harry Kane they would have a tv beside him after match asking him to explain himself. Both Liverpool and man united are the 2 worst teams at doing it. Need to start handing out red cards for it.

  • Jonathan1982 Jonathan Darbyshire (@Jonathan1982) reported

    @BrindleKeith @SkySports Thought I was the only one. Awful commentator.

  • ZenergyMusic Zenergy Music (@ZenergyMusic) reported

    @SkySports needs to sort out the sound on its channels, the adverts are so loud I have to turn my TV down, but the actual football is so quiet o have to have the volume on max..

  • percybiz TIMOTHY P (@percybiz) reported

    That first half at Craven Cottage is the worst game of football I've seen for a long time! Truly dreadful!! @SkySports #FULSHU #Fulham #SheffieldUnited

  • greigcardwell Greig Cardwell (@greigcardwell) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I have a question about adding something to my package, I just want a definitive answer and not to be on the phone making calls. Can someone here help me?

  • colossalintent Colossus (@colossalintent) reported

    @skinnywinger @SkySports **** off! Everton were diving more than an Olympic Diving team! Cheating bastards..

  • Blonde_Nutter Chelle (@Blonde_Nutter) reported
