Sky Issues Reports Near Horwich, England

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Horwich and nearby locations:

  • rkjo007 Joe Kenyon (@rkjo007) reported from Blackburn, England

    @SkyHelpTeam is the device down at bb2 I keep getting intermittent interruptions since last Thursday

  • BenGShirley Ben Shirley (@BenGShirley) reported from Atherton, England

    @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!

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

    Absolutely shocking service from @SkyUK 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • basnettdavid1 ⚂ David ⚽️ Bazzy 🏉 Basnett 🐶 (@basnettdavid1) reported from Salford, England

  • foster_coralie Coralie Foster (@foster_coralie) reported from Bolton, England

    @SkyHelpTeam my 78 year old mum who is deaf & does everything by e-mail is part of this huge locked out of account issue. Can't use Sign in helper & Yahoo have said this is a big Sky issue - what can you do to sort asap. I can see on here is a big problem and phone no one hr wait

  • paultheblue2 Paul (@paultheblue2) reported from Manchester, England

    @SkySports moving the camera to opposite side of Kenilworth Road doesn’t disguise the fact it is one of the biggest shit holes I have been to.

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

    @SkyHelpTeam You misunderstand. I've done all that and have a ticket raised. But your first line support continually put me thru to the 'Sky Apps Team' where I wait in the queue but eventually get hung up on. I go round and round and get nowhere.

  • tomoennion7 Thomas Ennion (@tomoennion7) reported from Hindley, England

    @SkySports biggest game in @SuperLeague and it’s not live #SLStHWig #awful #brainless #lostviewers #shocking

  • 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

  • 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. 😩

  • NCD0284 ⭐️⭐️Nicola⭐️⭐️ (@NCD0284) reported from Bolton, England

    Outstanding customer service from @SkyHelpTeam Report a GDPR breach to them by twitter because I can’t get through on the phone & their response is we can’t help with this, you’ll have to call. Great to know you take your legal obligations to protect customer data seriously!

  • 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

  • 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 🤬😡🤯

  • Michael47227608 Michael Flannery (@Michael47227608) reported from Haslingden, England

    @1LiamWare @buryfcofficial @OfficialBWFC @SkySports Now,now! Plymouth have had their problems in the past!!

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

Sky Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • bigstevehb Steve H-B (@bigstevehb) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I am tweeting because your operators say despite 30+ people in a geographic location telling you there is a problem they can't escalate it to Open Reach because they are not allowed because your system shows no network fault... Use your bloody common sense!!! #badservice

  • timcbroughton Tim Broughton (@timcbroughton) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam @Mister_Latty I have the same problem & have also reported it to sky - I live in Settle too - BD24. I was told it’s my home network, but it clearly isn’t as there are lots of comments on Social media from others with the same issue today! Is it too hard to treat this as a common problem??

  • mattsimmo_ mattsimmo (@mattsimmo_) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam hello, 4G been down most of the day in YO postcode. Any info on this please? Can’t see you’ve tweeted about it. Having to use 3G to send this 😮.

  • celine4evauk Debbie Featherbe (@celine4evauk) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam This doesn't help me. Stupidly Sky doesn't allow me to log in without verifying myself, and you can't use a sky email address. Which is all I have.

  • JamesWThrelfall James Threlfall (@JamesWThrelfall) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam my parents are self-isolating and have now been without internet since Saturday. They have received no help, no prognosis and have now burned through their mobile data allowances to remain in contact with the outside world. Any chance of some help?

  • bigstevehb Steve H-B (@bigstevehb) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Are you actually reading what I've written... There are now more than 40 of us with problems... What can possibly have made 40 routers break all at once in the same area... It's a bloody network not an on premise issue! #badservice #badcustomerservice

  • dave2801epic David ⭐⭐ (@dave2801epic) reported

    @SkySports @thehundred Nobody wants to watch this **** so what are you going to do? Stick it on 3 or more channels?

  • Farmer_Boycie Sir Johnny OBE (@Farmer_Boycie) reported

    @TerryTransplant @APSnevets @SkySports ******* terrible mate

  • sparklewalker77 Sarah Walker (@sparklewalker77) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I’d love to but I don’t have time to sit on hold for an hour! Playing fast and loose with the name Sky ‘help’ team aren’t you!

  • jayde1983 John Davies (@jayde1983) reported

    @SkyUK @SkyHelpTeam satellite signal gone down for my boxes? Is there an issue?
