    @SkyHelpTeam Did that, was told to hang up and that I would receive an SMS with further online instructions. No SMS arrived. How can we resolve this?

  • Stirling061 Ian Stirling (@Stirling061) reported from Salford, England

    @skysports and @btsport must end their collusion with Premier League clubs to rip off fans by charging £15 to view games during a pandemic. This is a very poor way to treat fans and their subscribers who already pay them large amounts. Play fair with fans.

  • PlasticHead55 Brian Clarke (@PlasticHead55) reported from Blackburn, England

    @CFCRaja @SkySports And talking about Blackburn, it's the most divided town in Britain primarily because of bloody religion. Wish folk would come to their damn senses and dump the prehistoric nonsense.

    @SkyHelpTeam As mentioned a couple of times before, I only have one socket installed, so moving it is not an option. My question is when I have a good connection, which is most of the time, will this new superfast broadband be noticeable upgrade to the service?
