    @SkyUK can you please sort out the terrible pixelated and jumpy f1 pre season testing. I havnt been able to watch any of it on the tv or the sky go app. You've just announced your prices are going up (again) sort it out!!

  • timjacko09 timjacko09 (@timjacko09) reported from Ballygowan, Northern Ireland

    @SkyHelpTeam It is coming up that all is fine, but I regularly get little periods where signal is sketchy and in particular rooms, it is also not giving me option of booking an engineer.

  • DavidPMet David Phelan (@DavidPMet) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland

    @SkyHelpTeam for the second month in a row there's an issue with the Sky Sports app. £5.99 per month and I keep getting told I don't have a subscription. Paying for a service I'm not receiving 👎🏼

  • SeamusMcEvoy3 Seamus McEvoy (@SeamusMcEvoy3) reported from Dromore, Northern Ireland

  • UberGeekFanboy Fanboy (@UberGeekFanboy) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @Cara_Erin @DisneyPlusUK @SkyHelpTeam If someone in @SkyUK has told you you need to get it through them they are just trying to make a sale. This will work like Netflix etc u just download the app on skybox, iPad, TV, Xbox etc and login

  • PhilDesignsNI Phil Designs (@PhilDesignsNI) reported from Dundonald, Northern Ireland

    @SkyHelpTeam broadband isn’t working in Belfast BT16 area, looking at Twitter seems to be a problem across the country.

  • RonnieMcD424uk Ronnie McDowell 🔑 (@RonnieMcD424uk) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Disgrace that you can’t get through to @SkyUK @SkyHelpTeam. Services switched off when I can’t get out to pay the bill and when you phone to talk you get zero help!!

  • BatchyCOYG Ryan Batchelor (@BatchyCOYG) reported from Dundonald, Northern Ireland

    @ToonFan14 @SkySports @PeteGravesTV BT Sports is just as bad. We should be thanking him 🙄

  • timjacko09 timjacko09 (@timjacko09) reported from Ballygowan, Northern Ireland

    @SkyHelpTeam Oh back to silence. Well bye bye sky and never again and I will be telling anyone I know not to ever consider going with ye.

  • giftofthegabcw Gift Of The Gab Web Design (@giftofthegabcw) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam @kategarraway @skytv Please can I be on the list for help? I’ve spent hours on the phone being fobbed off and had x2 open reach guys sent out even though the first proved no issue their end. It’s affecting my work badly.

  • ToomerRyan Ryan Toomer (@ToomerRyan) reported

    @SkySports More reports of how bad Arsenal are. More people on the bandwagon. What a surprise sky hates Arsenal

  • KSD_1993 Kyle Davison (@KSD_1993) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam That’s the issue it keeps just directing me to the online page for upgrades... can’t find a phone number anywhere

  • giftofthegabcw Gift Of The Gab Web Design (@giftofthegabcw) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam @kategarraway @skytv There are forums on FB all saying exactly the same thing - the Q box. Your mobile app consistently shows a warning or poor connection - and you’ve not charged me which is suspicious! 20 plus years we’ve been with you.

  • giftofthegabcw Gift Of The Gab Web Design (@giftofthegabcw) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam continued.. For any more hours. I do not want to constantly check my app to see the warning icon and I’m not really interested in a refund each month. I would like the service I signed up for so I can work and my children can use their tech and watch tv!

  • seadogfan seadogfan (@seadogfan) reported

    @liz_blogg @SkyHelpTeam Not just Sky, seems like a whole area outage.

  • JRBurge4 J Burge (@JRBurge4) reported

    @SkySports Football Show today is awful.....the lack of knowledge of players and where they play positionally is shocking.....

  • kategilloolyx Kate Gillooly (@kategilloolyx) reported

    @SkyUK took an extra huge amount of money out my account just before Xmas exactly what I needed. Saying it’s because I haven’t returned equipment when you haven’t even sent me boxes!! Absolutely shocking, no help on the phone whatsoever and now I’m overdrawn. Merry f*cking Xmas

  • ResearcherLucy ResearcherLucy (@ResearcherLucy) reported

    @TomLawwrence @NOWTV That's awful, hope they get it sorted ASAP. @SkyUK have always been so incredible with us! I'll see if I can refer you over to them instead?
