  • blueskyvideoguy Peter Craven (@blueskyvideoguy) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @Counter_Digital @SkySports @premierleague 100% - you just need to look at my TV bill to know that I’ll subscribe to most stuff where there’s some value. This is just profiteering at its worst. #bigpicture #bigripoff

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

  • CTB1983 Thomas (@CTB1983) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam When will the issues with your contact centre routing be resolved? It keeps cutting me off and there are many similar recent comments on here from other customers experiencing the same.

  • DonnieMclennan Donnie McLennan (@DonnieMclennan) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam This is a joke every time I get told to hang on line to speak to a adviser you cut me off 🤬

  • Midfella Daniel Thompson (@Midfella) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Can you arrange for somebody to call me instead? I've been on hold for an hour and have to leave. Don't want to call back later and face another hour of queuing. Unacceptable service from such a huge company.

  • DavidSmithAVFC David Smith (@DavidSmithAVFC) reported

    @SkySports Sure they’re a nation that oppress women and stone gay people to death but putting a tea towel on your head is the real issue here

  • JohnCon06 JC (@JohnCon06) reported

    @bestcanton7 @SkySports Feel for him, I genuinly hope that club get relegated, the expectations of a deluded fan base following a team who have never won anything in my lifetime. Even Wigan, Birmingham, Leicester, Saints, Coventry, have won cups, + prob others

  • DeniseHockin Denise Hockin (@DeniseHockin) reported

    @SkyUK need 2 spk 2 an actual person . automated call keeps cutting off. Ongoing broadband issue - can only book open reach to visit but the are not the right ones - needs to be sky engineer. Please contact me. Customer of over 20 years - not for much longer if this carries on

  • jonathan201983 jonathan (@jonathan201983) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Internet down, red LOS. Have tried calling all afternoon. Get so far and then the automated service ends the call. Very frustrating, any chance of talking to a human?

  • Flagren Steve Tidmarsh (@Flagren) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I dont have an account. I want to buy broadband but I need to speak to someone but your automated phone tree is broken.

  • macaronimince eviandetox (@macaronimince) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hello. Please can you help as I am completely exasperated trying to contact you through telephone. Over 15 times I’ve tried navigating through the automated voice thing and keep getting cut off. Why do you make it so difficult to get in touch?
