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

  • Normantweets Jamie Norman (@Normantweets) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    The good thing about today's 7-hour-and-counting @SkyHelpTeam outage is that it's the final nail in a wearying road, giving me the push to swap contract to @Plusnet, who appear to be offering better speeds at almost half the price...

  • Shaybee7 Sean Boyle (@Shaybee7) reported from Dalkeith, Scotland

    @SkyHelpTeam Broadband down in Midlothian any idea when it’ll be up running?

  • jo31070 Jo Parker #SCO 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@jo31070) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @SkyHelpTeam I need someone from the UK to call me! Sat in tears after almost an hour to someone who didn't even understand why I was calling! Some way to treat vulnerable customers 😡

  • Graemereaper Ricky Goold 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇪🇺 (@Graemereaper) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    No, Martin Tyler. He didn't "just about make it back for the game" because he actually *did* make it back. Where did this stupid "just about" thing come from? It's massively annoying. Stop it. #SkySports #NEWTOT

  • dittywilliam2 dittywilliam2 (@dittywilliam2) reported from Dalkeith, Scotland

    @SkySports In Scotland St Mirren and Celtic weren’t allowed to cancel the game even though St Mirren had only 4 first team playing the other 7+ reserves!! St Mirren played a brilliant game and managed a 0-0 draw!! I’ll never understand SPFL powers that he’s thinking or deduction!

  • chrisleonmiller Chris (@chrisleonmiller) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Thanks for your quick response. I have tried that page and the £9 offer does not appear on it. If you go to the Contact Us options and then to Upgrade my Package you just go back to the same page without the offer! Others say they have had the same problem. Does this offer exist?

  • FabRab86 Rob (@FabRab86) reported

    @SkyUK upgraded frm essential broadband to superfast and was told line wld be switched within 7 days but e mail received says 12 days?We currently don’t get WiFi signal in every room and took the sky boost add on,should we be getting a boostbox as we already have latest router?

  • gentzwavy Gentzwavy (@gentzwavy) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam You resolve nothing. The worst thing is I had a minor issue that could have been resolved in less the 30 seconds. You choose to be ******* idiots. So I'm just switching to @virginmedia

  • lucy_bartram Lucy Bartram (@lucy_bartram) reported

    @SkyUK @SkyHelpTeam why have you charged and taken money off me for Sky TV till 23rd April when I cancelled your service at the start of March? I was assured no more payments would be taken at time of cancellation.

  • ICMRX5 endofmay♿️ 🐝💙 (@ICMRX5) reported

    @SkySports Sky’s been quiet for weeks about their beloved Liverpool they win one and now Twitter is full of the 🐂💩🐂💩🐂💩about a team that’s down the premiership table. BIAS TO LIVERPOOL IS SICKENING FROM SKY 20 TEAMS YET SKY REPORT ONLY ONE AND THATS WHEN THEY WIN 🤮🤮🤮

  • nickvann1987__ GoonerNick (@nickvann1987__) reported

    @SkySports They were great don’t get me wrong but we also played a part in giving them the confidence to get back to this level. But credit where it’s due they were still amazing last night but a small part of it was due to our awful show IMO 👍

  • GamingKav Kav 🎮 (@GamingKav) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Yes, there are no issues with the router or box, it’s not set to Eco Mode so it won’t be cutting out because of that. We switch off at the plug, reset it, do all the things the help page tells us to. It’s just the internet that goes and stays down for a couple hours.

  • Gemma_1806 Gemma Cholerton (@Gemma_1806) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I sat on hold for over an hour and gave up. You used to be able to contact Sky via Facebook messenger but that option no longer exists. I’ve been a customer for 19 years and am on the verge of moving elsewhere.

  • misikins Isi (@misikins) reported

    @Chronic_Jynx @SkyHelpTeam Yes it's such a pain! There's nothing wrong with the router I've done all their line tests etc comes back with no problems but nothing will connect to the WiFi for hours on end in the early hours!!!

  • RoystonWarren Royston (@RoystonWarren) reported

    @SkySports Arsenal were terrible more like....
