  • ben_cole90 juanjo (@ben_cole90) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @Slaughter23_ @Paulmccann91 @SkySports The 22 unbeaten run we were very lucky. Played terribly pretty much every week. The road to the europa league final was very flattering and we were awful in the final. Being good at europa league isn’t the level I want to be at. He’s a cup manager. Villarreal won’t be in Europe

    @SkyUK If the internet goes down I suppose that's the customer goosed?

  • glenharley71 Glen (@glenharley71) reported from East Calder, Scotland

    Sounded like @Carra23 said @ivantoney24 went down like a 'sack of studs' on @SkySports #brentfordvsbrighton due to Veltman standing on his toes...again 🤭🤭

  • Noosh1977 Anouska Curzon (@Noosh1977) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Is my @SkyUK broadband down because @CityFibre are tearing lumps out the pavement outside my house? Anyone else in Edinburgh having the same issues?

  • Noosh1977 Anouska Curzon (@Noosh1977) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @SkyHelpTeam We know there is an issue with connection to our property. The OpenReach engineer identified a fault 4m from our house, exactly where @CityFibre were digging.

  • K8WANE Kate Wane (@K8WANE) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Hi @SkyHelpTeam are you aware of any issues in the EH12 area of Edinburgh? Not been able to get a satellite signal yet today. I've followed the help guide online but not luck. Don't want to call out an engineer yet, just in case there's local issues. Thanks.

  • RobertGlen3 Robert Glen (@RobertGlen3) reported from Cockenzie, Scotland

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi folks, I still have a problem contacting a known number. If they call me, I receive it ok. It appears on 1471 but if I try to return the call (press 3) I get "this number doesn't exist". Thoughts?

  • iain4546 Dub (@iain4546) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    "The moon came down to earth one day to see up close what had been so far" (and in doing so caused tsunamis that wiped almost everyone from off the face of the planet). FFS @SkyUK what a completely nonsensical advert.

  • davidtaylor57 david taylor (@davidtaylor57) reported from Cockenzie, Scotland

    @SkyHelpTeam Not working!!!!

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

    @SkyHelpTeam Tried to pay overdue bill but saying card not valid, weird as managing to pay other bills with it? Used it before with you & CAN NOT AFFORD to be cut off ( weirdly says acc restricted but it's not tbh ) HELP as can't get a human on the phone #Disability

  • SanjieB Angie Ball (@SanjieB) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @SkyHelpTeam I’ve been trying to find information on how I upgrade and get the double data deal as a current customer. Your website has nothing about this for current customers. I tried to call your CS but they guy instead of just answering me was trying to force me to sign up.

  • JillScorer1 Jill Scorer (@JillScorer1) reported from Dalgety Bay, Scotland

    @lornagilmour_ @virginmedia @SkyUK How to make a complaint via phone. Call us on 150 from your Virgin Media landline or Virgin Mobile. Or 0345 454 1111* from any other phone. WONDER IF THIS WOULD WORK?

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

    @SianElin_PT @SkyUK Took me months to cancel, only when I started on here finally got any contact at all. Thankfully now sky free & my broadband is way faster for a fraction of their charges 🥳

    @chaunews @SkyHelpTeam SR5 having issues too 👍🏻

  • TalonPlaysYT 🖖 Talon 🖖 (@TalonPlaysYT) reported

    @TheWandererIsOP @SkyHelpTeam App reckons that it can't detect my hub, even though it's powered and fully connected. It's obviously their end that's the issue and unfortunately we, the end users, have to sit and wait until most likely tomorrow for a resolution.

  • davvyko Davvyko (@davvyko) reported

    @FoodNetwork_UK Is there not a HD version of your channel on @SkyUK? If not are there any plans to do so? Some really great content but relatively poor quality

  • Ronaldadio Northumbrian FPL King (@Ronaldadio) reported

    @SkyUK If u spent as much time fixing your internet problems as you do virtue signaling maybe the world would be a better place #skybroadband #shitservice

  • TheWandererIsOP The Wanderer (@TheWandererIsOP) reported

    @TalonPlaysYT @SkyHelpTeam It says there’s been no issues in our area or our box or anything, in fact it says there are no issues at all.

  • chaunews ChauNews (@chaunews) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Is Sky Broadband down in the NE5 area? Was working fine until a few mins ago and now can’t access anything. Just hangs when trying to visit websites. Rebooted the router. Still the same issue. The router says the broadband is connected but can’t access anything.

  • TalonPlaysYT 🖖 Talon 🖖 (@TalonPlaysYT) reported

    @Bill_Reddings @chaunews @SkyHelpTeam I've got the same issue mate. 2 green, Internet orange. App can't detect my hub apparently, even though its working perfectly.

  • CraigWilko85 Craig Wilkinson (@CraigWilko85) reported
