  • MARKGLEAVE8892 MARK GLEAVE (@MARKGLEAVE8892) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @SkyUK I have recently joined sky mobile but this morning in Newcastle from about 6am I had no service whatsoever. At the time I was attempting to get home after my metro journey was cancelled. In these days of COVID I carry no money and rely on my phone for payment

  • mikecharlston Mike Charlston (@mikecharlston) reported from Witton-le-Wear, England

    @SkyHelpTeam That it would still be affected by the trees. Currently the line of sight in its current location hits the very centre / bulk of the tree. The location I suggested I think at worst would clip some lower branches. I think if mounted low enough it would not hit the tree at all.

  • smudge79 Danielle Smith 💙 (@smudge79) reported from Marley Hill, England

    @SkyHelpTeam I have box sets with my package. The issue seems to be that it won’t let me download in SD. Yet have just tried downloading an episode of Will and Grace and it worked fine, in addition to the other episode of Chicago Med I downloaded from season 6. Seems to be a season 5 issue?

  • AgingBull73 Andrew Simpson (@AgingBull73) reported from Bearpark, England

    @talkSPORT Ok over 1000 fans surveyed, but where was survey taken and who did they support? Great unbiased survey. Source wasn't @SkySports was it?

  • Chris_p18 Chris Parkin (@Chris_p18) reported from Gateshead, England

    @TristynClark4 @SkySports I havent said you did say that. I'm saying imagine top top players being happy working for him. But I'm not the idiot getting bought into believing the utter rubbish that the big sam managerial merrygoround creates.

  • cycletourleader CycleTourLeader (@cycletourleader) reported from Witton Gilbert, England

    @SkySports Total disrespect for #NHS & other #frontlineworkers coming out with a stupid excuse like that. #Footballers don’t know what running on empty really is.

  • VictoriaBarry82 Victoria barry (@VictoriaBarry82) reported from Sunderland, England

    @SkyHelpTeam We’ve had a call today claiming to be needing to check our broadband for issues we’ve had and they had permission from sky head office. The callers English was very poor & the background was noisy. Does this sound like something which is real or a scam?

  • Jules_86_x Julia 💕 (@Jules_86_x) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam my sky is going all funny and some channels are saying no satalite signal. Been like this since yesterday, pls advise

  • IanPorton Ianp .... 1 9 7 3 (@IanPorton) reported

    @didopich @SkySports What's the point of testing? This never ends. It appears that people want to stay scared forever. For a virus that poses no significant risk to 99.9% of people

  • TonyPepper19 Tony Pepper (@TonyPepper19) reported

    @SkySports *******. Are you lot still banging on about that? Flash in the pan. They’re just another Leicester.

  • MPhillips199_2 V (@MPhillips199_2) reported

    @MickDC81 @SimFez87 @SkySports Facts unfortunately will go over your head. I believe there is a virus going round. I do not believe the reaction to it is rational. When you look at all data on govt and ONS websites it’s clear to see it’s been blown out of proportion. Wake ******** up!

  • Ben020990 Ben (@Ben020990) reported

    @Coys1979 @SkySportsPL Another slow news day for Skysports so bring out Kane story to get the clicks. Sad really isn’t it.

  • SneakyScoffer Sneakyscoffer (@SneakyScoffer) reported

    @rickyj555 @RSwanson_UK @SkySports Well if you had a degree in economics then you'd have known all that already instead of spouting how they'd cut down but survive on TV money... When that literally wouldn't happen

  • Yamzi0 YΛMZI (@Yamzi0) reported

    The @SkyUK engineer that just came out to fix my broadband was so lovely!!!

  • DrMattStroh Matthew Stroh (@DrMattStroh) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Whatever... Fellow villagers had their engineer visit cancelled by text at short notice and with no explanation. Others were told there was an area wide issue. I have an engineer booked for the morning. I wonder whether they will come? How does the guaranteed service refund work?

  • _eilishmary13 eilish🌸 (@_eilishmary13) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Thanks, just checked and it says there is an outage in the area. Any idea when it will be back up and running?
