    Awful won’t last, another master stroke by @SkySports @JeffStelling wasted on that show to good for it time to jump ship before we all go to btsports or bbc1 shocking #gillettesoccersaturday

  • slapnuts316 Slappy (@slapnuts316) reported from Washington, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi can you explain why you have put my pensioner mother's bill up by £20 in a pandemic. Bad enough doing this but even worse in a pandemic when she can't have anyone round to visit. She relies on her tv.

  • sarahhunter25 sarah hunter (@sarahhunter25) reported from Durham, England

    @GothboyUK @SkyHelpTeam Its annoying as none of our smart home equipment works without the Internet and my chromecast doesn't work either. Its only been the last three nights.

  • peteroliver18 Peter Oliver (@peteroliver18) reported from Washington, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi the Internet connection is not working in the Washington area

  • iramshaw Ian (@iramshaw) reported from Sacriston, England

    @primevideosport That was rubbish laptop worked then kicked out, TV did not work, iphone could not cast errors, back on laptop message too many devices playing stream (I wish!!) so all in all thanks for the rubbish experience. Leave football to @SkySports or @btsportfootball

  • philwalton2 philsy (@philwalton2) reported from Gateshead, England

    @SkySports That's next June for ***** sake! If this **** is still about were well ******!!

  • gilhespy_james James Gilhespy (@gilhespy_james) reported from Seaham, England

    @ian_brown_jnr @SkySports He’s been dreadful never seen him play well. Be lucky to get 15m for him

  • GaryAPhilipson Gary Philipson (@GaryAPhilipson) reported from Sedgefield, England

    @SkyHelpTeam We do this on a daily basis! My wife is practically a sky engineer! Self taught. There’s no signal so it says. We rang to get help as all we normally do fails. You then pied us off on the phone for not being high priority

  • Chubfubbler Dean Lamb (@Chubfubbler) reported from Washington, England

    @SkySports That hand on the desk thing is irritating as **** like!

  • EthanOsafc Ethan Oneil (@EthanOsafc) reported from Durham, England

    @SkySports @EFL I only see champoinship matches are league 1 and league 2 not in the EFL remind me might as well just have it as the championship. Very poor @SkySports

  • gemma_donohue16 gemma donohue (@gemma_donohue16) reported from Dunston, England

    @SkyUK hi I need to order a new remote it says online to call so tried that and not getting through to anyone I think it’s my accent can you help? Thanks

  • Meldrum_10 Craig meldrum (@Meldrum_10) reported from Gateshead, England

    @SkySports Newcastle match on Main Event no crowd noise my kids have heard more bad language off me 🙀🙀🤔🤔 than they do sitting in Gallowgate end 🙈🙈

  • DoolanPd Paul Doolan (@DoolanPd) reported from Durham, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Tried to actually talk to someone. Just keep being re routed to a text message. Wish I never got Q in. Was fine before that.

  • wjc_14 Will (@wjc_14) reported from Sunderland, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Yes, they said they were calling about problems with my broadband. Thought he sounded dodgy, so I told him where to go.

  • GaryAPhilipson Gary Philipson (@GaryAPhilipson) reported from Sedgefield, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Can you send an engineer to find out why ( everyday) the main Q box loses signal? Seriously every day! It’s taken 3 hours to get this to reconnect. Surely that’s unacceptable ?

  • GaryAPhilipson Gary Philipson (@GaryAPhilipson) reported from Sedgefield, England

    Why won’t you fix my sky box @SkyHelpTeam we pay you a fortune a month and because we ain’t in a high risk group you won’t speak to us! Time and time again we lose signal. This isn’t good enough.

  • DarrenReeve7 Darren Reeve (@DarrenReeve7) reported from Sherburn Hill, England

    Are you having problems with UHD @SkySports ???

  • wjc_14 Will (@wjc_14) reported from Durham, England

    It’s a regular thing now that @SkyHelpTeam rip me off but I guarantee they’ll never get another penny off me. I’ve been paying full price for @SkySports whilst they’ve been giving it away for free. I don’t think so.

  • wal78 Wallace Mather (@wal78) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Is there a problem with Sky broadband in sunderland? Download speeds are horrific and the streaming is pathetic.

  • Nobbysafc Paul Noble (@Nobbysafc) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @SkyHelpTeam My bills have been creeping up over the past few months to almost £110 p/m. Are there any deals I can sign up to to bring them down?

  • BiasBlue194 Bias Blue (@BiasBlue194) reported

    @VillanShaw @billyhammer4eva @SkySports Exactly. There’s nothing wrong with a a diverse panel on sky sports but it would help if they weren’t all boring bastards.

  • F1_Chef Chef One (@F1_Chef) reported

    @jegan_1979 @SkyHelpTeam What’s so annoying is that we lived rurally down used @gigaclear and it’s literally hyper speed and so reliable, but they don’t supply the village we live in now sadly

  • Keir51986052 Keir (@Keir51986052) reported

  • jackpaulcook Jack Cook (@jackpaulcook) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam @benired Got this same issue myself. Does that mean I’ve got to change the settings on the TV itself every time there’s football on change it back after? TV is fine on every other Channel
