    @SkyHelpTeam Nothing more to add? Just as useless as your call centre! Below par service despite collecting 100s each month for years - wonderful.

    @SkyHelpTeam Thanks. I thought as much & did hang up as I had a meeting to log onto anyway. Is there any way to block such calls?

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

    Andrew (@a_scotty1892) reported from Annfield Plain, England

    Abysmal service from @SkyHelpTeam 6weeks from signing up still no broad band over 15hrs spent on phone, 6days wasted waiting for openreach engineer not to turn up. Waited over a week for sky to call me to progress bridge case and still nothing... #sky #skybroadband

  • TemporaryCarpet
    Jason the Furloughed 🇪🇺 (@TemporaryCarpet) reported from Gateshead, England

    @SkyHelpTeam I think your issues are wider reaching than the Rotherham area, I am in Gateshead and have no Internet and therefore reduced functionality of my Sky Q box.

    @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.

    @cxdi55 @skytv @SkyHelpTeam So I used to be a retentions advisor for another supplier. As others have advised, place an order with another company, even if you have no intention of leaving. Sky retentions will contact you, as at that point, they can treat you as a new customer and give you those deals.

  • debs_robinson
    Debs Robinson (@debs_robinson) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I love when u are close to the end of contract and everything keeps going into muppet mode and not working. You have to ask the question is it a ruse to claim better products and charge u more??????? Maybe it’s time for a change !!!!!

  • ntlufc
    maiden86 (@ntlufc) reported

    @SkySports . another old man Aussie coming across for a final big pay deal at hull fc for 1 season It never ends. Cherry-evans is 38-39 years old stopping a possible British player developing in to his position It’s not huge news it’s sad news for young British league players

    Derek (@Derek36796760) reported

    @cxdi55 @skytv @SkyHelpTeam I had exactly the same problem, retention team couldn’t do anything yet when I left sky told me they could have done for £25 rather than £44! I’d already signed up with Vodafone

    DS♟️ (@Carefree_WDS) reported

    @cxdi55 @skytv @SkyHelpTeam I have this same problem. Thankfully, Hyperoptic installed in my postcode and have been using them for for free (first 12months contract deal) and will start paying for it when the Sky contract terminates. Cant wait to send that final call/email to tell them to **** off forever
