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

    @SkyHelpTeam I’m trying to download Season 5 of Chicago Med from Sky Witness on demand but it’s telling me I have to upgrade my package. I have never had an issue downloading series on demand before and ep1 of S6 downloaded without issue. Pls help?

  • 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.

  • TheatreTots_NE

    @EXPATTERNS1 @SkyHelpTeam I am having the same problem...is it an outage in the area?

    @theawayfans Got to wait until tomorrow thanks to #skysports stupid KO time as well!

    @Designer_Ross @SkyHelpTeam My contract ends next month and I’m done with them. It’s been terrible

    Can someone @SkySports tell me why we are never referred to as Newcastle United any more. It’s our name, in case you forgot.

  • stephen26273
    stephen trotter (@stephen26273) reported from Washington, England

    Why do @SkySports always get boring **** has-been footballers in the studio? That villa player who always sticks up for bruce , forgot his name , so irrelevant #nufc @NUFC

  • tracycyprus
    Tracy Maudsley (@tracycyprus) reported from Birtley, England

    @SkyHelpTeam An approximate 45 minute wait is not acceptable to cancel a part of my package when the customer should be able to cancel with one click online. Am guessing it’s because your call handler has a script to follow to try to persuade us not to drop sports pack (2/2)

  • farrenciaran
    Ciarán (@farrenciaran) reported from Whickham, England

    Thanks @SkyHelpTeam for wasting an hour of my life for nothing. I was called months back asking how happy I was with my services and if I want to and insurance for any of my smart devices. I said no - on the call I made the agent aware that my Internet signal is shocking.

  • a_scotty1892
    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

  • Jamiefozz92
    James 🇬🇧 (@Jamiefozz92) reported from Dunston, England

    I have no idea who this speed kid is. But can you imagine in the early 2000’s giving a tit like that air time. He’d be shunned. Never seen again. It’s utterly embarrassing that @SkyFootball are giving him airtime. Even after insulting Man United greats!! #skysports

    @SkyUK Sky is crap. Same adverts over and over and over zzzzź.

    @SkyHelpTeam hi i have a query on my mobile bill for this month. One of the devices I'm being charged double, I phoned last week but nothing has changed. Can you help? Thanks. Sarah

  • the_real_ivo
    David Ivo Iveson (@the_real_ivo) reported from Bishop Auckland, England

    @SkyUK have put their prices up, both for broadband and TV mid contract, can I cancel because they have done this, or am I stuck with them until the end of the contract?

  • S1mpson
    Nigel Simpson (@S1mpson) reported from Durham, England

    @BullmanJohn @SkySports @BBCSport Your right they have been poor but Sky are not helping, still better than watching cookery programs as that’s all that seems to be on nowadays

  • 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.

  • EnterpriseMeryl
    Meryl Levington (@EnterpriseMeryl) reported from Durham, England

    @SkyUK our broadband is useless - we are paying extra but aren’t even getting basic level signal into the house. There is no support number - what are we supposed to di to get someone look at this?

  • 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 ?

  • MattKeena
    🏳️‍🌈Matt Keena🏳️‍🌈 (@MattKeena) reported from East Rainton, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Yes all the devices that are connected to it are having issues

    Kate (@Holliebear80) reported

    Never had an issue with Sky but this last few weeks they’re testing my patience. @SkyHelpTeam wanna tell me why you think you’re charging £41 for early mobile termination when the number that was cancelled belonged to my Dad …. Who died 6 weeks ago and you were told this!!!

  • SamCosham
    Sam (@SamCosham) reported

    @jammierooroo @SkyUK The same company who demanded they speak to the account holder to cancel a subscription.. yet he was 5ft under in a box in lots of pieces, they didnt seem to grasp that fact.. 😬

  • kinlochleven7
    Winston Smith (@kinlochleven7) reported

    @jammierooroo @SkyUK Amazing in our age of technology that cancelling Sky packages cannot be done online. I can add packages online but cannot cancel them. Speaks volumes

  • bazedmondsonuk
    Baz Edmondson (@bazedmondsonuk) reported

    @SkySports Meanwhile, what is it now, 130+ charges? It's a joke, as is anyone associated with that filth of a club. Imagine actually choosing to support them! The lack of a moral compass blows my mind. Insert delusional "cry more", "salty" etc etc, low IQ 'in defence of', comments below 👇🏼

  • rustyshaft12
    Den (@rustyshaft12) reported

    @jammierooroo @SkyUK Put a complaint in and ask for the call to be reviewed. You have to tell them you raising a complaint or otherwise they will ignore it

  • GGCiaobella
    GGciaobella (@GGCiaobella) reported

    @jammierooroo @SkyUK yes same as my elderly neighbour because he doesn’t have an email address they charge him a further 30£ extra a month and still can’t get his new sky box and recording woking properly .. rang back and no one could help him solve this .. disgusting service for the elderly 😡

  • TheFluffster1
    TheFluffster1 (@TheFluffster1) reported

    @jammierooroo @SkyUK Do take a look at the distance selling regulations under the Consumer Rights Act if needs be. There's a right to cancel within 14 days. Sky should be fully aware of this.

  • mbsmith1980
    Mark Smith (@mbsmith1980) reported

    @Chels_HQ @SkySports Itd cost spreading, they know what thry are doing there. The problem is after that.

  • ThomasODuffy
    Thomas O'Duffy (@ThomasODuffy) reported

    @jammierooroo @SkyUK @EE UK charges a 99p/minute "connection fee" on mobile if you call a 0845 number, which includes many forms of customer service, on top of the 1 to 7p cost of calling an 0845 number. There is absolutely no justification for such predatory and greedy pricing which disproportionately older citizens or people on lower income.

    @albionroar @AndyMitten3 @SkySports Just unbelievable the bias. Never mentioned us at all in any clip I’ve seen!
