  • LaneHusband1 Lane Husband (@LaneHusband1) reported from Blyth, England

    @RadiationSteve @SkySports @NUFC This is the problem with Sky, they're obsessed over MU & the so-called top 6 it's laughable. Should be a sub for all your club's games, not their pick of games. MNF's the worst. 45 mins of MU/Liv, then 15 mins of who's playing. Guarantee it'll be all about them this Mon, though.

  • 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

  • RICKERSRG Rickers (@RICKERSRG) reported from South Shields, England

    What's happened to the SkySports boxing coverage? Presentation is nearly as bad as BT Sport now. Lazy ******* aren't even at the fight. Probably being petty towards Hearn and Joshua seen as its his last fight on SkySports

  • geemiller71 Gareth Miller (@geemiller71) reported from South Shields, England

    What a lovely woman at @SkyHelpTeam #valueteam on the phone today . Very pleasant and kept me as a customer . Give that woman a pay rise 👍 📺

  • LeeJarraHackle Lee Hughes (@LeeJarraHackle) reported from South Shields, England

    @SkySports work with the Mp and help small businesses #lies #greed Shame on you all

  • MurthaOfficial Stephen ‘Murf’ Murtha ©️ (@MurthaOfficial) reported from Newburn, England

    @SkyHelpTeam can you tell me why I have the same sim deals as the rest of my family, we have the same phones, yet when I’m out, their phones will load app data and web data no problem, but mine keeps buffering. No matter what it is, FB, Twitter, App Store, Web. Help please.

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

    @SkyHelpTeam My sky vip NEVER works click on it on the sky app then click on an option and it always comes up “unable to generate URL”

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

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

  • TrevorRidley Trid (@TrevorRidley) reported from Sunderland, England

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

  • stevewallwork Steve Wallwork (@stevewallwork) reported from Annfield Plain, England

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

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

    @SkyHelpTeam I’ve managed to sort the problem out

  • MrJamesCCC Mr James 📚 MCCT (@MrJamesCCC) reported from Wallsend, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Thanks, but none of the steps have worked as it drops out for a minute or two and then comes back on, usually before any diagnostic has been completed. It’s now also affecting my Sky Q box’s connectivity. Seems like a number of others are having the same problem.

  • Alan_G_Shaw Alan_G_Shaw (@Alan_G_Shaw) reported from Washington, England

    @SkyHelpTeam morning, Sky Go not working on either Fire tablet. Tried to remove device however that doesn't seem to be available. Any ideas?

  • scotty8461 Bob Scott (@scotty8461) reported from Shiremoor, England

    @SkyHelpTeam good evening I am a skyq VIP customer I think I have mistakenly signed up to an HD TRIAL how can I cancel please

  • tomcowey Tommy (@tomcowey) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @stevewallwork @SkySports I deliberately refer to NUFC as United when talking to people at work down south. Think we should reclaim the word on principle (also correct any NUFC fan which all Man U “United”) its doing the Lord’s work.

  • jasonhebron Jase ⚫️⚪️ ♿️ (@jasonhebron) reported from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England

    @DailyMirror Another low for @Carra23 that no doubt @SkySports will sweep under the carpet as they did with his spitting incident… #noshame

  • SteveCoyne6 LymphomaLad (@SteveCoyne6) reported from Longbenton, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi..My Sky Talk landline is down due to a problem in my area. Have you got any idea when will this be resolved?

  • Golden_Grahame 🔴⚪🔴Grahame Smith🔴⚪🔴 (@Golden_Grahame) reported from Sunderland, England

    @safcftm2015 @SkySports Surely they arrange these things in full before the match day? I'm not totally sure why it never went ahead on sky, any ideas?

  • ChrisNUFC4 Chris (@ChrisNUFC4) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @SkyHelpTeam @sky DESPERATELY need to improve their coverage in Newcastle City centre especially on a match day. I have to use a secondary EE mobile as a hotspot if I want to use my phone and I’m not talking in the stadium either!! #SkyMobile #Network

  • TrevorRidley Trid (@TrevorRidley) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @Designer_Ross @SkyHelpTeam @virginmedia Yeah that’s the issue I’ve come across . Slow download speeds but always reported at just above the payment threshold. It’s got worse recently

    @SkySportsPL @SkySports Var isn’t the problem technology doesn’t lie it’s the clowns using it that keep making a mess of it.

  • great09o ' (@great09o) reported

  • FreddieBond007 Freddie Bond (@FreddieBond007) reported

    @SkySportsPL @SkySports Awful decision. Absolute shambles.

  • GwenRB Gwen Bramwell (@GwenRB) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi, I don't want to go through all of this again as we've done it numerous times over the phone with Sky and have had an Openreach engineer. I'm interested to know what is happening as this seems to be a wide service issue affecting many users, without resolution in sight

  • flashback_1991 flashback 91 (@flashback_1991) reported

    @SkySportsPL @SkySports VAR is awful.

  • HiyaLuke Luke (@HiyaLuke) reported
