Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Bolton and nearby locations:

  • BenGShirley Ben Shirley (@BenGShirley) reported from Atherton, England

    @aberfoodblog @fLip_uk @ioauk @BBCCasualty @thepengineer @BBC @BBC6Music @BBCiPlayer @SkyUK @NetflixUK @SalfordAcoustic @S3ASpatialAudio Hence why the clean audio recommendations in ETSI and other broadcast standards were largely ineffective in solving the problem. Object based audio has advantages that research like this needs to explore if we are to gain any benefit. Also it really wasn't an expensive project!

  • eindhoven63 Peter Broadbent (@eindhoven63) reported from Manchester, England

    @SkyHelpTeam You misunderstand. I've done all that and have a ticket raised. But your first line support continually put me thru to the 'Sky Apps Team' where I wait in the queue but eventually get hung up on. I go round and round and get nowhere.

  • laurathompson81 Laura Pendlebury (@laurathompson81) reported from Bolton, England

    @SkyHelpTeam It’s taken 7 hours to download Cars 2 from our purchased archive. My little guy isn’t v happy. I’ve tried deleting things from our planner but doesn’t help it taking so long. We can only watch films with the play triangle on , so annoying when we pay so much. 😩

  • jakemac97 Jake McLaughlin (@jakemac97) reported from Wigan, England

    @jackrimmi @SkySports @btsport Still shit should be on television. Better than Leeds and hull

  • foster_coralie Coralie Foster (@foster_coralie) reported from Bolton, England

    @SkyHelpTeam my 78 year old mum who is deaf & does everything by e-mail is part of this huge locked out of account issue. Can't use Sign in helper & Yahoo have said this is a big Sky issue - what can you do to sort asap. I can see on here is a big problem and phone no one hr wait

  • BondJMBond Jennifer Bond (@BondJMBond) reported from Accrington, England

    Absolutely shocking service from @SkyUK @SkyHelpTeam this evening, they can’t call me back and can’t send emails between departments, i thought we were In 2019 not 1940 #newcustomer #shockingservice #awfulcustomerservice #cantwaittocancel

  • joalhe1997 Joel Heritage (@joalhe1997) reported from Manchester, England

    @hazcraig1 @C4Sport @Channel4 @SkySports partly admittedly because it's not their thing, but also because many have never had any exposure to cricket. I got into cricket because of the 2005 Ashes (the last FTA matches), don't think I would have otherwise. It inspired me to pick up a bat and ball and go out and play...

  • jakemac97 Jake McLaughlin (@jakemac97) reported from Wigan, England

    Shows how shit @SkySports has gone when they don’t show one of the biggest derby games in rugby league on television. #WiganvsSaints no wonder @btsport is taking over

  • nickahenry Nick Henry (@nickahenry) reported from Middleton, England

    Received a text advising of a data breach by @SkyHelpTeam and to ring a number to unlock the account. Sounds dodgy..checked the web page and sure enough confirmation of the breach. Dialled the number and now convinced it is genuinely Sky as there is a 30 minute wait! #service

  • SeriousWill William J. Holstead (@SeriousWill) reported from Manchester, England

    @LucasCSmith @SkyUK Yeah mine went down

  • eindhoven63 Peter Broadbent (@eindhoven63) reported from Manchester, England

    @SkyHelpTeam so you lock my account. I cant now use Sky Go. I can't login to my account. All because an email account I don't use has been hacked. And to unlock it I have to ring YOU and wait in a 45min queue. The first automated q asked is What's My Password!! NOT answering THAT

  • sheila_riley Sheila Riley (@sheila_riley) reported from Bury, England

    @AndyhHolt @TheJackDearden Jack, is there any way this can be flagged up to SkySports. Something needs to be done and very quickly and you may be the man to help Bury.

  • paultheblue2 Paul (@paultheblue2) reported from Manchester, England

    @SkySports moving the camera to opposite side of Kenilworth Road doesn’t disguise the fact it is one of the biggest shit holes I have been to.

  • NCD0284 ⭐️⭐️Nicola⭐️⭐️ (@NCD0284) reported from Bolton, England

    Outstanding customer service from @SkyHelpTeam Report a GDPR breach to them by twitter because I can’t get through on the phone & their response is we can’t help with this, you’ll have to call. Great to know you take your legal obligations to protect customer data seriously!

  • tomoennion7 Thomas Ennion (@tomoennion7) reported from Hindley, England

    @SkySports biggest game in @SuperLeague and it’s not live #SLStHWig #awful #brainless #lostviewers #shocking

  • rkjo007 Joe Kenyon (@rkjo007) reported from Blackburn, England

    @SkyHelpTeam is the device down at bb2 I keep getting intermittent interruptions since last Thursday

  • Vikmarshall17 Victoria Marshall (@Vikmarshall17) reported from Burnley, England

    Seriously thinking of telling @SkyUK to come and remove Sky Q and put my wired boxes back in - nothing but hassle - can never watch 1 full programme on the mini boxes without problems!!!! @SkyHelpTeam 🤬😡🤯

  • Dodeaitken Dode (@Dodeaitken) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam is there an issue with the paramount+ app on sky Q? I keep getting error messages and am unable to watch anything on it, the app works fine through iPad etc

  • ClairHTweets Clair H (@ClairHTweets) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Nope zero deals. Our packages were removed and the cost was higher! Maybe we got through to an agent in training. He was happy for us to cancel so we just did that. Would have been stupid to accept his offer of less for more!

  • RosemaryRosie55 Rosemary Garside (@RosemaryRosie55) reported

    Sky emailed us with an offer that is due to expire today 31st August. However, we're told that because customer services are unable to see that particular offer - we can't have it ???? Not impressed at all!!! @SkyHelpTeam @SkyUK

  • realdavidessex David (@realdavidessex) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi, the wall plate protecting the cables into my house has fallen off. Could you send someone to repair this as the hole is now exposed and is vulnerable to water damage?

  • athopkinson Andrew Hopkinson (@athopkinson) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Sky sim keeps saying it's not registered on network. Been like this for 3 days. Can't make or receive calls/texts. Help

  • djdlicious Heather Murdoch (@djdlicious) reported

    Appalling wait time for an @SkyHelpTeam agent online. Been waiting since 10:46 am and it’s now almost 12:20. Will someone ever be available to help!?

  • JeanSmith551952 Jean Smith. #EnoughIsEnough #JoinAUnion (@JeanSmith551952) reported

    Just had SKY VIP rewards offers. None are any use to us apart from ebook. Tried to download but told no codes are available and to try later. It was the same last Sunday. Why make an offer which cannot be redeemed. Been a @SkyUK customer for nearly 30 years not a happy bunny. 😤

  • nerd_kind Moosh (@nerd_kind) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hiya, yes we're still having the same issue and was due to start work half an hour ago 😬😭

  • japangeordie Japan Geordie (@japangeordie) reported

    @aliiishahh @SkySports Exactly. The spending we are making now is to count act the damage left by Ashley. I hope we spend more.

  • Mrcoldman1991 Paul Aj Coldman (@Mrcoldman1991) reported

    @wilsoa10 @SkySports Bank holiday weekend civil service offices would be closed over the weekend and Monday so I don’t understand why this is such an issue it’s what happens when you wait until just before bank holiday weekend to sign that striker we’ve needed all summer
