  • toonpete85 Pete Hind (@toonpete85) reported from Newburn, England

    I'll keep asking until you bother to reply @SkyHelpTeam... I'm trying to work here but having precisely no success thanks to my terrible WiFi.

  • toonpete85 Pete Hind (@toonpete85) reported from Newburn, England

    So @SkyHelpTeam texted me at 6am on Wednesday morning saying that all the problems in my area were fixed.... that was evidently a LIE.

  • ICEKOP JFT97 Jeff Iceton (@ICEKOP) reported from Peterlee, England

    Oh #martintyler you ignorant prick. @SkySports sack this idiot immediately!!!

  • laurafarrow91 Laura Ashley Anderson (Farrow) (@laurafarrow91) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @skytv @SkyHelpTeam I’ve got no satellite signal and I can’t get a engineer out until the 24th that’s over 2 weeks with no television

  • ScooterRiderFMX 🏳️‍🌈 #ImArnieWhoAreYou? 🏳️‍🌈 (@ScooterRiderFMX) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @SkyHelpTeam I’ve done all that and it’s on off on off how about I cancel my direct debit till u sort it ?

  • toonpete85 Pete Hind (@toonpete85) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @SkyHelpTeam That's it, it says there's a local issue (reported on 15th Dec, ie. next week?!) but not what the issue is or when it might be fixed. My landline has also been down since early last week - I live with my 75-year-old mother and if I'm out that's her only method of contact

  • KJS97_ Kel (@KJS97_) reported from Longbenton, England

    @SkyUK internet been down since midday yesterday 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

  • jasonhebron Jase ⚫️⚪️ ♿️ (@jasonhebron) reported from Newburn, England

    @SkySports FIFA telling us that the ‘young generation’ who’ve never been asked or polled want a World Cup more often.. This is down to money for the top flight & nothing more! #corruption

  • MichaelLane15 Michael Lane (@MichaelLane15) reported from Seaham, England

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

  • GamerBelsh Gamer Nights Online (@GamerBelsh) reported from Prudhoe, England

    @jnbain @SkyHelpTeam Yes apparently major outage, but not 100% on cause

  • xAlexandraLeex Alexandra Lee (@xAlexandraLeex) reported from Ovingham, England

    @SkyUK The fact that it literally is just streaming and no hard drive to actually record things, the cost of the tv package shouldn’t be the same as SkyQ. There should be a reduction in price for what is just a streaming service. I’m pretty disappointed with it tbh

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

    @SkyHelpTeam could an engineer -hypothetically- move my dish to another wall of my house due to poor signal where it is?

  • toonpete85 Pete Hind (@toonpete85) reported from Newburn, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Also what about the landline issue? Do I need to call in about that as well? From the landline that hasn't been working for knocking on three weeks?

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

    Never warched anything as staged and rehearsed as #tournamentofhouses @SkyUK #skymax such a disappointment for my kids its all american. Howay Dame Mirren. Your better than this #turnedoff

  • aliciagraceee Alicia Clayton (@aliciagraceee) reported from Newburn, England

    Already rang @SkyUK about the internet not connecting and then it being slow. It then worked for an hour 😡. Having to use my phone to watch tv because you can’t use the sky apps as they’re buffering and numerous internet not connecting messages!

  • peteward74 peter ward (@peteward74) reported from Durham, England

    @SkySports Slow night for sports news tonight like as this isn’t sport.

  • aliciagraceee Alicia Clayton (@aliciagraceee) reported from Newburn, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Yes I did all of that and today it’s the same issue. So slow and saying technical issues now. My skyq mini box hasn’t worked for three weeks and won’t connect either. The advisor said it was a fast connection but the messages on screen and buffering tell a different story.

  • ScanchezVikario Scanchez (@ScanchezVikario) reported

    @martytyke @SkySports Who thinks the poppy is offensive?! They do it every year and nobody has issue with it. Although players kneeling seems to offend / enrage lots of people.

  • McqeenSteven Steven McQueen (@McqeenSteven) reported

    @SkySports Don’t confuse Southgate any further he has enough trouble picking a decent side

  • KASFFC Lords (@KASFFC) reported

    @Iz_Philly @MichaelBensonn @SkySports Ah yeh, sorry. Damn, should have used your intelligence instead of listening to the guy who actually runs matchroom. Sorry guys, let’s all go to izphilly next time

  • OooPooLooMooZoo Seonaid MacKay (@OooPooLooMooZoo) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam What is the direct number please for your technical team? Am a new customer and so far am not impressed by how difficult it is find contact details to resolve issue of upload speeds far below what I pay for. Am considering direct complaint to ombudsman because of this difficulty

  • Ebony_Johnson Ebony Johnson (@Ebony_Johnson) reported from Whitfield, England

    @SkyHelpTeam once again for the 100th time my broadband has gone down, been doing it all day on and off. I'm sick of it. Seriously thinking of changing provider after years of this! Not its not a problem with my area. From what I hear it all over the whole country!!!

  • MrHM199 Hamzah Min (@MrHM199) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam my services down in Birmingham West Midlands. I have used the online service to book an engineer but the status is just showing in progress. The engineer i booked in February that job is still showing in progress too. Any update?

  • spoonfairy66 Stewart Auty (@spoonfairy66) reported

    @SkySports Don't you just wish he would set vanity aside and play football? He thinks he looks good - he doesn't. He might be able to play football, but we haven't seen any consistency yet. And don't get me started on how lazy Kane and Rashford are at closing down defenders.

  • Charlove_85 Charl (@Charlove_85) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam do you think the issue in Trafford will be fixed today? If not, I need to make arrangements for working tomorrow.

  • JenniOConnell Jenni Weston (@JenniOConnell) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Yes I have tried all the steps, just tells me it's not working. I received a text saying 'we may be having issues' but no other information on when it is likely to come back on....

  • _JamieA5h Jamie (@_JamieA5h) reported

    @MC_AG_NM @SkySports Being gay has **** all to do with playing football, 'you're a ******* retard if that's your narrative.'
