  • blamethepain Simon H. (@blamethepain) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @SkyHelpTeam hopefully by sending a message on here I’ll get some help. All other avenues are closed even for key workers it seems.

  • jorisminne Joris (@jorisminne) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @SkyHelpTeam message says “no programmes are currently being broadcast on this channel”. All other apps, on demand, cinema, etc working. Can you help?

  • davmacfc Dale McDonald (@davmacfc) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia @SkyHelpTeam any offers on the go for a soon to be ex virgin media customer

  • avalard Robert J.E. Simpson (@avalard) reported from Newtownards, Northern Ireland

    Mid stream and broadband goes down in BT23 @SkyHelpTeam. Run through all the checks and it appears to be a Sky fault... Will have to hope it's fixed by the morning now.

  • AndrewPaul70 Andrew Williamson (@AndrewPaul70) reported from Bangor, Northern Ireland

    @SkySports Not a Liverpool fan I admit, but thought the best one today was Henderson going down with an obvious injury, no contact, and the ref awards a free kick!?! They do not appear to understand the game, and suspect few of them have played it

  • cazz611 Carol Sands (@cazz611) reported from Doagh, Northern Ireland

    @SkyHelpTeam hi guys, are there issues currently in the BT39 area in N. Ireland. Problems since last night even after resetting router. Thanks

  • blueskyvideoguy Peter Craven (@blueskyvideoguy) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @Counter_Digital @SkySports @premierleague 100% - you just need to look at my TV bill to know that I’ll subscribe to most stuff where there’s some value. This is just profiteering at its worst. #bigpicture #bigripoff

  • michaelinbangor michael watterson (@michaelinbangor) reported from Bangor, Northern Ireland

    @Joshbxrber10 @SkySportsPL @SkySports Var was brought in to sort out close calls that need a better look. This decision shows that the people adjudicating over Var are incompetent and the FA must carry the blame. Fix it or get rid of it, it’s ruining football.

  • Kristian7Ross Kristian Ross (@Kristian7Ross) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Can anyone tell me why we still can’t get @RTEOne in HD on @SkyUK in NI, but @RTE2 is available in high def? Never thought it made any sense whatsoever. #TheHunger

  • sbd233 Socially Distant Steve Returns (@sbd233) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @SkySports Shilton’s support of UKIP and xenophobic rants leave quite a sour taste.

  • Oradaman Jackson Eagleson (@Oradaman) reported from Jordanstown, Northern Ireland

    @SkyUK just discovered your common problem of NO CATCHUP ON SKY ATLANTIC and system asking for us to UPGRADE. SKY Atlantic is part of our package and if catch-up on SKY channels is not included then cancel it and collect the equipment.

  • Oradaman Jackson Eagleson (@Oradaman) reported from Jordanstown, Northern Ireland

    @SkyHelpTeam I can't see my exact package details but have sent details of the package we took, you look it up and stop dancing around the problem. I have confirmed we have Box sets in our package, Devels appears in Box sets but we can't watch it. I think you just need to cancel and refund.

  • davyh_crfc David Hilditch (@davyh_crfc) reported from Carrickfergus, Northern Ireland

    @43mccauley @SkySports Nearly as bad as the motorway traffic noise at Seaview last night ....

  • kevinoneill_93 Kevin O'Neill (@kevinoneill_93) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Skysports coverage is so bad

  • MarkdavidLawlor MDL (@MarkdavidLawlor) reported from Dundonald, Northern Ireland

    @jpd26 @SkyHelpTeam @SkyCricket My parents have a similar issue but picture is good on the "non-HD" channel 🤔

  • sonnyboiiiiii Micheal (@sonnyboiiiiii) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @SkySports Wish this scruffy **** would just **** off!! Annoying ****!!

  • ElevenThirty Paul McCormack (@ElevenThirty) reported from Carrickfergus, Northern Ireland

    @SkyHelpTeam any idea when the broadband issue around BT38 will be resolved?

  • helloadambooth Adam Booth (@helloadambooth) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi, I’m having constant Broadband drops in Belfast. I don’t see any reported issues on your official page?

  • MoBoDrums Maurice Brown (@MoBoDrums) reported from Whiteabbey, Northern Ireland

    I thought @SkySports had the @RangersFC songs down to a tee but alas there was a crowd of fellas outside the ground!

  • weeramborossa mac (@weeramborossa) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @SkySports He won’t care but what a horrible cannt

    @SkySports Sack this idiot

  • purpledusty47 El Mason (@purpledusty47) reported

    @kaybhafc90 @SkyHelpTeam @NewPhoenix228 Same in PO6. Am on hold with sky helpline and apparently there is an 'issue' with their broadband at the moment. You would think they'd provide an update the customer service team handling social media, just to help them out with all the queries

  • t0mshaw Tom Shaw (@t0mshaw) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam also tried all the online advice. Reset etc. No joy. No service.

  • joolz33 Joolz (@joolz33) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam @J_u_ff Down in TN12. None of the steps to restore work

  • Dzlr69 Daryl Chumbley (@Dzlr69) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Then you might want to check the feed of this account or talk to your colleagues to responding to messages as there are loads of people saying they are having problems and we are all being told the same thing

  • J_u_ff juffeee (@J_u_ff) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hmm thanks. I've done tests and still nothing. A lot of people on here tweeting about the same issue, so I can probably assume it's not my hub connection at fault?

  • mabbyszn Mabby SZN (@mabbyszn) reported

    @SuperSportBlitz wtf is going on with the sound??? @SkySports 😭

  • Squydly Steve Howell (@Squydly) reported
