    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.

    Shane McKee @shanemuk@mastodon.ie (@shanemuk) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @Gar_Zo @Carrots1 @SkyHelpTeam Fibrus were working on the Station Road box the other week. Sounds like this is a fail on the network side...

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi I expect Sky to show goodwill to all their customers who were inconvenienced today. My wife & I are both working remotely and there was very poor communication over this issue as well as impacting on the work we need to do #skybroadband

  • BradleyGJ
    Glenn Bradley (@BradleyGJ) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Had to telephone @SkyHelpTeam @skytv to sort contract details out. Put through to a call centre, passed x3 to finally reach a lady who’s spoken English was not conversational & difficult. On the phone almost 1 hour that cost £24! All a poor example of customer service. #bewarned

    @SkyUK unable to watch sky sports on #myskygo app but other channels are fine. Error code 17c. Seems to be a common problem with @ThreeUK users!!! According to sky help website. Any chance of sorting this out!!!!

  • swalker004
    Stephen Walker (@swalker004) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Been a loyal @SkyUK customer for many years, but current process to move to Sky Q has been ongoing since 3rd August. Shocking service and zero communication. Time to cancel and move to @virginmedia

  • stephenorr20
    Stephen Orr (@stephenorr20) reported from Newtownards, Northern Ireland

    @SkyHelpTeam are you having issues with connecting skyq boxes on line. I got Q upgrade installed this morning and the box keeps losing connection both through hardwire and Wi-fi. My broadband is working fine for everything else. Getting very very frustrated

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

    @SkyHelpTeam I just get stuck in a loop of it trying to connect and fix the issue. How do I book an engineer directly since I can’t get out of the loop?

    @MichMC1 @premierleague @SkySports @ManUtd It's now or never....

    Ronnie McDowell 🔑 (@RonnieMcD424uk) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Disgrace that you can’t get through to @SkyUK @SkyHelpTeam. Services switched off when I can’t get out to pay the bill and when you phone to talk you get zero help!!

  • roundfacee_
    Chelsea (@roundfacee_) reported from Bangor, Northern Ireland

    @SkyHelpTeam I've accidentally added sky go extra to my account which I I don't want and can't cancel even though I've followed details on website. Please advise

    @SkyHelpTeam I would really appreciate if your sales team would remove me from their calling list...constant calls for a service I have no interest in signing up to. Thanks.

  • Squonk74
    Squonk (@Squonk74) reported

    @cxdi55 @skytv @SkyHelpTeam I've just left Sky after 26 years. Renewal prices nowhere near good enough to keep me as a customer. Pisses me off that some people will get better offers but that seems to get decided by who you actually talk to and when!

  • alexirvine98
    alex irvine (@alexirvine98) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I’ve had no internet all day and I’ve tried to live chat with no resolution. I have had to take a day off work and had terrible customer service

    Richard Armstrong (@Richard95646711) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam been on hold 15 mins. Had the phone put down 3 times and still not changed my contract for my 3 SIM cards. All I keep getting is an Asian fella telling me I’m on hold. Ridiculous sort it out

  • PaulRidley5
    Paul Ridley (@PaulRidley5) reported

  • MeltonPosh
    Brady Clark (@MeltonPosh) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi, why is it so hard to chase a live issue? Engineer issue passed to openreach and they have left a voicemail saying no issue on line. Now I don't know what is happening. Account number is 630194927418, I have a total loss of broadband service. Please advise.

  • leeburridge

    @SkySports . another old man Aussie coming across for a final big pay deal at hull fc for 1 season It never ends. Cherry-evans is 38-39 years old stopping a possible British player developing in to his position It’s not huge news it’s sad news for young British league players
