Matthew Ripton (@matthew_ripton) reported from Basingstoke, England@SkyHelpTeam I’ve just had to spend £33 on extra data for kids phones to do homework due to constant broadband dropping due to outages.

Gary king (@KingGary9king) reported from Wokingham, England@SkySports pay for football and then you want me to pay per view? **** that!

webwitter wave (@webwitterwave) reported from Old Basing and Lychpit, England@ells_afc @ThreeUK I'm blacklisted by @SkyUK for a mobile phone offer they initially refused to honour until I proved they were in the wrong. Since then, my VIP Diamond status built up over 23 years has vanished. I just use a different network now with a free SIM and a cash top up each month.

PSE Strategic Consultants Jamie Knight (@JamieNite66) reported from Alton, England@SkySports Lol, I can just imagine it the arguments about poor delivery into the box and lack of concentration.
-
Tadiwa (@MushTadi) reported from Wokingham, England@SkyHelpTeam WiFi is down, are you fixing the issue?
-
Paul Hunsdon (@Hunsy1969) reported from Wokingham, England@SkyHelpTeam Yes it is Liam. I’ll try a different phone in the socket tomorrow to see if that’s the issue and if it isn’t I’ll seek advice via yourselves. Thank you.

karsh davey (@rubbatiti) reported from Thatcham, England@indiejungle @SkySports WSL games are on the red button which even my mum can get on her TV. And to be fair that's as good as can be expected as the standard is poor. Any shot on target has a reasonable chance of going in because of the standard of goalkeeping. As per the spurs keeper yesterday

Sam (@angryatcoop) reported from Basingstoke, England@SkyHelpTeam This hasn’t helped at all my problem is not even an option.
-
Simon Harmer (@simonharmer) reported from South Wonston, EnglandThe total failure @SkyUK to resolve our problem is mind numbing. “I’m sorry you can’t call us right now” then a DM on twitter to say “just hold and someone will take your call” so I’ve now called three times and been cut off every time. Time to cancel our DD!

SeeTarno12 #StaySafeStayHome (@SeeTarno12) reported from Lindford, EnglandPSA: Do not, under ANY circumstance, choose @SkyUK as your ISP. Unless you want dropouts every 5 minutes, slow speeds, and generally shitty service. That is all.
-
Sadie♔ (@SadieLoove) reported from Basingstoke, England@SkyUK charging me £41.50 for ******* boxsets. This was never agreed. I don't even watch them! Outraged
-
JME ©™ (@Jme_Cook) reported from Wokingham, England@SkyHelpTeam Your website blames this issue in Dundee for the outage, but I fail to see how that would cause problems in the South of England tbh! U less your entire service has gone down country wide?
-

David (@p4yno) reported from Wokingham, EnglandThe Sky Q remote control is simply terrible 😣 is there a way you can use the old remote control? @SkyUK
-
Matthew Ripton (@matthew_ripton) reported from Basingstoke, England@SkyHelpTeam I’m speaking with sky technical most days, they cannot tell me when it will be fixed. However after one month of broken broadband I can leave my contract with sky. That’s really not helpful ! I expect the service fixed.
