    @virginmedia experiencing the worst customer service I have ever had. Been a customer for 10+ years but not after today @SkyUK will be gaining another customer instead

  • GraemeF55 Graeme (@GraemeF55) reported from London, England

    @SkyHelpTeam is there anyone on hand to try and solve an issue with my broadband?

  • DartfordTown Dartford Town (@DartfordTown) reported from Dartford, England

    @liamtjones1991 @rnattF @SkySportsPL @SkySports Codswallop! If Warwick Davis had been in goal he still would have towered 3 feet over the bloke on the floor. The keeper had a perfectly clear view, it's just another case of the VAR technology being let down by the idiot joy in charge of it.

  • der_tee_ Tev (@der_tee_) reported from London, England

    The internet around here has been terrible for weeks and today we've had no connection for hours @SkyHelpTeam

  • Theresalane1965 Theresa Lane (@Theresalane1965) reported from Ramsden Bellhouse, England

    @SkyHelpTeam I had hoped to have my problem sorted yesterday but no still waiting for a call from sky. New sky q in place but no use 😡 very poor service.

  • sue_adams_ Sue Adams (@sue_adams_) reported from Higham, England

    @SkyHelpTeam i got a new sky tv service in December as part of your refer a friend promotion. The person who referred me received his reward I think in February but no sign of mine. I understand you are only answering emergencies during covid times, but how long should I wait???

  • ldj71 LJ (@ldj71) reported from Brentwood, England

    @BricklayersN17 @SkySports Yer I had that problem I went to 402 so lost the fake fan noise but couldn’t for the life of me find a way of turning on the Spurs commentary, it was somehow stuck on Man U.

  • BertyBoyCAFC Paul Reynolds (@BertyBoyCAFC) reported from Gravesend, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi my sky hub been playing up for a few days now so I just run a test and it told me there’s a problem and to ring number. When I ring number tells I have to be alligible but I’m not so not sure what to do

  • BillBadger1976 Bill Badger (@BillBadger1976) reported from Romford, England

    @raytomany @SkySports I'm trying to work out how you mocked this up! Last time this happened it was Kevin Nolan. The nutcase owner made him manager so he'd play for us. I think he didn't play himself to start with and when he did he was terrible! He didn't last long!

  • GarygazzaGary Gary Glover @Home (@GarygazzaGary) reported from Dartford, England

    Look at this @SkySports @BBCSport @premierleague @piersmorgan @EFL @GMB @BBCBreakfast @mrdanwalker @itvnews @SkyNews this should be leading every news channel @10DowningStreet @Keir_Starmer @EdwardJDavey just terrible 😞😞😞

  • Theresalane1965 Theresa Lane (@Theresalane1965) reported from Ramsden Bellhouse, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Thus morning we upgraded to sky q. The 2 mini boxes are not working and your customer service number hangs up if you are not vulnerable. Disgusting service as you are quick enough to take my money.

  • howiesway Darren (@howiesway) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @SkyHelpTeam if overhead fibre has been installed in my street how do I get it to my house to be used with Sky Broadband? My standard Sky Broadband is very slow and hoping fibre to my house will make the difference.

  • purplepenguin81 Kelly 🐧🤘 (@purplepenguin81) reported from Romford, England

    @SkyUK your new screen design is awful. Its confusing and long winded with no thought for people who are visually impaired.

  • Wendyjhall Wendy Hall (@Wendyjhall) reported from Corringham, England

    Sort it out please @SkyUK No wifi since last Friday, meant to be upgraded to Superfast as WFH. No courtesy calls, keep having to chase. Absolutely unacceptable service. Today first time we had a call back from complaints dept. Engineer investigating tom they say..#BelieveInBetter

  • tattooedchef87 tristan downes (@tattooedchef87) reported from Crayford, England

    @SkyUK you are the worst internet providers i live in Bexleyheath. the box never works the internet constantly not working and you charge nearly 150 a month for what you dont answer or are helpful in your call helpline your a joke of a service furious cant even get work done

  • Land_Captain Edward Clibbens (@Land_Captain) reported from London, England

  • CllrGraySW Catherine Gray (@CllrGraySW) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @SkyHelpTeam My old Sky Q remote stopped responding, so you sent me a new one. I can’t get the new one to work. The ? button makes the red light come on, but that is it and reset etc hasn’t worked. How do I fix this please?

  • dan_grego Daniel Gregory (@dan_grego) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Yep. Terrible provider. Promised WiFi in every room, which I get but internet is awful, and reduces in strength the further from the hub you are. Never used so much 4g as I have with @SkyHelpTeam broadband. You can have full WiFi signal but it’s useless without internet.

  • shapecontractor Jim King (@shapecontractor) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I never ever had an issue with BT broadband in over 30 months. Since having sky broadband over the past two months I'm sick of my kids on my case about loss of connection. Tonight is the final straw. Not good enough. I'm going back to BT

  • scottyb649 Scott (@scottyb649) reported
