  • slapnuts316 Slappy (@slapnuts316) reported from Washington, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi can you explain why you have put my pensioner mother's bill up by £20 in a pandemic. Bad enough doing this but even worse in a pandemic when she can't have anyone round to visit. She relies on her tv.

  • dgleesonhistory David Gleeson (@dgleesonhistory) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Sent you a dm last week re: security update I need to make wifi work at home. No reply. Website not helpful. 11 years as a Sky customer. Would like to make it 12.

  • TintmyRideNcl TInt My Ride (@TintmyRideNcl) reported from Longbenton, England

    @SkyHelpTeam best part of 3hrs and 30 mins spent speaking to and not speaking too (calls getting left on hold) your support teams is just what I want to do on my only day off! Tech support asking for viewing card number in the side of the router #absoluteshambles still not sorted

  • 0800BEN Ben Letby (@0800BEN) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @EmmaB_0811 @SkyHelpTeam I had Sky broadband about 5 years ago and it was the same then. If you have Sky TV, the box goes into eco mode in the early hours which kills the wi fi connection to some devices in the house. If you turn off eco mode in settings on your sky tv box, it might solve the problem 🙏

  • wjc_14 Will (@wjc_14) reported from Sunderland, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Yes, they said they were calling about problems with my broadband. Thought he sounded dodgy, so I told him where to go.

  • peteroliver18 Peter Oliver (@peteroliver18) reported from Washington, England

  • smudga27 Ian Smith (@smudga27) reported from Newburn, England

    @skytv @SkyHelpTeam Can you explain the constant issues with the “guaranteed” WiFi service performance you promise me? Ability to support multiple devices ❌ stability of service ❌speeds ❌#skybroadband #skyvip

  • judgefudge75 lee milligan (@judgefudge75) reported from Wallsend, England

  • john_rharper John Harper (@john_rharper) reported from Dunston, England

    Absolute joke of a system this! Clear and obvious! Get rid of this farcical VAR... or those making these awful decisions! Get rid!!! Not the first time Stuart Attwell has made an absolute shocker of a decision! Useless! #skysports #fa #ARSLEE

  • jaydug Jamie Douglas (@jaydug) reported from Wallsend, England

    Loving the coverage from @SkySports but have to say I think that was there worst production so far. Highlights just getting thrown in wherever and cameras not even catching the whole of the game . #thebbl

  • D0nATr0n D0natr0n (@D0nATr0n) reported

    Hi @SkyHelpTeam Are you aware of any issues with the IMAP servers on Sky Email? All of my mail clients have stopped being able to sync with my Email account but the settings and password are correct (confirmed by logging in to Webmail OK) & all 'missing' emails are there.

  • Nemz45 Nemz (@Nemz45) reported

    @SkySportsNews @SkySports Please make the pitches neutral even though England batting was disaster but this so bad a test didnt even took full 2 days to finish.

  • richardaharvey4 rick (@richardaharvey4) reported

    @AlisonSoltysiak @SkyHelpTeam Apparently they have a broken fibre and have employed the worlds slowest fibre splicing engineer.

  • USA___UK United Pundit (@USA___UK) reported

    @MCFCMase @SkySports He was £17m and he was replaced the following summer. Mendy hasn’t been worth £50m. Danilo wasn’t bad to be fair. He has spent £500m on defenders.

  • RichardEarp14 Richard Earp (@RichardEarp14) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam so why can't I cancel online or is it deliberately made difficult to put people off cancelling?

  • mrs_and_mother Mrs and mother (@mrs_and_mother) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I have followed all your steps 2x now and it still hasn't fixed the issue 😔 & it won't let me talk to anyone just keeps sending me round in circles? Is your live chat not available anymore?

  • MatthewBelcher7 Matthew Belcher (@MatthewBelcher7) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam 9 hours wtf is going on, when will services be reconnected

  • ppman20887479 ppman (@ppman20887479) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Can you just fix it... seriously... like no one cares about he ASAP part just get it done

  • pagrev paul ev (@pagrev) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I will have to try once again at the weekend as it took ages to get through before. Very disappointed with the customer service in handling this problem when it should be very simple.

  • AccyGaz AccyGaz ⚽️🏏 (@AccyGaz) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Is there anything that can be done to stop my broadband from dropping out? We pay for fibre yet every time we play games online or stream, the screens are constantly freezing due to “poor internet connection”. It’s winding me up and thinking of a changing suppliers.
