  • JonStannard Jon Stannard (@JonStannard) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @SkyUK @SkyHelpTeam Sky help team don’t help. They just send you apologies and leave you to it. #poorservice

  • DanHarvey74 Harvs (@DanHarvey74) reported from Rayleigh, England

    @david_wfc @SkySports "You know how Watford treat their head coaches, there have been a lot, what do you need to do to stay here longer than most of them?" was the tone & sneakyness of it to someone whose English is very broken!

  • JonStannard Jon Stannard (@JonStannard) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @SkyUK maybe someone from SKY will look after this customer?

  • laurajjcook Laura (@laurajjcook) reported from Thundersley, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Frustrating to have phoned twice in past week to be told internet drop outs were result of poorly placed router (same place as it has always been)/Christmas tree placement (nowhere near router)/other devices interfering (see aforementioned). Clearly a Sky issue this week.

  • laurajjcook Laura (@laurajjcook) reported from Thundersley, England

    @handzia @SkyHelpTeam Their website is now down too!

  • JonStannard Jon Stannard (@JonStannard) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @SkyUK have closed my complaint without even speaking to me. What?

  • DanHarvey74 Harvs (@DanHarvey74) reported from Rayleigh, England

    @JonesyyWFC @SkySports But no, along these lines.. "You know how Watford treat their head coaches, there have been a lot, what do you need to do to stay here longer than most of them?" was the tone & sneakyness of it to someone whose English is very broken!

  • mikemackay Mike Mackay (@mikemackay) reported from Witham, England

    @steevedrew @SkyHelpTeam It sure does 😔 This is the time I’m grateful I don’t work in CS on Twitter etc. Seeing some of the replies they’re getting are terrible.

  • mikemackay Mike Mackay (@mikemackay) reported from Witham, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Are you able to tell of any broadband/fibre outages in CM8 2? No service here anymore.

  • JonStannard Jon Stannard (@JonStannard) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @SkyUK the incompetence of SKY is unbelievable. I might as well buy the dish and hope it gets a signal. Lied to. Again and again. Promised much! Delivers little.

  • JonStannard Jon Stannard (@JonStannard) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @SkyUK wow! I complained to SKY. I’ve had 3 different people email me. The last one suggested I use my sky box to help. That’ll be the SKY box that wasn’t installed today? The incompetence and lack of care is astounding.

  • nounsley Chris Livingston (@nounsley) reported from Hatfield Peverel, England

    @SkyHelpTeam any update on today’s dreadful service?

  • JonStannard Jon Stannard (@JonStannard) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @SkyUK and sure enough SKY will charge me for a service I’ve not had.

  • maynard563 Tony Maynard (@maynard563) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @OpenreachHelp @SkyHelpTeam My Parents have been unable to make or receive calls since December. My Mum contacted @SkyUK on 23rd December, then again on 2nd Jan, have had a visit then and they traced the issue back to Open Reach equipment. Still not sorted! What is going on??

  • segmasonagm Seg Lark ( Mason ) (@segmasonagm) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @SkyUK you are absolutely awful company for wifi you still charge me / others when the wifi is down will be calling to cancel my wifi & looking to go else where

  • laurajjcook Laura (@laurajjcook) reported from Thundersley, England

    @JellyNation1 @SkyHelpTeam Yes I have never had issue either until past two weeks. It is the not being believed when you call to say it isn’t working that is frustrating. I am not an internet expert but I know it not my Christmas tree causing speed to drop so dramatically!

  • JonStannard Jon Stannard (@JonStannard) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @SkyUK 6 didnt people. All transferred me to others who couldn’t or wouldn’t help. Sky personnel lie.

  • JonStannard Jon Stannard (@JonStannard) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @SkyUK 6 different people who all transferred me to others who couldn’t or wouldn’t help. Sky personnel lie to customers

  • JonStannard Jon Stannard (@JonStannard) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @SkyUK wow! I write a letter adressing some issues and SKY wrote back. Standard letter, thanks for contact. Nothing. Not one issue addressed. Could this company be any worse?

  • mikemackay Mike Mackay (@mikemackay) reported from Witham, England

    @jeg1972 @SkyHelpTeam Both! Constantly slow (~18% of my speeds prior to Dec 23rd) and daily multiple disconnects.

    @SkyHelpTeam Hello,I am looking to upgrade to sky Q but reading the small print I’m better off cancelling my current subscription and being a new customer? Set-up: New customers: £20; Existing Sky Q customers: £20; Existing Sky+HD customers upgrading to Sky Q: £119.Please confirm

  • Jackmenison Jackson Anthony (@Jackmenison) reported

    @SkySports Crap Tennis in this Covid crisis should be stopped. In fact tennis should be banned

  • panda_supreme matt poole (@panda_supreme) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I just spoke to someone who wasn't any help, said the refund was processed on the 30th January and already been sent to my bank. She wasn't interested in anything else and I've rechecked my bank and the initial payment wasn't taken until the 3rd

  • alisonmanic Vande - Digimon @ With the Will (@alisonmanic) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Just so a new router can be sent. Not even sure if that is the issue...

  • Grumpyme4 Grumpyme :KBF DefundtheBBC Pro-Brexit (@Grumpyme4) reported

    @SkySports That would be the Australian Open where they're having crowds of 30,000 yet we still see the covid sheeple on here saying Australia is locked down. THEY'VE shown us what should have been done and how to treat odd local clusters.

  • RossyWB90 Ross Lambert (@RossyWB90) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam reported a fault with no internet in my home and told I have to wait up to 72 hours to be contacted by the “network team”. 72 hours! Surely you can do better than that.

  • EddieWatsonRFC Eddie Watson (@EddieWatsonRFC) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Upgraded to Superfast broadband but never got sent cables to complete job , I was informed they would be sent out straight away that was one week ago

  • rundoorirun Roadrunner (@rundoorirun) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi! I’m a sky broadband and boost customer, however, I don’t have wifi in every room as it was promised with my boost subscription. Can you please send me a wifi booster?

  • Physiologist_JR Jonathan Robinson (@Physiologist_JR) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Thinking about it when it went on Saturday the TV which is connected to the router via Ethernet also went off , so that’s not a WiFi issue is it, that’s a connection issue.

  • AdamB_22 Adam (@AdamB_22) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam hi, I've placed an order as a new customer but had an email this morning saying that it has been cancelled and my subscription won't start. What is going on? I've not cancelled anything...
