  • briggsym matt (@briggsym) reported from Wickford, England

    @TheSunFootball Why don’t @SkySports @skytv just do the right thing and just not collect the money rather than make customers do the chasing. They could then offer up their contact centre to the Government to support their efforts! What a PR coup that would be!

  • WHunt2002 Wayne Hunt (@WHunt2002) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @SkyUK - please ask the Help department to respond to my query

  • RonMahoney1965 Ron Mahoney (@RonMahoney1965) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @SkyUK 2 hour wait on the phone to cancel down a subscription, but if you want to UPGRADE you can do it online, on the app or on your box. Why don't you make it easier for people out of contract to make changes at this difficult time, appalling customer service

  • LIHT80 Lad In His Thirties (@LIHT80) reported from Wickford, England

    @SkyUK internet that I pay for and my package in general is shit! I am contacting @virginmedia tomorrow putting sky. Shocking. Just everything about

  • curvychorister Kerry Louise Page (@curvychorister) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @SkyUK terrible service from your complaint team ref 1232855146 just had an email to say it’s been resolved.I don’t think so,far from it. New iphone @AppleSupport delivered faulty and a two week wait to get a new one #dontbelieveinbetter #shouldhavestuckwithEE

  • gammorreon Gammorreon Kennel (@gammorreon) reported from Althorne, England

    @SkyHelpTeam we moved into our new build in March and have no phone line we have tried contacting sky many times but still no luck. I have tried to cancel our previous subscription and get a new one set up and tried moving our old one over but we are not getting anywhere.

  • paulajo43876083 paula jones (@paulajo43876083) reported from Hatfield Peverel, England

    @SkyUK discussing service. Problems with internet for 3 months. Sky blame Bt. By blame sky . Won’t even come out and look at the system they installed. Won’t even offer discount . I’m paying £120 a month and I can’t even get my business emails @BBCWatchdog

  • iamemmaparadise Emma Paradise (@iamemmaparadise) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @SkyUK ..... seriously crap service...... I’ve had to reset my router 9 times today and reactive a minibox 12! Sort it out!!! #whatamipayingfor #shitservice #skyinternet #constantconnectivityissues

  • Darrensparky Darren Kerner (@Darrensparky) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @SkyUK . Internet and phone line not working properly since installed on 9th December. 5 open reach engineers on 3 separate appointments to find the fault. No communications. Then you insult me by offering me £16 in compensation. This is poor Sky

  • MarkEngland_ Mark England (@MarkEngland_) reported from Rochford, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Wish I could get a good deal for 2x Mini boxes! Been a loyal Sky customer for donkeys years now, as have the rest of my family.

  • ManOnAHog KevRiz (@ManOnAHog) reported from Hockley, England

    So, I reordered Sky TV & broadband, it changed over today but still no sky router....phoned up to unleash hell today but spoke to.the sweetest sounding Scottish lady called Audrey who resolved my issue painlessly. I'm a sucker for a Scottish accent. @SkyUK

  • jpsanders71 JonnyS (@jpsanders71) reported from Witham, England

    @SkySports Whatever the true reason I would think a pretty large proportion of the population will see completing the season as only being about money. If they go ahead it may solve a short term cash problem but their reputation will be f*#ked. Cancel the season now!

  • mrs_harket BeKind_Charlatan🌱 (@mrs_harket) reported from Rayleigh, England

    @nick_f1979 @SkyHelpTeam My MiL who chops & changes her plan constantly can change hers online. We’ve had sky coming on 21 years, never questioned anything & we can’t cancel. #angry

  • curvychorister Kerry Louise Page (@curvychorister) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    Great to see the fantastic service from Sky customer complaints team.. no reply to an email sent by them on the 29/7 asking me to contact them regarding complaint #dontbeliveinbetterservice @SkyUK

  • Annhackett6 Ann Henderson (@Annhackett6) reported from Thundersley, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi team since my new sky box has been fitted 2 weeks ago I have picture interference and it is taking forever to down load a programme from catchup please can you help.

  • Cover4Caravans Richard Burgess (@Cover4Caravans) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    Funny how if you want to remove a package you have to ring @SkyUK and you can’t do it online. That’s creating a barrier for a customer when it could easily be done online.

  • rubyred1959 Tracey Williams (@rubyred1959) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @SkyUK Unless you are a long standing customer that pays over £100 per month, and the box is crap 🤬

  • pt_seg seg Mason PT (@pt_seg) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @SkyUK our internet has been down for 3 days. We have turned it on & off pressed rest & still nothing. What are you going to do about it. We are paying for a service. What are you going to do.

  • DNAPhysio Dan Doherty (@DNAPhysio) reported from Maldon, England

    @SkyHelpTeam I'm an NHS keyworker. I have broadband issues that I cannot address online yet there appears to be no way to speak to anyone - please advise urgently

  • daz_poz Darren Posnack 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@daz_poz) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @SkyHelpTeam absolutely fed up with Sky now. 3 days constantly trying to pause my sports & it never goes through online. Telling me to try a phone number that doesn’t work. If I get billed the full amount (including more price rises) next month I’ll cancel my whole subscription.

  • CelticDa88 Celtic Da (@CelticDa88) reported

    Where do #Skysports get off? No pre match. They wouldn’t get away with it down south. If they don’t value the game, let BT take it and do it properly!

  • 8gzd8k76nM Paul (@8gzd8k76nM) reported

    @legaltweeter2 @SkyHelpTeam It’s almost like the problems you have can’t be resolved on Twitter you lemon

  • laurak871 Laura 🌻🌮 (@laurak871) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam any news on the broadband outage which appears to be across most of Norfolk?!

  • p0werm3lon p0werm3lon (@p0werm3lon) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam my broadband has been constantly going down for the past week, and today it's went down at least 4 times in the past hour, how can i arrange someone to come out and fix this?

  • DannyGee73 Dan Gee (@DannyGee73) reported

    @SkyUK Awful broadband - always dropping out or not working. What's the deal here?

  • Lyn_1969 Lynda Harrington (@Lyn_1969) reported

    @SkyUK @SkyHelpTeam currently sorting my broadband renewal via text with you...been a customer for 17yrs now. Asked if setup cost can be removed because we already have equipment etc and was told the setup charge is so any discounts and offers can be applied?!! Really???

  • 8gzd8k76nM Paul (@8gzd8k76nM) reported

    @jackmoon10 @SkyHelpTeam There was no response because you tweeted after 9 you cretin. TV Satellite signal and broadband come on 2 different technologies so for sat signal run through the online steps to try and fix it, if that doesn’t work and you’re signed in you can book a TV engineer
