    Absolutely shocking service from @SkyUK @SkyHelpTeam this evening, they can’t call me back and can’t send emails between departments, i thought we were In 2019 not 1940 #newcustomer #shockingservice #awfulcustomerservice #cantwaittocancel

  • tomoennion7 Thomas Ennion (@tomoennion7) reported from Hindley, England

  • BenGShirley Ben Shirley (@BenGShirley) reported from Atherton, England

    @aberfoodblog @fLip_uk @ioauk @BBCCasualty @thepengineer @BBC @BBC6Music @BBCiPlayer @SkyUK @NetflixUK @SalfordAcoustic @S3ASpatialAudio Hence why the clean audio recommendations in ETSI and other broadcast standards were largely ineffective in solving the problem. Object based audio has advantages that research like this needs to explore if we are to gain any benefit. Also it really wasn't an expensive project!

  • mowfie April Mowforth (@mowfie) reported from Preston, England

    @SkyHelpTeam sick of these problems with recording on sky Q. It was showing on the app as recording but wasn’t recording on the sky box. Really wish I hadn’t upgraded to this it’s been nothing but trouble!
