  • KimberleyAStone Kiki (@KimberleyAStone) reported from Redditch, England

    @OpenreachHelp Ive contacted my service provider @SkyHelpTeam and they’re refusing because they’ve said you have to send it to me because they don’t want to be liable. Ive now decided to cancel the upgrade because my landlord is refusing to let any works happen without these permits.

  • LadFromTheBlues Lad from the Tilton (@LadFromTheBlues) reported from Birmingham, England

    @SkyHelpTeam It seems ok this morning after rebooting but every night the WiFi signal to internet is broke for at least an hour this has been happening for at least 2 weeks

  • arn_fm Arn but football (@arn_fm) reported from Bromsgrove, England

    @SkySports Couldn't turn down the chance to earn that much money

  • richardharper Richard Harper (@richardharper) reported from Redditch, England

    @skyhelpteam are there issues in Worcestershire? Your checker app says no known issues in my area, yet my broadband is down, and that I need an engineer visit, but won’t let me book one. Is that your way of avoiding your Ofcom obligations?

  • RickieWrites Rickie Josen (@RickieWrites) reported from Birmingham, England

    @KateWritesBooks @SkyHelpTeam Awful. Odd though as I've been paper-free for as long as I remember but Sky still send paper letters for when bills go up.

  • SunilHans1 Sunil Hans (@SunilHans1) reported from Birmingham, England

    @SkyHelpTeam I don’t expect anything anymore from Sky. Been a customer for over 20 years….makes me think why.

  • brummingham Christopher Cummings (@brummingham) reported from Birmingham, England

    @SkyHelpTeam i am getting 3-7 mbps from my hub. Had the same issue last week that I fixed with restarting my hub. Happened again last night and that fix hasn’t worked. I am getting the same speeds either by WiFi or connected directly via Ethernet cable.

  • RayMairead Mairead 🇬🇧 (@RayMairead) reported from Birmingham, England

    @SkyHelpTeam No internet, a new mast was put outside my house yesterday now my internet is down. The WiFi and power lights are on but no internet.

  • richardharper Richard Harper (@richardharper) reported from Redditch, England

    @SkyHelpTeam are there issues in Worcestershire? Your checker app says no known issues in my area, yet my broadband is down, and that I need an engineer visit, but won’t let me book one. Is that your way of avoiding your Ofgem obligations?

  • MarkHulme_ Mark Hulme.💀 (@MarkHulme_) reported from Willenhall, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Well it’s available to watch and download on the #All4 app, just not through the #All4 menu section on my Sky box so isn’t that an issue with your services then?

  • deanstan1210 deano1210 (@deanstan1210) reported from Birmingham, England

    @SkySports are you ever going to do something about souness and his quite obvious hatred for @paulpogba ? It's got to the point where h e is shouting down the punditry team to get his spiteful agenda out there.

  • SunilHans1 Sunil Hans (@SunilHans1) reported from Birmingham, England

    Can’t believe how long it has taken for @SkyUK to sort out the broadband…went down on 7th August 2021 and still no service. Unbelievable.

  • king_body_art King Of Ink Land ® (@king_body_art) reported from Birmingham, England

    Thanks for letting me skip adverts after 30 or 40 seconds @SkyHelpTeam you also just made me hate @Apple even more than I already do paying for the service to be sold things we don't need or want

  • MustBeTheJanay Janet Hopper (@MustBeTheJanay) reported from Tamworth District, England

    @SkyHelpTeam hi our sky q box always tries to sign in to our neighbours sky WiFi. Everything we turn the box we have to reset the network settings to our own WiFi. Send help it's so annoying. Thanks. @anniehops

  • PhilBeardmore Phil Beardmore 🌍 (@PhilBeardmore) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Saigon_Redux @GNev2 @SkySports Gary is right on this issue, as he invariably is.

  • SunilHans1 Sunil Hans (@SunilHans1) reported from Birmingham, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Can I DM you my details and please can you try to give me some kind of update as I have no faith in calling in. I have done this on numerous occasions and no one can give me any time scales or an update as to when I will get internet service again. I have had to pay for more data

  • SunilHans1 Sunil Hans (@SunilHans1) reported from Birmingham, England

    So tomorrow will be 5 weeks without any internet service from @SkyUK they can’t sort the issue out with @OpenreachHelp made numerous phone calls and no one can give me any time scales as to when this will be sorted out… I give up

  • assman80 Knife Man (@assman80) reported from Birmingham, England

    @SkyUK I have no Internet in the B74 area of Birmingham. Is there problems with the network?

  • iamjameslevett James Levett (@iamjameslevett) reported from Wednesfield, England

    @SkyHelpTeam My broadband has gone down so I go straight to the app and go through the whole ‘test my hub’ section… it then says I require an engineer that will cost ME £15… you having a laugh?

  • Torogram87 🏳️‍🌈Jae🇬🇧 (@Torogram87) reported from Birmingham, England

    @SkyUK my internet has cut out and is not working help now…

    @SkySports How did they not? Was it essential they go to a non league football ground? Stop talking ****. It'll serve them all right when the virus spreads through their families won't it. Selfish c*nts.

  • nicolejwalsh Nicole Walsh (@nicolejwalsh) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam broadband outage started last night and still off this morning. Not the best start to another week of online school or WFH. How long to sort please? #skybroadband

  • stonhamm1 Matthew Stonham (@stonhamm1) reported

    @MrTaylorTeach @SkyUK Mine has been running slow mate. I rung them. They’ve refunded me for the month and are sending an engineer out to have a look 👍🏼

  • Trev112 Trevor Rhodes (@Trev112) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Just fix the bloody internet and I’ll be happy. Been dropping in and out for a few days now which is a pain in the arse when i have to work from home. I’ve already tried resetting it and everything else.

  • guernseybird GuernseyBird (@guernseybird) reported

    It is not acceptable for @SkyUK to hold its customers hostage. They will not allow you to cancel the service through their website but have not got capacity in their call centre to get through in a reasonable timeframe😡 NOT ACCEPTABLE 🤬
