We have been waiting over a month for our Sky Broadband connection to be enabled. We have had some Openreach engineers visit but there is zero management of the issue by Sky not any communication from them around the issue. We have to phone up daily for an update from a customer services advisor who knows nothing and cannot seemingly do anything to help. Going with them I would describe as a massive mistake. My advice would be to avoid like the plauge, may be well priced but not if you end up with a service that never works and with no desire on their part to remedy that.

absolutely shocking service, but went to upgrade the internet speed after 20 years of being with sky, and the upgrade which apparently requires an engineer visit was initially delayed, then cancelled on the same day, then delayed again. worst company iv ever heard the misfortune of dealing with.

I called sky on 19/04/2024 as I realised my broadband was higher than agreed. I was informed my contract had finished and agreed on a new contract of £33 per month. Since then £49 each month was taken from my account. I finally called yesterday and was informed of an extra added to my account and was informed I could have it removed and a message would be sent to managers who could find out how it happened and a potential refund for the difference. Was told it would be cancelled as of 20/04/2024. I woke up this morning to my broadband not working and called sky to find out that the person I spoke with yesterday had cancelled my package altogether. Was advised they can have it fixed but would take 2 weeks to get internet. My point to the person on the phone was if it takes 2 weeks then what’s the point after the service I’ve had when I can change provider. Get it quicker and get better speeds. The person said there was nothing else they could do. Spoke with another person who this time was much more helpful however the relationship has soured and this bad experience has forced me to look elsewhere. I work from home permanently and had to go out to the office since my hotspot wasn’t working and have lost pay today because of this whole situation. Really poor from a company that’s the size of sky.

Sky is the worst company for interest that I ever contacted in my entire life. The customer service is a scammer call center, the router is the worst router that I ever had and I only had problems with wile client of this company.There are soo many complaints online about this company that is impossible to reply all.

I agree Sky customer services communication, help, results and problem solving is absolutely appaling. I can't believe in 2024 their set up instructions and help is that poor. They genuinely don't seem interested at all im assisting customers. In fact i was given imcorrect advise and incorrect escalatilons to the wrong team. Basically anything to get you off the phone. I'm really regrettihg switching from BT. Hopeless.

I would give it -5 stars if I can for Costumer Service! . I had broadband with Sky for over 3 years. Once it stopped working it took them 7 weeks to try to fix it. Took me about 25 calls and hours hours over 40 hours i would say easy on the phone. Multiple times they told me a technician will come on this and this day so I took the day off from work, no one showed up so when I called them they checked the systems and said there was never an appointment put through (this happened twice) Once I decided enough is enough I wanted to cancel my services with them when I got put through the cancellation team on 5 different calls 5 different sky employers either simply hung up the phone on me or transferred me to an non relevant dept so the cancellation doesnt come off their bonus it was so obvious!! I finally got put through to a Supervisor who promised me he will look into it for me and call me back which he never did. Once again I had to call back finally speaking to a manager who said your services will be cancelled as of today and no more money will be charged due to everything you have went through. I asked him to send me proof of this he said he simply cannot. 4 months later Im getting calls from a credit controller that I own Sky 40 euros. 6 months later I get a call from Sky asking if I would like to upgrade my package. UNREAL. So I called them today was promised a call back that they will look into it that call back never happen. I finally got told yes it was never cancelled but it is as of today so I asked to send me some kind of proof that its cancelled I was simply told that they cannot do this. I asked about the credit of 40 euros was told that it will be looked at and they will let me know within 5 working days I asked how will you let me know his answer was simply I dont know. Never ever use this provider! I wrote an complain email today, Im sure it will simply be ignored.

Avoid at all costs The worst customer service ever. Few days ago I was promised with two months compensation and today I was told by someone her name ILEANA ONE OF THE TEAM LEADER that is not gonna happen and I was offered 20 pounds after few hours of waiting over the phone and I have rejected it. She refused all kind of help and she was writing her own notes and not the truth so she can cover the mistake made by her colleague and also to cause me more troubles. Don’t wast your time find decent company always remember that after sale is very important. I can guarantee you that every time you speak with to the customer service you will hear a different story. Never ever again worst company

Sky mobile will not allow you to remove parental controls, and thus access your full SIM functionality (which you have paid for), unless you have a credit card, or have a credit agreement with them. I have neither and offered a passport / mortgage documents to prove i am an adult. This back and forth via approx a dozen emails and calls resulted in sky saying its their policy and nothing can be done. I asked for it to be raised as a formal complaint to their policy / management team. This took several more emails and calls and they eventually said the complaint would be raised and then immediately marked as resolved, as nothing could be done. This is a frustrating outcome and its a silly policy that allows no way to prove your adulthood apart from essentially getting into debt via a credit card, or getting a credit agreement. Customer service was polite, but kept going in circles in an effort to simply wear you down. Pretty poor show sky!

Excellent customer services team!! Had a couple of queries to sort today and two members of staff assisted me. Both members off staff were very polite and professional. To which I’m extremely grateful. So I wish to mention their names in this review, as I believe they deserve some recognition for the wonderful service they provide. The first customer service advisor I spoke to was named Sagar and the second Preeti. Kind regards

Excellent I noticed my bill was going up so rang and spoke to someone and they up graded me to the latest deal and saved me money I've been with them 9 years and never been as happy with there services. Although being a platinum vip I would have thought the rewards would have been a little more rewarding other then that 10 out of 10

Sky is just a cheap customer of BT - BT engineers hate Sky - call centre in Delhi India are poorly paid night shift workers reading from scripts - they have to call an outsourced BT call centre in Northern Ireland for an engineer - "problem on the line" never properly communicated- duplication of effort costs data bases threats to customer information on remote datbases - BT is a monopoly and the rest are just customers - all adverts about fibre optic broadband are lies and speeds are fake. WHY has a French Company bought 12% of BT shares?
