Skytv Reviews

Channels on Sky TV keep repeating the same old content In europe they keep getting the latest episodes in the uk is the same old has beens To top the score some of the programs are dated from the 1970s And Sky TV is certainly Not Cheap Do those channels think that its OK to provide discarded content they bought cheap and keep repeating it Why is the British public except it

Received an email from Sky that my Contract is up for renewal and was asked to call to check out my new Contract I did this and on checking further Sky have tripled there prices I understand things have gone up but not as much as that Sky has become very greedy hence I have not renewed my contract

Moved into a new place in Novemeber and placed an order with sky We had an update about broadband being installed on the 16th of January which was a ridiculous but we waited it out Openreach came out and only did half of it and was unable to complete it Hear nothing for nearly a week to get an update saying theyve found a fault so that will need to be sorted before the installation is complete Another week later another update sayin an engineer is booked and our next update is on the 7th of February so 3 months waiting in total so we are cancelling Absolute joke avoid at all costs

I am wondering if Sky have furloughed so many workers they cannot give the service we are paying for They have changed Sky Q screen formatting so that it is useless on the smaller TVs in the bedrooms as the text is too small to read We do not all have cinema style screens It also takes longer to select from recordings due to silly repetitious selections being needed and this is the same for deletions I changed my mobile to Sky too and have had trouble getting them to enable data No help from Sky though as they are only serving certain people - but they are charging us all I am 69 10 months so do not quite qualify Can hardly leave them for TV - no virgin and limited Freeview in this area

My renewal just came up and I wasn t even informed instead of letting me know it was coming to an end I was hit with a bill of over 90 When I called I was told they don t inform when it ended and that was it I called back 4 times to negotiate a good deal even then I still feel it s way too high but renewed contract anyway as had no choice as can t get other companies in my area

It s so difficult to speak to them on the phone Have been paying them 120 each month for years Cut my services down but they made it hard work and it took an hour on the phone As soon as my contract is up I m off 20 years a customer and they treat you as a cash cow Their loss A parasitic company

Been with sky over 10 years now I can t really complaint about customer service Got sky glass before Christmas 2022 this TV was nothing but trouble from get go Hard to fix it on the stand putting on the wall was really finicky but we managed eventually Hated the smart wifi feature What a mess Now we just use it as a normal smart tv and sky HD box with satellite im trying to avoid sky q as I don t get on with it The TV doesn t want to turn on half the time need to unplug it and plug it again and wait until the tv decides to wake up And don t even get me started on the remote control I ve never had to change batteries in anything so often Every few days it needs new pair Not that we use it that much Just to turn on off and when using streaming apps but other than that it doesn t get touched We mostly use remote control for hd box didnt need to change batteries in that one since we got the glass TV I have a TV in my bedroom that s probably 15 years old and i owned it for 11 changed batteries probably 3 times The smart glass TV is just appalling Not worth the price One of my biggest mistakes ever

Total waste of money stick to sky Q I ve had nothing but trouble with it from the day I signed up to it wish I hadn t bothered Wouldn t recommend to anyone tried to change back to SkyQ but no joy

We were moving house and was told there wold be no fee as it was a house mover option and been with Sky for a good number of years I then found out I had to pay 25 for the engineer to come out I am not going to try contact them as with many reviews it is very difficult to do so I have also noticed they don t respond to any of the reviews on here That tells you all you need

I ll start with a positive The sky glass tv is a nice size and the picture is good However You can no longer save any programs you like to repeat watch Some of the apps like Apple TV you don t get the full app on sky glass a lot of the programs you get on your apps on your computer have a lot more content than on sky glass It regularly locks up and says you have no connection even though you definitely do The only way to get it back is to turn the power off at the wall and wait for a few seconds then turn it back on On the whole you are much better off staying with sky q until they have worked out all the big issues with the tv
