I had sky tv/broadband for 7 plus years. The free q hub is rubbish it overheads was on my forth router they try to offer me the upgraded router for 5 pounds per month but it a new 18 months contract which is a no for me. My bill was going up by 30 pounds so I cancelled my contract they still looking for more money I paid all my contract months.

I wouldn't even bother it's the worst Internet I've every experienced. I think the old dial up would be quicker. The Internet drops in and out even with a lan connection. They have been out to upgrade the router and it made no different. Complete pile of sh#t. Never get the average speed they promise and then they have the cheek to up there prices. Ducking jog on sky. I wouldn't even recommend them or wish them on my worst enemy. AVOID AT ALL COST

If I could put 0 I would you are a mo ey grabbingfraudulent company that think you can Intemidate your customers into paying you late payment fees for contracts you automatically renew by not giving any access to cancelling them before they begin. And then try send debt collectors after it. Well you have met your match I will take you to caught if I need be you are nothing more than a bully and should be ashamed of yourselves. Sky is not worst the hassle of something goes wrong buy virgin or any other competitor

We've been at our new home for just 1 month, but my family all have used Sky since I was a kid and they always go back to them. So far at our house the broadband is more reliable, faster even though it is not fibre, than our last supplier which was fibre (to cabinet)! We get 150MBs as opposed to the 50MBs we had previously with Vdfn. Our engineer (Bakary) was fast and helpful with my questions. I have no complaints about Sky, which feels like a first for me as we have had a lot of trouble with companies we use this last year. Will stick with them as long as they do not hike price.

Sky ru a lyaltiy program whih cthey like to tell you makes you a valued customer, well as a loyal customer of more than 20 years they made little to no effort to resolve issues with our highly unreliable fibre broadband - download speed of 49mbps upload 0.11mbps - how is anyone supposed to operate a modern home using this speed of upload? Sky were disinterested, and almost rude, their advisor telling me to make sure i returned their equipment or i would be charged - well they are welcome to it as it doesn't work ! AVOID if you can

I've been with Sky for ~8 years. Unlike many people here my connection has been always very reliable and as fast as the cable/attenuation/physics permitted.
However, one which always bothered me big time with them is that after 18 months they would always try to move you to the "no-discount" rate which nobody anywhere charges as it's ~30% more expensive. Even as a "veteran/platinum" customer I'm treated like an fresh imbecile while new customers are get cheaper deals they my current contract.
I've always been able to negotiate "discounts" to keep my bills pretty much identical year-on-years. But this year is the first time Sky isn't will to negotiate. Which means 30% increase. Which means Bye Bye!!!

Worst internet in the world. Not getting what we pay for. They won’t send anyone out to check the problem and constantly blame it on the weather even on clear days. Avoid at all costs.

AVOID, do not use this company, the voice hub is worse than useless and I have lost 1000's of £'s worth of business. You can not tell if it is working or not other than not receiving calls like normal!

Worst Internet experience I would not recommend this company to anyone. I am supposed to have super fast broadband for streaming ect. It doesn't work to the standard that sky advertises. I am coming to the end of my contract in march, I have agreed to a new contract and a upgraded my broadband with sky. However after my experience especially over the past few weeks I will be cancelling that contract and switching to plusnet who have offered me better wifi for a much cheaper deal. No matter how much loyalty I have shown sky for the past 4 years I still get provided with the same old poor service.

Horrendous support. Sky makes is almost impossible to reach them for problems as they have this annoying bot that takes you in loops- both when calling and online. The promises made on their speed are a blatant lie and then despite guarantee to not charge if a certain speed hapoen - full price is charged!

Started my program on Feb with an advertised price of 25/month, after 2 days I receive an email for an increase to 29 pounds/month. I understand the annual price increases on April but this is misleading and frustrating

Writing this after my hub has broken again thats 2 in 4 months when it works broadband isn't that bad get reasonable speeds. Unfortunately broken twice and need engineer visit both times. Moved house 4 months ago and because my wife is now studying online decided to get fibre Unfortunately sky was not a good option and we have had to get a hot spot account just so my wife can still do her lessons. I wouldn't recommend sky to anyone and im now wishing I had read all the reviews on this site

Oh dear. 22 years with Sky. Diamond VIP: none of it means a thing. I have wasted over 3 hours on the phone trying to resolve an issue started with one of their advisors putting me into an unsuitable contract. I’m afraid our relationship is over and I am now referring the matter to small claims court. I am not sure why they now have such an unreliable customer service team. The representatives all appear very helpful but promises of return calls fail to materialise and undertakings to offer a resolution are not honoured. I would urge anyone with similar issues to take legal action to at least air the matter.

Had to get unlimited data on my phone as the WiFi keeps dropping out, cat 6 cable hard wired direct to hub is perfectly fine so it must be the hub boxes themselves that are rubbish, got conned into paying an extra £5 a month for sky boost but this does nothing, I will be moving to another provider when my contract runs out, counting down the days

I am paying over £32 a month, i am supposed to get 20 megabyte's which continually keeps dropping down to between 1 & 3 megabyte's. Which makes it impossible to do the trading online as i need a steady fast connection. If you are looking for a reliable speed and connection i would not use SKY Broadband!

Terrible service, new customers receive a better price than their long time customers. If you have a problem with the price they say they 'cannot' talk to you about it until the bill that you are unhappy with is paid.. shocking!

Absolute **** told that we can have upwards of 50 devices connected to the hub without slow down and it's cutting off half of the 16 devices we have on granted we use a lot of bandwidth but we told them that we have a lot of devices connected and need more bandwidth when we signed up so now we have 7 or 8 devices that just can't access the internet and to top it off the ones that can might aswell not be connected because out of the 30 mbs we are paying for we get a consistent 400 KBS

I’ve tried 3 times to get broadband with Sky. Despite receiving a text to say “great news, your broadband will be connected today by midnight”, I’ve had to call the next day to say it’s not connected then someone telling me I can play a new order in 48 hours and it will hopefully be connected one week after I place the order. Why are they not rectifying the issues? Why keep going in circles. Avoid at all costs!!

I have been with Sky Broadband for a number of years even after I stopped subscribing to the TV package. Never had any problems with the broadband reliability, the router gave good wifi coverage through out my house and a fair way into my garden. Nice to be able to surf while relaxing in the sun.
I've had very little to do with the Customer Service as everything worked. When I had queries the staff were helpful.
I moved away from Sky when their packages became pricy for the speed being offered compared to competitors.

The Wi-Fi is constantly buffering and then the streams are alway freezing I’ve got fibre and that’s not cheap so we want the fastest. However from the same week we have had problems and called customer support but the problem still not fixed. This service is paid for every month and does not cross reference correct.

Absolutely abhorrent.
It should be embarrassing just how shockingly and horrifically bad the poor excuse for an internet connection that Sky call 'WiFi' is. If you have a Sky TV box and use it at the same time the already poor internet connection ceases to do ANYTHING. It took me two days to install a 2.4MB file...
There are multiple times every day where I am tempted to take the router and break it over my knee out of pure anger from the fact that Sky have the audacity to actually charge people money for this abhorrent so called 'Internet Connection' - to be honest I don't think breaking the router in half over my knee would do anything to make the connection worse. Spare yourself the money and the headache and choose another provider for the sake of your sanity. Sky is shockingly bad and MAJOR improvements need to be made before Sky can realistically have the ability to call this WiFi.

Sky broadband made 2 appointments with me that we both missed without a call or text to apologise, costing me hundreds due to waiting in and time off work due to a fault on there broadband service.
This has now been going on for 2 weeks. No calls at all from sky for the past 2 weeks to give updates despite me having to call multiple times a day. Partner works from home which has caused massive issues.
Communication with Sky is so poor and I believe they have broken GDPR laws as they refuse to accept they sent appointment by text but the text sent knew I was with Sky the time and date of the appointment if they didn't send it the information must have been passed on by them.
Unhappy is an understatement.

Paying for 59MBPS, receiving 4MBPS... Scamming and unreliable. Reached out and was told to change brand. How can we be paying for 59MBPS and not even get 10% of the promised speed???
