I really haven’t posted in ages. Mainly because I got bored and partly because i didn’t think anyone cared. However, I’ve been so annoyed with Sky for various reasons recently that I thought it worth a post. If only so that just a few people take notice and heed my warnings.
First of all, Sky Broadband sucks. Fact! It drops randomly far too often. It’s slow even though I’ve been forced to upgrade to a higher costing package. And above all, I have no choice of router I can use - the one they gave me is basic with little to no features, and I can’t change because the username and password are locked into their router and they won’t give them to me.
Secondly, recently, I have been using Sky Player. “Fine” you may think - which it would be were it not for the constant weird resets telling me I’m using a different PC even though I’m not, and the inexplicable and un-timely removal of shows I’ve been watching. For example, I started watching The Dresden Files, literally days ago, and yet with no warning, and even though all the episodes still said “free”, were removed from the player. It wasn’t even as if I could pay to watch them. they just went. Plus, it told me I had to be a ‘variety pack’ subscriber to view those episodes - which I am.
Sky Broadband != reliable or cheap.
Sky Player != good or fair or reliable.
Sort it out Sky - you take enough of my money!
