When is this issue going to be fixed Sky?

The Openreach target for domestic broadband support is two working days: unfortunately Christmas Day, Boxing Day and then Saturday/Sunday won't count.

@elainet
You aren’t contacting Sky here. This is a customer ▶️ customer discussion forum where we try to help other customers.

As pointed out, Sky usually quote 2 WORKING DAYS as a potential fix time due to the service level agreement in the UK between ISPs and Openreach for fixing a fault. Openreach claim to be successful within that timeframe in about 85% of cases.

Some repairs take longer, for example when a pole or cabinet has been damaged or Openreach / City Fibre need to dig the road up (after getting permission from the local council).

▪️

This link explains the Ofcom agreed auto compensation scheme which Sky operates for when there is a TOTAL loss of Sky Broadband or Sky Talk for UK customers.
https://www.sky.com/help/articles/auto-compensation

If you have a total loss of service and it isn’t fixed after two full WORKING days from when Sky are notified of the fault, you will become eligible for it.

From Ofcom’s website:~
If your broadband or landline service stops working, you will have to report the fault to your provider. If the service is not fixed after two full working days, you would not need to ask for compensation or contact your provider again, as your provider has systems in place that mean you will start receiving compensation automatically if the repair takes too long.

This auto compensation is applied 30 days after the fault has been repaired and will come in the form of a credit appearing on your Sky account (from 01/04/25 the new rates are £9.98 per day)

▫️There is no equivalent scheme in place for customers in the Republic of Ireland.
▫️There is no automatic compensation for TV services affected by a broadband problem.
▫️Sky broadband being discussed here is a domestic service therefore whilst it's fine for customers who work from home to use it for that purpose they won't receive additional or quicker support.

@elainet You do not say if it is also an area wide fault or just your connection, if you have informed sky or not as be the case?

Yes I have contacted them sending an engineer out Sky also mentions contacting Open reach so probably cables under the ground need investigation. I'm not the only one impacted from the amount of noise about it on Facebook

@elainet Good chance then it's an area fault to be dealt with by the supplier!
