Need a new main phone socket installing
I need a new main phone socket installing. The current socket is very old and the connections are faulty which are causing issues for my broadband. I work from home for CityFibre. This issue is causing problems for my SKY Glass TVs and internet.

Re: Need a new main phone socket installing
What exactly is faulty about the connections? A master socket should have all wiring behind a faceplate and usually shouldnt be touched so it would be difficult for it to affect your connection.

Re: Need a new main phone socket installing
Where the BT jack goes into the socket from my router...something has happenned behind (in the scoket) as the jack ins't clicking into place. I've had a local IT engineer to take a look this morning and he said I should contact Sky who will probably send Openreach. I work for CityFibre (who now have a contract with Sky) and was hoping for a number to call for an engineer!

You'd need to call Sky and report the fault. If they see your connection as unstable enough then they should send an engineer to look at it.

How do I request/book an engineer? I can't find an online form or phone number!

150 from your Sky landline or go to https://sky.com/help then go to the bottom of the page and look for the number under the 'Need more help?' banner.
