    I really do think this has to be an ISP problem. Quite a few providers share technology and will send your data through the same servers to reach here.

    So if they're having problems which they've admitted they are, then it will cause problems for other internet providers using the same servers.

    I'm on a Linux machine, using Firefox and Virgin Media is my ISP. When i tried to view tournaments, bizarrely my browser was trying to force a connection to twitter.com which was also down. Twitter has just come back up and all of a sudden i can view tournaments again. These were the only 2 sites i had a problem with. Strange??

    If you have a problem such as this, & want it solved, there is little point in Posting it on the Community, that is not what it is here for, & almost never speeds resolution. Customer Care have not, do not, & never will, monitor the Community for Customer Complaints, the system does not work that way. as they have far faster & more time-effective routes to problem resolution.

    Contacting Customer Care, with a clear & concise explanation of the problem is far more effective. I would also strongly advise against using "FFF-IN" style comments or "SORT IT OUT SKY" when speaking with CC, too, it does nothing to help, quite the opposite, if you think about the psychology of people skills.

    See "Chat live", "e-mail us", or "call us" on this page.....

    Sky Poker try VERY hard to continually improve the software, & Customer Experience, & regret any problems that inevitably arise from time to time. Dealing with them in a rational & logical manner gets them sorted fastest, always.

    Thank you.

    I AM SORRY FOR HE FFF PART AND HAVE NOW TAKIN OFF, I DID PHONE C/CARE AND THEY SAID IT WAS TALK/TALK SERVER, NOW THIS IS WHERE I HAD A PROBLEM BECAUSE I`M ON BT BROADBAND BUT THEY STILL INSISTED IT WAS TALK/TALK, SO I POINTED OUT THAT OTHER PLAYERS WHERE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AND THEY WERE ALL DIFFERENT ISP.
    THE REASON I POSTED ON THIS THREAD WAS HOPING A SKY BOFFIN WOULD SEE ( EVEN IF MOVED TO TECH QUERIES) BUT WHEN I DO POST PROB UP IN TECH QUERIES NO-ONE SEEMS BOTHERED TO REPLY.
     
    AND AGAIN SORRY, I WAS WOUND UP BY GOING IN CIRCLES WTH C/CARE.

    Can't see the point in having this section of the community if sky do not, have not & never will use it...

    "Technical QueriesIf you have any problems or questions about the Sky Poker website or download software please post them here."

    TBH when i first started having problems the first thing I did was go to the technical queries part of the community. 

    I've not had any problems since Tuesday evening so hopefuly it's all sorted.

    NOBODY from the Sky Poker Management Team EVER monitor the Community at night, & they rarely do so during "working hours". It is the role of Customer Care, as has been pointed out on innumerable occasions, to deal with these problems, & you are strongly advised to contact them. They do NOT monitor this Poker Community, ever.

    There is a "Technical Queries" Board, but that is clearly NOT designed for time-precious problems.

    These are the facts, not "PIDDLE".

    Hi Mr Cube,

    There are a whole range of good reasons why the "Technical Queries" Board exists, but if someone has a time-precious problem late at night, posting in "Technical Queries" has never been the answer.

    I'm simply trying to point out, as I have hundreds of times before, that if someone has an urgent software or service problem, it is no good Posting it on the Community, which exists for a different purpose altogether.

    I can't force players to heed the advice I posted, but I'm just re-stating the facts, in an attempt to be helpful, & to ensure our Clients get the best possible service.

    Whilst I agree with this in instances where it is a major site issue, effecting a large number of players, there have been many times when I've had problems with my machine, or something on my computer making sky poker either run slowly, or not run at all.

    The geeksquad of Machka, acidman, noseybonk, scouse red and pokertrev, have all responded to a forum post of mine within 10/15 mins and improved/fixed the issue without any need for me to go through customer care etc.

    Often it's as simple as a firewall, adobe update, re-install the site, change internet settings bla bla bla, all the stuff I would never know about myself, that would appear blatantly obvious to semi-competent computer brains!

    Maybe an "ask the geeksquad" thread somewhere, theres normally 1 of those 5 online to help within a few mins.

    Tbf they do respond to forum posts anyway tho. (if they see them)

    It's always worth asking the geeksquad, especially if everyone else seems to be running fine.
