    Sky Have Listened To The Gamers

    "All

    After reviewing the sky forums sites, recent escalations from customers and after discussions with Marketing, please can you implement the following

    Should any customer be transferred to Tier 3 and request for their max delay levels to be decreased as a result of them using their broadband connection for Gaming, please arrange for this to be done. You should look to set their max delays at 8. Please ensure you leave the customer with a stable line after completing this."


    This is great news for all gamers, and a great decision from Sky. Well done!

    This is why I rate sky. What other companies react to customer opinion like that (and that quickly).

    Email, Gamers, sorted.

    Sky still need to sort - Sky Router firmware and also a temp username and password for those people who do not receive their router on time.

    We'll all have nothing to moan about soon
