The Down Detector website was on fire earlier today, as there was a problem with Sky Broadband's internet service, with customers and users claiming that it is down. There are three main services to Sky Broadband's offers, including broadband internet, satellite television service, and home telephone, with its customer service on fire via social media because it remains inaccessible.
Sky Group is one of Britain's top media and telecommunications conglomerates, also providing various services, including the internet, but many complain of its regular problems in connections.
