It's one of a number areas having problems with their broadband.
Twitter uses in Leicestershire have reported issues accessing the internet all afternoon, with some without coverage since this morning (2nd August).
Sky's Help Team acknowledged they were aware of issues impacting customers in Leicester but it seems they are not just limited to those within the city.
One person in Whitwick tweeted,"Internet has been down for hours in Leicestershire! What's going on! Call centre thinks I need an engineer, sounds like you need one."
Others have reported problems in Hinckley.
Sky said they were, 'investigating the issue.'
