Charged for something i never received

I Decided to buy the iphone 17 pro max off of Sky paying monthly and i had to pay €88 upfront everything was fine until a day later i got an email my order was cancelled so i tried again paying another €88 for this phone which once again was cancelled.

I expected to receive a refund shortly , but clearly not as it has been over 10 days with no contact from sky.

@Larissaocy
It’s possible you may have failed one of the required credit check(s). For a sim deal it’s just a soft credit check, for a device there’s also an enhanced check. Any emails which confirm or cancel the order sometimes arrive out of sequence. See this link for Skys guidance ~

Be aware that if you keep trying to order the device this could further impact your credit score. If you contact Sky they would be able to confirm that’s the reason your order was cancelled but not why you failed the credit check in the first place as they are not allowed to view your credit record. You would have to sign up to a credit reference agency like Experian or Equifax, which would give you access to your credit record.

Also perhaps check that Sky have the correct spelling of your name.

Any upfront payment you’ve made should be refunded after about 14 days but recent posts suggest it’s taking a bit longer in which case you’ll need to contact Sky to chase it up.
