If you have had your current number for more than 12 months just call Sky and request a new sim (which will come with a new but almost certainly recycled number) and once you are back in the UK call again and get them to cancel your current sim.

If you haven't had it 12+ months Sky won't change it unless you're receiving threats etc which have been reported to the police and you have a police reference number.

Are you not a current Sky mobile customer, if not what happens when you supply your current mobile number ?
