Waiting for refund

Luke951 — Mon, 05 Aug 2024 19:07:56 GMT

Hi, my broadband was cancelled and ended nearly 2 months ago. Shortly afterwards I received my final bill which showed they owe me £31.53. I haven't received a refund for this and can't find an email address to contact them by to complain

@Luke951
Refunds can take up to 6 weeks from your last day of connection providing the payment method is still active on your Sky account. This will be longer if the payment method has been cancelled as Sky will have to manually raise a cheque and post it to you.

If you’d rather, we can help get it refunded within 3-5 working days via the Messaging Team on here. Let us know on this thread if that’s what you want to do but we need confirmation it’s currently showing as a credit on your Sky account.

@Luke951
I’ve escalated your post to Sky and their Messaging Team should contact you tomorrow.

You need to watch out for a post from one of the team inviting you to a private chat and then you should see a blue/red speech bubble at the bottom of your forum page. You’ll have 48 hours to click on it and start the private chat or it will close automatically. If you fail to respond to a chat reply within 48 hours the chat will again close down automatically even if your issue hasn’t been resolved. Replies from Sky aren’t instant so you’ll need to check the chat thread fairly regularly.

Yes £60.20 in creditors, says it will be taken off my next bill, but as haven't been a customer for 6 weeks this isn't possible.

@JamesTC1
I’ll escalate your original post to Sky when it’s more than the obligatory ten minutes old and their Messaging Team should contact you later.
