Billing Dispute & Formal Complaint

Account Details: [Your Account Number]

Issue: Service wrongly cancelled due to unallocated payments.

Summary of Evidence:

Proof of Payment: I have two successful payments from January shown on my bank statement (one for Broadband, one for TV).
Transaction ID / UNP Reference: The reference number for these payments is: [Insert your UNP number here].
Financial Loss: Because Sky failed to credit these payments to my account, I have been pushed £9.99 overdrawn and my services have been cut off.

Required Actions:

Locate the funds using the UNP reference provided.
Reinstate all services immediately.
Waive any and all reconnection fees.
Apply a credit to my account to cover my £9.99 overdraft fee and the loss of service.

In case you're not aware you haven’t contacted Sky by posting on here. This is a customer ▶️ customer discussion forum where we try to help other customers.

@icemanx23 did you make the payments manually, as if you did that may be the problem. The T&Cs required a direct debit or card payment to be setup on your account which will automatically take the payment on your payment date. When you make a manual payment, even if it is before the billing date, as the automated collection is already scheduled, the manual payment would end up as a credit on your account for future bills instead of paying the current one.

Yes, I do pay by direct debit, but it wasn't taken out. But I don't know why. Please stop trying to use this as an excuse

@icemanx23

If a direct debit fails Sky will try again within 10 days so it is only after a second failed attempt will your account be restricted.

You have said that it wasn't taken so have you spoken to your bank about this ?

I owe you nothing as you can see that everyone that has posted here doesn't work for Sky.

@icemanx23 have you asked your bank? Looks like they've reversed the payments for some reason.

Note we're customers here, not Sky customer services.
