@Jennie+hunter
The latest T’s and C’s explicitly state you can’t cancel when still in a minimum term deal unless Sky agree. If they agree you’ll have to pay the remainder of your discounted term.

What did you actually cancel on the app ?

When did this contract starts as they are usually for 24 months so it must have started earlier this year if you are in contract until 2028 ?

You said you cancelled did you get email confirming your cancellation and giving you a end date, How and when did send the equipment back as that not normally returned until the end of 31 dy notice period when sky then send you packaging and a return label to do so.

Did you cancel because of April price increase if so the only way you could cancel without a termination was following the instructions and ringing the number on notification email or letter within 30 days period. As you were still in minium term I don't think you could have been done on the app in your case.
