Order number 12 digits?

Val86 — Sun, 07 Jun 2026 12:15:53 GMT

I ordered Sky Broadband a week ago. It was a referral from a friend. Installation is tomorrow. I've received an email from Sky saying last chance to claim £100 for referral. It's asking me to enter my 12 digit order number. The order number on the email they sent me confirming the order has 3 letters and 4 numbers. There's nothing else from them with an order number on. Can anyone advise

Are you sure it isn't asking for your 12 digit account number and not an order one ?

When the chat bubble does appear you will need to respond to it as soon as you can or it will be closed if there is no response within 48 hours. To start the conversation just type in it.

I hadn't received my customer number at the time., the only number I had was the order number. Once everything was set up I received the customer number. Thanks for everyone's help.
