It sounds like you've made an unnecessary manual payment.

 

If you have a continuous payment method set up (which the T's and C's state you should have), you never need to make a manual payment. Sky will always try to take payment from methods they hold on their records. Once the original planned payment has been processed a credit should appear on your Sky account for the amount you have overpaid.

 

This should automatically be used to pay your next bill so on that bill date no/less money should be taken from your account. I would suggest NOT making any manual payments unless requested to by Sky.

 

If you prefer, once your extra payment is showing as a credit, contact Sky who can arrange a refund within the standard 3-5 working days.

 

Either call, use Sky Assistant or perhaps use social media to initially make contact.

Re: 2 payments

I always make a manual payment so I know what money I have left over for the month. I have done this since I have had sky nearly a year. They have never took the direct debit because the account has always been paid. This is the first time they have done it

As stated the terms and conditions state you must have a set method of payment so Sky have taken payment by the method they have on record for your account.
