Account still restricted after payment
Hi
I paid my streaming bill yesterday (issue with switching over to sky pass and direct debit not being set up) but my account is still restricted.
When will this be lifted?

Re: Account still restricted after payment
@MC1813
Sky won’t reinstate services until you’ve paid what they believe you owe (regardless of any individual circumstances) and you’ve also set up a new continuous payment method.
Until you’ve done this any calls to Sky will only prompt you to make a full payment.
If your payment is two or more weeks overdue you will have to pay the next bill as well and if you’re in arrears for 56+ days Sky can fully terminate your subscription (but you’ll still owe the arrears).
Once your full payment has cleared and is in Sky’s account your services should be reinstated, but this may not be instant. Any payment you make over a weekend or on a Bank Holiday won’t be processed until the following week.
You should be able to pay the bill and set up your direct debit via the MySky app or online using this link
