Account take over
Hi all
Just checked my emails and just noticed 2 days ago I revieved acouple of emails from sky to change my password then to enable 2fa then to change my email address.
So my account has been taken over, I went to sky website for help all it gives you is a number to call. I would preferred an email address and a call back it needed.
I am no longer with sky and it is a old account that is strangely still active years after I left them. My concern is only that my old card details and personal information that it contains and what they can do with sky in my name.
If anyone has a email address for me to raise this with sky directly that would be great.
Other wise I'm forced to ring and more than likly be on hold for hours.

Re: Account take over
If your card on that account has expired then they will not be able to do what they usually do and that is to order a mobile device and have the account holder pay for it as per this:
