Change the account holder

Hi I used to share a property with my partner and took the sky broadband account out in my name. I've since moved out and I'm looking to just put the account in her name. I hope you can help

Yup, you can't.  If it's in your name then it remains in your name until you cancel it.

I am just another Sky customer and my views are my own even if you don't like the answers

@Byron1 

Account holder names can not be changed so the only way around this would be to cancel then the other person to sign up to Sky as a new customer in their name. This will mean returning equipment back to Sky.

@Byron1  Sky doesn't permit account ownership changes 

 

you would have to cancel and send back any loan equipment back then they can sign up in their own name
