@Andrew240  No one from  Sky can call you back in response to a community post from an unlinked account, no one here knows who you are or your contact details.

 

Posting "0800 number" isn't much to give the community to go on so no one can say of it was Sky or not.

Like you I'm a customer here, Sky Employees are clearly identified as such.

Sky do make outgoing calls from an 0800 number, but like any number it can be spoofed.

@Andrew240 

When you asked, did they ask you for your telephone password, if they did the trick is to give them the wrong one because if it was from Sky they would tell you that it was wrong.

If it's the number here, it might be. But beware scammers can spoof the number to make it look genuine.
