@Paula51  Sky don't allow transfer of account ownenership, so either your ex will need to cancel and return all the relevant equipment then you need to sign up in your name, or leave it as it is.

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

@Paula51  Sky doesn't allow account ownership changes, your ex partner is liable for the account and wouldn't have to cancel and return any loan equipment before you can sign yourself

@Paula51 

Sky doesn't allow such changes I'm afraid. Your ex would have to cancel (unless in a discounted deal preventing that without Skys agreement ) and return all loaned equipment. Then you'll be able to join up and new equipment will be sent out.
