Re: Paid bill and direct debit still due
Got through surprisingly quickly to Sky and the customer service person told me to cancel the direct debit to stop the amount coming out.
They told me that I don't really need to set up another direct debit instruction as I've been paying it manually without issue for over a year.

Re: Paid bill and direct debit still due
Well that is contrary to the terms and conditions you agreed to so I'd be very wary of doing that.

Re: Paid bill and direct debit still due
I would say that is pretty poor advice because should you do that and the payment is taken and Sky will try again 10 days later you could find your services are suspended.

Re: Paid bill and direct debit still due
Seeing as my account would be at zero balance with nothing owed it would be pretty poor of them to suspend my services.
In fact I think it would be quite funny if they did suddenly send me an email warning me that if I didn't pay zero then they would suspend my broadband.
I assume they record all calls anyway 🙂

Re: Paid bill and direct debit still due
@Chris11521 It's quite common on here that we hear of customers receiving the information they want to hear from cs agents rather than the actual truth of the matter
and we end up having to give the correct advice
I concur with both @caesarome and @Daniel0210 that the advice given to you in this instance is totally inaccurate
