Beware, I had a call from Sky Assured. It's a scam. Once I started to question him he rang off.

Just hand a call from Sky Maintenance saying my maintenance contract had expired. I said I didn't have a contract and they insisted I did. I told them I would phone Sky direct to check this and they said I could do that and they terminated the call. Definitely a scam.

Today I received a very assertive phone call telling me I took out a mandatory Sky Maintenance Contract and it was due for renewal today. She knew my post code and said information had been sent out in March to which I had not responded. She said there would be a financial penalty if I didn't renew. I told her I had no contract and was recording the call. I aske d her to send me the paperwork again and she said she couldn't as today was the last chance to renew. In the end she got fed up with my challenging her and hung up. She was very convincing but how did she know my post code and full address. A little concerning.

Just called me ~ out of the blue ~ female offers me 1 year or 2 year renewal, with discounts on my 'current' maintenance for Sky. Trouble was the figure she quoted me that I was paying by Direct Debit was way out, when I pointed this out she had an answer -taxes etc. NOTE she confirmed that this company is offering me £100 for 12 months or £160 for 24 months but would take FULL payment immediately. I said goodbye & hung up. The telephone no 0131 xxxxxxxxxxx is live & when dialed took me to Television Maintenance. So not really a scam, but a cold call selling ploy trying to get more cash out of me in one go than my DDs.
