Reinstate
Hi there last night I contacted Sky to reinstate my services. I was told if I made a payment of £160, as a VIP customer they would switch my services back on. However once I had made this payment Sky still has not been switched back on??? Can you please organise for this to happen plz??

No we can't as we're just other customers here.
You'll need to contact Sky again.

You may have been misinformed there. I presume your arrears were in excess of the £160?
If your services have been restricted it will almost certainly be because of a missed payment. Sky won’t reinstate them until you’ve paid what you owe and you’ve also set up a new continuous payment method.
Restrictions of services are automatic and Skys agents can’t override the process, even if you’re told otherwise. Sky don't allow payment plans on overdue live accounts, nor will they consider promises to pay on or by a certain date.
If your payment is 2+ weeks overdue you will have to pay the next bill as well and if you’re in arrears for 56+ days Sky can fully terminate your subscription (but you’ll still owe the arrears).
If this is part of a credit agreement purchase (mobile or Sky Glass) non payment can see the credit agreement cancelled at which point the full amount becomes due in one payment .
Once your full payment has cleared and is in Sky’s account your services should be reinstated, but this may not be instant. Any payment you make over a weekend or on a Bank Holiday won’t be processed until the following week.
You should be able to pay the bill and set up your direct debit via the MySky app or online using this link
