As stated you can't transfer an account like that. You will need to look at cancelling but remember, if your minimum term has ended you’ll need to give Sky the required 31 days notice. And… the latest T’s and C’s explicitly state you can’t cancel when still in a minimum term deal unless Sky agree. (If they agree you’ll have to pay the remainder of your discounted term).
See the below link
https://www.sky.com/help/your-account/my-account-and-subscription/cancelling/cancel-my-subscription/...
Select ‘No, I still need help’ at the bottom of the link which will lead to contact methods.
(Make sure the flag in the bottom right corner is the correct one ie; UK or ROI).
UK customer ~ It may include a phone number, an email link and also a Message Us option (which is normally available between 9am and 7.30pm).
ROI customer ~ there’s a text option (Monday-Friday 9am to 4:30pm) otherwise it’s only by calling Sky Ireland or writing in.
If you successfully cancel you should receive an acknowledgment email from Sky.
If you are cancelling Sky Q, return packaging will be sent out near the end of your notice period. It’s important that you obtain proof of posting and keep it safe and indefinitely.
Once all the above is done your wife / ex can order a Sky TV account in her name.

Re: Seperation
@SeanBuckham Sky don't allow transferring of accounts, if you're outside a minimum term you will need to cancel your tV services, you would also need to call Sky to change your address.

Please note I only provide help on the main forums and not via PM, PM's are switched off.

Re: Change
You asked this yesterday. The answer hasn't changed so no need for a new thread.
