Sky Broadband cancellation refund

[Mark832]

I cancelled my Sky Broadband on 2nd April, but was billed for a full month on the 10th April.  I assumed that I would receive the refund for this on the 10th May (10th being my billing date).  As yet I have not received it, but it is showing as credit on my account.  How do I receive the refund into my bank?

Refunds after cancelling should take about 6 weeks from your last day of connection however posts here do suggest it’s taking longer.

We can potentially help get it refunded within 3-5 working days via the Community Messaging Team on here if you wish. Let us know on this thread if you want to do that.

Before we can escalate it to Sky please confirm in your reply that the payment method is still active.

If you’ve already cancelled your payment method Sky can reinstate it, or get a back office team to raise a cheque to post to you but that obviously takes a lot longer.

I can confirm that my payment method is still active.

Please escalate this to Sky via the Community Messaging Team.  Thank you.

I’ve escalated your post to Sky and their Community Messaging Team should make contact with you later.

Look out for a post on this thread from one of the team inviting you to a private chat and then you should see a blue/red speech bubble at the bottom of your forum page. You’ll have 48 hours to click on it and start the private chat or it will close automatically. If you fail to respond to a chat reply within 48 hours the chat will again close down automatically even if your issue hasn’t been resolved. Replies from Sky aren’t instant so you’ll need to check the chat thread periodically.
