Hi , I'm so angry . I started receiving emails from Sky saying they see I want to join Sky TV. I said I'm always with Sky 13 years and I'm fine with my 2 boxes. The Sky person called Suzanna kept emailing back to tell me to confirm that its me . Long story short they cancelled my account and closed it down . I rang twice today . They said ring back on Monday, I said that is Christmas day!!! I can't believe it. Its the weirdest thing ever . I'm woth then 13 years and I never requested a cancellation. I've no Sky TV all Christmas now. My bills are paid up to date. In fact I'm really upset.

I agree the full story may shed a bit more insight into what has actually happened as this seems a bit strange.

Mark this is the full story . I started to receive emails from a sky girl called suzanna asking me if I wanted new services .I said I'm fine with my 2 boxes. She kept asking me to confirm that it's me. It was the weirdest thing ever. St first I thought it was a scammer till I rang them .
I then received more emails saying I'd to confirm that it was me, I went onto my sky app... confirmed my details .
Suddenly I received a text saying they've cancelled my sky and sent out packaging to post back my sky boxes. I'm with them 13 years (vip) lol.... I rang again nearly crying to put my sky back on , the girl said she can't because we closed down your account completely. I was like what ????, why? She said call back Monday..I said that's Xmas day. My bills are up to date and I never requested any of my sky to be cancelled. Its the weirdest most horrible thing sky could do. Il be on the phone to them first thing Wedbesday and il be demanding compensation of some description. No tv all Christmas for NO reason.

Posted by a Superuser, not a Sky employee. Find out moreI'd suggest raising a complaint with them as well. It's best to not do this on the phone with customer services but to contact the complaints department via one of the four methods outlined on the following page: https://www.sky.com/help/articles/how-to-make-a-complaint
They usually do thorough investigations and look at the history of comms associated with your account to see exactly what happened and where the fault occurs. From what I've heard they generally offer reasonable compensation where they have evidence that something or someone at Sky was at fault.

Posted by a Superuser, not a Sky employee. Find out more@sanlaf you're right, it's very weird, and I have no idea why Sky would have cancelled your service. I can only repeat others' suggestion to raise a complaint. Sky are contactable today.
