@Aldidas  If they were being offering it Free then it's a scam and it wasn't Sky calling you.

 

Did you give them any account info?

Like you I'm a customer here, Sky Employees are clearly identified as such.

If they are offering iPads then it's absolutely a scam.

 

Samsung sometimes bundles cheaper tablets with expensive Galaxy phones as an online marketing promotion, but you'd never get a legitimate cold call about it.

 

The callers are trying to gain access to your Sky Mobile account so that they can order high-value hardware to your address: they then attempt to intercept this during or after delivery.
