Probably a prelude to a scam.

That is highly likely to be a scam as they will offer you something like a 40% discount then they will ask for your login details so they can order a phone or tablet from it that you would then be paying for.
Next time you get such a call just hang up without talking to them.

Re: phone call from sky
With any calls from 'Sky' (especially unexpected calls) if the caller asks for your previously agreed telephone password to confirm you're the account holder (which I would expect a genuine Sky agent to do) initially give an INCORRECT one on purpose. If the caller doesn't challenge it then you know it'll likely be a scam call.
