I lost my partner 11 weeks ago and haven't paid any bills and fell behind with everything.. now I've been restricted and can't afford the £313 they are requesting. Is there anything I can do to be reinstated by paying half now and half in two weeks?

Posted by a Superuser, not a Sky employee. Find out moreSorry for your loss @Morgs24 Before they reinstate your services I'm afraid you will have to pay what you owe and also set up a new continuous payment method. If your payment is two or more weeks overdue you will also have to pay the next bill as well. If your account remains in arrears for 56 days Sky may terminate the account.
If you can’t pay all now you can pay what you want, when you want, but until the bill is paid off in full Sky will not reinstate your services. Sky don't allow payment plans on overdue live accounts, nor will they consider promises to pay.
Once your payment has cleared and is in Sky’s account your services should be reinstated, but be aware this may not be instant, especially at a weekend when the banks are closed.
Also, when your services are restricted any attempt to call Sky will result in you being prompted to pay what you owe first.
