URGENT: No Installation Progress – Activation Due 29 May, Financial Penalty at Risk

Hi Sky Community,

I'm hoping someone can help escalate my broadband order urgently, as I'm facing a real financial risk if this isn't resolved quickly.

Here's my situation:

• Order confirmed 29 April 2026 – activation date given as 29 May 2026
• Order Reference: ORD9101

The problem is:

1. No Openreach engineer has visited to install the external fibre line. Nothing has happened externally at my property.
2. No follow-up contact from Sky since the original confirmation email.
3. I cannot track my order online – the Sky website shows nothing under my account.
4. My current provider's contract ends 5 June 2026. If Sky's service is not live in time, I face a £50 penalty charge for early exit.

With less than 10 days to activation and no sign of any installation activity, I'm very concerned this date will be missed.

Could someone please:
- Confirm my order is active and progressing
- Advise when Openreach will attend for the external line installation
- Confirm whether the 29 May activation date is still achievable

I'd appreciate an urgent response given the financial implications.

Thank you,
Bharat

As we are customers here who help each other I would give Sky a call and quote that order reference to them and ask them for an update in to what is happening with the order.
