You're at least the third person today who's reported this. 

Unfortunately it's a long-standing problem with Unipart, Sky's hardware returns company, who don't properly log returns quickly enough. It's been happening for years and neither Sky nor Unipart seem to be able to fix it. 

All you can do is call Sky or wait for your post to be escalated so a Sky employee can assist.

@Johnny771 do you still have the proof of postage/tracking number for the return?

 

If you do we can escalate this to the Sky Messaging Team to get in contact with you. They can use the tracking ID to verify that Unipart (the third party who deal with returns for Sky) did receive and sign for the package and then update your account appropriately.

 

Unfortuantely this is a common issue as Unipart seem incredibly slow to actually update Sky on processed returns so that Sky can update people's accounts that they have received the returned items.
