Re: Account blocked due to fraud
Don't bother looking at the section about Programming Complaints. Click on one of the 4 contact options and more information will appear further down the page.

Re: Account blocked due to fraud
I’m in a similiar situation. Had a new phone arrive which had fault software. Called sky who sent me a new one. BUT, instead of replacing the faulty one the guy started a whole new contract. The next day the new phone arrived but was blocked by fraud within 2 hours. This was over a week ago. Spoken to loads of people who have each on seperaye days said it'll be sorted within 24 hours. 8 days later still blocked.
please help

We won't know what you've tried already.
