Account restricted but can’t call to contact them

Hello. Anybody got any idea how to contact sky when my accounts restricted so can't make phone calls, then the live chat says sorry you just call x number. Can't pay the full amount currently so just no idea, is there an email please?

Hi @Adammmm1  have you tried 150 from your sky mobile as that may still work ? There is no email. If you can't pay your bill by the normal direct debit then sky will try in again 10 days, if it's still not there then your service will be restricted. Sky don't accept promises to pay no matter what the CS may say.

@Adammmm1 
So if services are restricted Sky won’t reinstate services until you’ve paid what they believe you owe (regardless of any individual circumstances) and you’ve also set up a new continuous payment method.

Until you’ve done this any calls to Sky will only prompt you to make a full payment.

If your payment is two or more weeks overdue you will have to pay the next bill as well and if you’re in arrears for 56+ days Sky can fully terminate your subscription (but you’ll still owe the arrears). If this is part of a credit agreement purchase (mobile or Sky Glass for example) non payment can see the credit agreement cancelled at which point the full amount becomes due in one payment .

Restrictions of services are automatic and are only applied due to a missed payment/s. Skys agents can’t override the process even if you’re told otherwise. Sky don't allow payment plans on overdue live accounts, nor will they consider promises to pay on or by a certain date.

Once your full payment has cleared and is in Sky’s account your services should be reinstated, but this may not be instant. Any payment you make over a weekend or on a Bank Holiday won’t be processed until the following week.

You should be able to pay the bill and set up your direct debit via the MySky app or online using this link

You could try calling Sky on 150 but the chances are you will be asked to clear the outstanding amount on your bill first before you are able to talk to someone.
