Change address for sky mobile account

I have been trying to change the address listed for my sky mobile account for ages and cannot get it changed. My phone was stolen and I am trying to order a new SIM card but my address did not get changed when I moved, only my broadband and landline address was changed. So when I order a new SIM card it's delivered to my old address. 

 

Online tells me to phone but the automated system does not recognise what I want done and keeps trying to set me up an home move which is not what I need. Why is it so difficult to change an address??? Most places you can do this online I'm two minutes, instead of going round in circles with an automated system. Pleas help or I may have to cancel the account and set up a new one and loose all my saved data etc

@BenB19 
I’ve escalated your post to Sky and the Messaging Team may get in touch with you later.

Look out for a blue/red speech bubble at the bottom of your forum page. Once that appears you have 48 hours to click on it and join the private chat or it will close automatically. If you fail to respond to each chat reply within 48 hours the chat will again close down automatically even if your issue hasn’t been resolved. Replies from Sky are not instant so you’ll need to regularly check the chat thread.

Re: Change address for sky mobile account

I'm having the exact same problem. Can't get it sorted over phone as I can't seem to get through to the right people. My household address is correct but my mobile address is an old address. Can't purchase a new phone until this is sorted. Please help!
