Has this happened to anyone else?

Hi, I decided to leave EE after 10 years and join SKY for my mobile as my broadband & TV are already with them.

Ordered an iPhone 17 on SKY website and it came the next day. Realised it was far too small and I wasn't going to like it (biggest mistake will deffo check next time) 

was still in cooling off so SKY said to return it, which I did do. Rang up and tried to exchange it for a 17 pro max, which is the phone I actually would like. Got declined straight away by the system-  I can see they have received my other phone back however it's still appearing on my account as an agreement at the minute.

I know it's not my credit score as I got accepted a couple of weeks ago when I originally ordered the 17.. just wondering if this has happened to anyone else and how long you had to wait until trying again?

By ordering an alternative device you are credit checked again!

Hello,

Thanks for your response, yeah I am aware.

i just mean my credit scores fine as they originally accepted me 2 weeks ago for the phone I've just sent back. I just want to simply exchange the phone to something else but it's rejecting me now.

so just wondering if anyone has had a similar problem and how long they had to wait before trying again.

a week, 2 weeks, a month etc.. I don't want to re-apply to soon.

This is all I get whenever I look at the mobile site, it's like sky don't want to sell anymore products as it's been 5 days of this happening now on both app and website
