Recieving ALOT of phone calls from Sky

Hello. 
Over the last month i have recieved around 20 phone calls from Sky saying they have promotions on and would i like to upgrade. 
Is this actually Sky or is it a scam? 

 

I always block the number straight after but then it is always a different number to ring back a few days later. 

If it is Sky please stop!

Many calls are scam callers, even if they were genuine Sky would not know who you are from a community post.

Like you I'm a customer here, Sky Employees are clearly identified as such.

Based on having Sky mobiles since 2018 and luckily not having such calls I would suggest most if not all are scams. Unfortunately there's little you or Sky can do to prevent them.

The fact they are using multiple different numbers suggests that these might be scammers that are trying to get access to your details.

Chances are they're scams. These usually offer generous discounts on your contract but they're after your account details. If they ask then it's recommended to give false details, if they accept these then it's a scammer.
