Your services are currently being restricted when trying to upgrade mobile

[KellyThompson]

Hi 

Trying to upgrade my mobile and getting the error - Your services are currently being restricted There is an outstanding action on your account which is resulting in your services being restricted. Find out how to remove these restrictions.

There is a button underneath to reinstate my services which i click on and start again but keep going round in circles 

The only thing i can think of is there was an old swap that was cancelled but this phone has now been fully paid off

@KellyThompson 

I take it your phone is not restricted in anyway so you can use it as normal ?

[KellyThompson]

Yep , the phone is fine

To get you some help with this I have escalated your post to the Sky Messaging team who should be in touch with you regarding this via a blue/red chat bubble which will appear at the bottom of this page. It can take up to a few hours to be contacted via this.

This link explains how this works so you will need to respond to the chat bubble at the bottom of the page when it appears by typing it it to start the chat:

When the chat bubble does appear you will need to respond to it as soon as you can or it will be closed if there is no response within 48 hours. To start the conversation just type in it.
This isn't a live chat so replies may not be instant.

Hi - I also have this problem, and was LIED to by Sky Support saying there was/is a bug (?) in the software and was going to be fixed in 1 to 2 hours - this was on 24/12/2024 - so looks like it's still a problem.

We are upto date with all our payments - Sky had better sort this as 2 accounts are easily moved to competitors.

I'm getting the same when trying to look at phone upgrades and adding an iwatch to the account. We have 3 sims on the account and all payments are up to date.
