Change my if word
I feel I have compromised my I'd word with Sky. I had a call asking my name address and I'd word from a Sky rep. He cut off after I gave the above details

Re: Change my if word
Do you mean your telephone password which Sky use to verify you're the account holder?
If you do, call Sky as suggested by @GD1 and when prompted for it say "forgotten it" or similar. Sky should be able to verify your identity as the account holder by other means and then set up a new telephone password with you.

Re: Change my if word
It's perhaps worth adding that with any calls from 'Sky' (especially unexpected calls) if the caller asks for your telephone password to confirm you're the account holder (which I would expect a genuine Sky agent to do) initially give an INCORRECT one on purpose. If the caller doesn't challenge it then you know it'll be a scam call.

Re: Change my if word
Or from any other business
Not clear what they stand to gain by compromising your sky account - access to an email account possibly to reset passwords on something more important?
