Tracking shows item delivered on Monday November 6th, I got the text the Friday week November 17th so based on your information is possibly jus a timing thing 🤞 Thank you


@SmilingB could be just a timing thing if you get another text requesting you rerturn the boxes etc then come back and we can escalate this to Sky for you

Re: Returning equipment

I have the same issue. I followed the link to Royal Mail site to get a returns label well ahead of time (in my own recycled Amazon box) and the postman collected on the 16th November, and it says it was delivered on the 19th.

 

Called Sky and because their system hasn't acknowledged it I'm in limbo (they've had it for almost 2 weeks!)

 

I asked if I could send proof early to avoid charges and additional effort / calls, and was told I could not. Ridiculous

Returns are taking 2+ weeks to be processed. Are you being chased for the return?

@Andrew116 

What has prompted your post on here, has Sky told you that you haven't and if so do you still have proof of posting ?

Re: Returning equipment

Is there an email address we can send the proof of postage and tracking info to. I returned equipment almost 2 weeks ago on the 48 hour service Sky sent. It is still showing as at a post office hub. So I want to send Sky the details. Can't find an email address to send them to.

Are you being chased for the return - maybe suggesting charges being applied?

Re: Returning equipment

I have moved house and cancelled my subscription and received my return box. BUT the equipment is stuck in storage due to a delay in the house move. I have explained that I will return the equipment in the next few weeks but I am receiving threatening texts that I will be charged for not returning the equipment when I have specifically explained the situation on the phone. How do I prevent the charges being applied (as I expect the texts are automated and the computer does not take into account individual and specific circumstances)? Thanks.

@Andrew681 not sure you can avoid the charges in these circumstances although any charges are normally refunded once the boxes are returned but I have escalated this to sky to see if there is anything they can do

Re: Returning equipment

I have just been sent a email saying I will be charged £52 for not sending back my sky mini box?? I was very meticulous in making sure EVERY item was returned and still have my proof of postage from the post office. Where can I email my proof of postage to?

@Derek20 

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:
https://community.sky.com/t5/Did-you-know/Escalating-a-post-to-a-Sky-expert/ba-p/3711147


When the chat bubble does appear you will need to respond to it as soon as you can.
This isn't a live chat so replies are not instant.
