Hi, I'm abroad and need to call Sky Ireland customer support from here to ask for a change on my Sky TV package.
I cannot get to any way to contact them, I managed to get a UK phone number from abroad but not an Irish one.
no luck via messages either.
Is anybody able to help here?
thank you

Posted by a Superuser, not a Sky employee. Find out more@MarianaGo can you not change the TV packages using the My Sky app? Sku Ireland only have an 0818 number which doexnt seem accessible from outside the country. Unfortunately the forum escalation team cant upgrade or downgrade packages via chat.

@MarianaGo are you using Sky equipment outside Ireland or just happen to be outside Ireland on holiday or business?
If you call Sky and they identify you are using their equipment outside they are likely to terminate your services🤔
Best to wait until you're home to make changes😉

I'm outside of Ireland for holiday and realised I forgot to remove a sport package I don't need anymore from my profile. If I wait for when I come back I'll have to pay at least one more month and I would like to avoid it.

Doesn't any subscription change require 31 days notice🤔

This is why I would like to make the cancellation request now 😊

You could try the messaging service available via the 'still need help' button at the bottom of the help page here: https://www.sky.com/help/home/your-account/my-account-and-subscription/cancelling/cancel-my-subscrip...
They might be able to help with cancelling just the Sports package.

Appreciated your help, thank you.
I thinking I'm on the right path: got to the Irish chat/message page, just that it looks like it's closed at weekend. I'll try on Monday to get in contact with them and hopefully it will work.
thanls again!
