Block nuisance calls
We get the same call centre, same spam/scam plug for "online education services" from perhaps South East Asia.
I notice call logs are only for outgoing calls.
Despite saying every time please remove us from your database, we still get the calls at least once a week.
How do we go about blocking this?

Re: Block nuisance calls
If you have the Sky Takk Shield enabled then you can try blocking them via this or if you phone has the capability to block calls then you could try this.

Still the same - any Sky reps/mods can answer?
At other times it's "server error"?
Whats going on here?

Re: Block nuisance calls
Cheers,
Thank you, I've decided to terminate ( although the online form for cancellation wasn't working neither, with all fields filled in correctly. No opinion to express on that....)
I've had issues with Sky mobile since I've been with Sky, no your customers don't want to have to jump through numerous hoops, wait days for an official response, chat with bots.... and as with previous issues, I gave up everytime.
Maybe you can help me with something else - I want to cancel my Sky Mobile, and do not want or need to take the number with me. I'm with a different mobile provider with a new number.
Cheers !
