Only once a year on the night of Christmas Eve, Sky Christmas begins when Sky Santa comes down the Sky Ultrafast Broadband connection to your home. If there are any issues with your Sky products, Sky Santa fixes them. Sky Santa thanks you for the Vue tickets and leaves Sky goodies under your tree and in your stockings. 

Then, when Sky Santa visits all the homes in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and Italy, he returns to the Comcast global headquarters in a bitterly cold Philadelphia, where the Sky elves are hard at work preparing new upgrades, festive offers, and buffering-free Christmas marathons for next year.

But remember, if you've been on the naughty list and missed any of your Sky bills, you might just get a faulty update that causes your devices to not turn on, or you might even get a Sky remote control with low batteries, or a single episode of The Last of Us  in SD as a reminder to stay on the nice list for next Sky Christmas!



My Sky services:
  • Sky Q in Ireland:
  • ︎Sky Signature, Sky Cinema, Sky HD, Paramount+, Discovery+
  • Sky Ultrafast Max (Fibre Internet)
  • Sky Talk (VoIP)
  • Sky Mobile
  • Spotify (Premium)

Please treat everyone with respect. 🙂
