I have a phone contract with Sky Mobile . Had my phone stolen . My insurance company need specific usage and blocking information. I am now in the second week of attempting to get it . Endless minutes of my life I can’t get back on the phone and chat . With agents at times trying to sell me sky products . I even have made a complaint and was told that it had been passed to their Specialist Mobile Team . Then told they were experiencing a high volume of cases and would get back to me . (Oh yes that one !!) I replied asking them how’s long they haven’t even had the professional decency to reply I have now had to max out my credit card to get a phone as it was clear I wasn’t going to resolve this quickly . I am not going away sky mobile as now I’m really annoyed ,get your act together

Called Sky today 23rd June at 13.19 to sort my Netflix account out but the agent couldn’t deal with it and I have to wait till next week when my Sky tv is installed. He wanted me to give him a top feedback for his services I said no as he didn’t help me. He kept on calling me back this happened about 3 times and he left a voicemail on wife’s my phone as I was using her phone at the time. I called back and spoke to an agent male and he said this would be dealt internally by management.
Then I received an email about Sky sound box which I never ordered worth £499. I had to call up and spoke to another agent. He said it’s a clinch and not to worry about it and will monitor my account.
I had to call Sky Tv back at 15.46 and speak to complaints and I spoke to another male agent and told him this male agent is calling me again which was at 15.36 he said he will get the supervisor from that agent teams to call me within 24 hrs. I have been with Sky over 17 years and I’ve never ever experienced anything like this. My wife that night couldn’t sleep properly as we have 2 children’s under 16 years old and this agent had my personal details on the system and we weren’t sure what he would do. I’ve asked this to be investigated and I’ve asked for a deadlocked letter from Sky because we could not agree to a resolution of this matter but no letter has yet been sent to me as promised.

Absolutely awful experience.
Basically hoodwinked into signing up for new contract with the little sky box. Just plug and play with WiFi/ethernet.
And it's worked about 10 days over the last three months.
Beyond useless customer service.

Sarah at Trafford was amazing. She was very casual and informative and fun. Great experience and highly recommend getting in touch with people for Sky intead of looking online.
This company is letting consumers down. The internet service is unreliable, with speeds far slower than what they advertise. They claim to offer fast, stable broadband, but in reality the connection drops, lags, and fails to meet the standards they promote.
Customers deserve honesty and a service that performs as promised, not slow speeds disguised as “fast internet.”

What is the point of ringing an advisor?
They say they will sort it out and get back to me , they never do.
Now they have closed the case, leaving me in limbo.
Plus I asked them to send me a breakdown of my charges for leaving Sky broadband early.
They have refused and told me to go on My Sky and download it but it won’t, I wish I had cancelled the TV as well.
Awful customer service with their advisors doing nothing but promising every to get you off the line.

Benjamin is a top guy. Friendly and accommodating. Nice one Ben10
The sale rep was very helpful understanding and we was able to save £780 over the next 18 Months Compared with the other broadband provider. Thank you for your time
I switched from Virgin Media to Sky after accepting an offer to move my broadband. Unfortunately, the experience has been one of the worst customer service experiences I have ever had.
The installation was plagued by delays and poor communication. I spent weeks chasing updates, making countless phone calls and repeatedly being told someone would contact me, only for nothing meaningful to happen. Even after Openreach completed the necessary external work and my neighbour's installation was completed, my own order continued to be delayed.
Once the service was finally installed, the problems continued. To be fair, the Wi-Fi speeds were excellent, consistently exceeding 900 Mbps. However, the vast majority of my devices are connected via Ethernet, and despite paying for Gigafast Broadband and being advised by Sky's engineer that I should receive speeds close to 1 Gbps over a wired connection, the fastest Ethernet speed I achieved was around 150 Mbps.
I contacted the dedicated support team, only to be given incorrect troubleshooting advice, including instructions to press a reset button that doesn't even exist on the Sky Max Hub. After following all of their instructions, testing multiple Ethernet ports and cables, and confirming the issue remained unresolved, my messages simply went unanswered.
What disappointed me most was the complete lack of ownership. Every stage of the process involved chasing Sky for updates, repeating the same information and waiting for responses that never came. Even after escalating the matter and raising a formal complaint, I received little meaningful assistance. The poor communication and lack of follow-up that I experienced before installation simply continued afterwards.
This experience has been particularly difficult because I have been unwell and am preparing for major surgery. At a time when I should have been focusing on my health, I instead found myself spending months trying to resolve issues that should never have occurred. The unnecessary stress, time and effort involved were completely avoidable.
In the end, I completely lost confidence in Sky's ability to provide or support the service and requested cancellation of my broadband.
Ironically, switching to Sky was intended to improve my broadband experience, but it achieved the opposite. As a result, I have decided to remain with Virgin Media. In fairness, Virgin Media's customer service has improved considerably in recent months and, based on my own experience, they have been far more responsive and reliable throughout this process.
I have been a Sky TV customer for many years, so this review is not written lightly. My experience with Sky Broadband, however, has been deeply disappointing. Based on everything I experienced, I cannot recommend the service.

Very friendly, helpful & knowledgeable staff. Very much appreciated Sarah's support today & patience answering all our queries.
Customer for 26 years vip diamond used to receive excellent service , this has significantly gone downhill for what I pay , I asked to have package advertised for new customer and was told this was not possible and I could have half the package for same price or pay double the price to have the same offer so obviously they don’t want to keep existing customers so I will be looking for another company and cancelling all accounts with sky , poor customer retention

Bought a sim only deal for my daughters phone, for months now since purchasing this sim she has been receiving txts and calls from debt collection agencies asking for the same person to call them. I brought this to Sky's attention however, despite telling them I was not available during working hours they continued to call me at times I could not pick up. When tackled on this I was told they couldn't call be after 6pm due to not working that late in India!! I have now had to take matters into my own hands by intercepting the tens of calls a day coming to my daughters phone. I'm disgusted that a number I have purchased appears to have been used previously without warning from Sky Mobile. When my contract is up I'll be moving my entire family to a more ethical provider

Ryan was very helpful and helped me set up my account through the app and clearly explained how to set up each different thing. Very kind and explained well what sky all includes. Very appreciated
In short, called for some help regarding a mobile phone, was given some information which yet again was incorrect. Passed through to an incorrect department who then raised a complaint. I specifically said please do not close the complaint until I have agreed to the resolution. Within minutes if not seconds received an email saying the complaint had been closed with no resolution. This is not the first time this has happened. Sky Mobile especially has gone completely down hill with no ownership since moving operations abroad. Spend the little extra and go with someone else. I’ll be raising with the ombudsman.

Terry was lovely and welcoming. Helped me out massively in understanding how things work and was very patient with me. Lovely visit
Booked an engineer visit for a router issue and took time off work for the slot, no one showed up and no call to explain. Rebooked for the following week and the exact same thing happened again, with only a brief apology text sent after the window had already passed.
