SHAME (Sky Customer Service)

My dad is disabled he has tried everything to cancel his sky, but they keep asking him security questions, which he has tried to answer, even his bank account and sky card number just isn't enough, now i am trying to file a complaint to this money grabbing company, he has spent £10 in calling them and they still can't help, the only other option he has is to call in to his local shopping center and speak to a representative which is usually selling stuff, not happy.

My mum had the same carry on Terence, so I wrote them a letter on her behalf, gave them a months notice in writing, and cancelled her direct debit to the bank after that date which they were given. I also recorded the letter to make sure they got it. Never had anymore bother after that. They are horrendous to deal with if you want to cancel.

Terence I have just found the address I wrote to - don't think I am allowed to put it on here. If you want it though, and if you don't mind asking Charlotte to pass your email address on, I shall happily forward it on to you.

Your welcome Terence,and if you like there is also a link www.saynoto0870.com whereupon you put in sky 08702404040 and you will get an alternative number to ring them which is a lot cheaper. My sister did this and was put through to cancellation and did it this way. Me, I prefer paper and pen!!

Over a year ago I posted on this forum about Sky TV and their inability to help customers. In my case it was very similar to Terences problem with the addition Sky would not refund over £65 to my bank. However, I was able to get the email address of the MD at sky and got things sorted out within the week plus my refund. So once again folks, if you have a problem with sky here is the email address you need and its for Jeremy Darroch MD and the address is jeremy.darroch@bskyb.com
Good emailing and let us know how you get on.

George you are a whizz with MDs.....well done for that great advice. :)

Glad to help, Tez, and Mary, thanks also for your help and lovely email. I quite like being a gooseberry....or was it a raspberry....or just a plain old fashioned go-between! :) :)

Shame on them! We cancelled our Sky a few years ago, but things must have been better back then because I don't recall having any problem, except that they try and get you to stay. I think Sky have suffered tremendously following the News of the World scandal, and whenever I take part in a survey about them, I don't mince my words when it comes to voicing what I feel about them!!
