I have been using this number for over 6 months now and never fail to get through. Try puting the ever faithful 141 in front of the number before dialing. Used it last week to get my Sky+ box fixed for free, they tried the £65 callout but the threat of cancellation soon removed that. Grin

Any way like i say try the number with 141 in front and good luck Wink

It seems to be working fine now. I have skytalk and just dialed the number direct without using 141 £1.20 Saved.

First and foremost many thanks to this site guys great job

Reading all of this thread i ve figured out something. Going by my assumption that the 0800 number doesnt change whether its on or off i believe its to do with caller volumes which also is also in cohesion with people stating if its on or off. When its posted its on obviously many people get wind of this and make the calls = larger volumes, when its off less calls, someone tries it randomly (its then back on etc etc). Try it in off peak times.
Just a theory
As for getting freebies from sky by threatening to leave, i do believe (for those that dont know) this is apparent for many companies offering a service in exchange for money (t-mobile used to be one for example but are becoming more stringent) i do hope this helps

Didn't solve my problem (broadband activated but router not yet received) but that's another story - at least I saved 23 minutes worth of an 0870 call!

Hi,

I had recently moved, and was trying to call Sky to arrange for an engineer to come and install a new satellite dish. I had tried calling the 0870 number at first, but I had been tranferred from one department to the next without getting anything done (and wasting £3+ on hold).

Then I tried calling the 08000512595 I had found on this site, and was put on hold for 48 MIN without getting anything done either. The customer service guy had tried to help but as it was not a direct line to the 'Moving House' -related department, the best he could was to put me in the queue...

So, I am begging for someone, if you have any way I can get to the relevant department, please help me...

Have you tried the 01506 geographical number?

I have tried to call the geographical number too. I am thinking perhaps I had tried calling in at the 'peak hour' periods?

I intend to try calling again tomorrow at some ungodly hour, and hopefully I can get to some living person to help me with my problem. But all the directing, press '1' for this, '2' for that... is kinda confusing, not to mention waste of time.

One thing is for sure, I am sure glad I am not using the 0870 number. Grin

Try calling other nearby 01506 numbers as this number was found because the original one was discontinued. They will all go to the Sky office, although they may be departments that can't help you and/or employees' direct numbers.

It refered me to the 0870 number. I dialed the geographic number and that still worked.

I have just spoken to the Complaints Dept and have been told that if you send them a copy of your phone bill will the calls to them hightlighted and a covering letter they will refund the cost of the calls.

You need to send a copy to:
