I just used this number (2.45pm, Tuesday 17 April) and got through to an adviser in about three minutes, so it still works and saved me a fortune as I knew it would be a long call. I also used 18185 to dial out, so this 30 minute call cost me just 5p! MLS

Try other numbers in the sequence and see what you get: 01506 831783, 4, 5 and the other way: 831779, 78, 77 etc

Thanks Dave, 01506 831783 worked like a charm to customer services. I think the problem is that people may be looking up geographical alternatives on this site, calling them and then boasting that they are not using the 0870 number. The company then becomes aware of the bypass and changes it's numbers. So everyone, please keep them in the dark.

You need to be a bit sneaky though as I was asked how I got hold of the number i used the last time I called Sky - I said a friend had given it to me!!

Nearby 0800 numbers seem to also be Sky. Some are as 2593 and don't work. Try changing the last digit to 7, it asks for your home phone number.
