Looks like Sky have rumbled the freephone access loophole via the Disney Channel numbers.See this thread on the MSE site.

Yup, looks like they have pulled the plug as I was trying to get thru earlier today.

Was working on Monday Sad

Anyone any idea which is the best geographical number to get through to the sky cancelations department?

Cheers, Des.

One of the main aims of this site is to help people by giving alternative numbers.Des G asked for a number and i supplied  it. If we went around worrying about them getting blocked,we would get nowhere fast Wink.

I was only pointing out that this would attract attention and the number was already available in the front page search, if I have been taken as facetious then I apoligize. I am a light user of this excellent site and don't really understand the remark from Des G

Surely the more attention that this site gets is good for its common aim.Then users of NGN might just get the message that Joe Public dont like  ringing them

Des G was asking if you had sent your submission off to Ofcom.Follow the Yellow highlighted section from the Home Page,you cant miss it.

Point taken that the number is available on the search, but it is the last number listed if you search for sky, I tried the numbers listed in order and gave up after trying 3 or 4.

The remark was just a light hearted question wondering if you had submitted a response to ofcom on the 0870/0845 consultation which might help the situation in the long run.

I am also just a light user, but I have submitted my response already. It may not solve the situation, but at least I did my bit Smiley


Cheers, Des.
