Expert Opinion
Never share your password over the phone. Verify any caller claiming to be from Sky by calling the official customer‑service number you find on your bill or the company website, not the number on the incoming line. Treat requests for personal details, especially passwords or mother‑maiden name, as red flags and refuse to provide them. Use caller verification before discussing account information, and consider blocking numbers that repeatedly pressure you. Report suspicious calls to your provider and, if needed, to the national fraud authority. Keep a log of call times and scripts to help spot patterns and protect your identity.

Excellent service!
A person with a Northern Ireland accent, claiming to be from Sky, contacted me and adressed me by my first name, but i suspected it was a scam and ended the call
Caution is advised when dealing with this number, as it appears to be a scam attempting to gather personal information by offering broadband cost reductions.
This call was about a complaint I had made to Sky. The representative seemed friendly. I suspect it was an outsourced Sky call center (previously Abtran), which might explain the 6 pm calls. Since the inbound calls end, that's when outbound calls are made. Additionally, Sky may not have a record of the call due to a different CRM system. These centers are also involved in customer retention and may contact former customers.
The initial unsolicited call was an attempt to set up a payment plan for Sky Glass, during which the caller asked for my name and then pressured me to commit to a payment plan, raising suspicions when they requested credit card information
