Expert Opinion

Repeatedly being called by Sky‑related agents has left many users frustrated. The majority of reports point to Domestic & General operating on behalf of Sky to sell equipment insurance, often using aggressive telemarketing tactics that result in unanswered rings, silent recordings or abrupt hangs‑up. Callers frequently claim the insurance is free with Sky Q or streaming packages, then push for personal or bank details. To protect yourself, register the number with your mobile provider’s spam‑blocking service, add it to any third‑party call‑blocking app and request a written confirmation of any offer. Never share banking information over the phone unless you’ve independently verified the caller’s identity, and consider opting out via the official Sky Insurance website.
