09030280096 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 09030280096 👆 is reported as a premium-rate third-party number misleadingly linked to Sky customer services, resulting in unexpected and excessive charges. Many callers believed they were contacting Sky directly but were routed via an intermediary that levies high fees, often without clear prior warning. Complaints highlight significant billing anomalies, calls never made or short calls attracting disproportionately high fees, and difficulties obtaining refunds as Sky distances itself, stating these are not their official contact numbers. Users strongly advise avoiding this number, recommending using Sky’s official website or known contact numbers to prevent inflated bills. There are recurring calls for regulatory attention, improved transparency, and warnings against trusting Google search results due to paid placements favouring such costly redirect services.

Accidently rang this number and ended up being charged £15.86. I complained to Sky because they just let this kind of thing happen. Feels like they’re okay with customers getting stung. I only got £15 back as a goodwill gesture after I cancelled all my Sky packages cause of this.

As loyal Sky customers, we were rather taken aback to find a charge of £12.79 on our account dated the 18th of October, 2016. We can't recall having made or taken any calls from this particular number. It certainly seems suspicious, and we’re keen to understand how we can get this amount refunded or ideally, how to stop this happening in the future. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I'm a sky talk user and got billed £17 for a 20 second call to Sky's customer service after googling their number. I rang 09030280096. When I queried the charge with Sky, they refused to refund or pay any compensation. They said they get loads of complaints like this daily but won't take responsibility for the numbers people ring. These companies pay Google to have their numbers show up first when folks search for Sky, and then they charge a fortune. It's really bad, be careful!!

In response to Tony Seaton, I must say it only takes half a minute to locate Sky's complaints line on their site, which can then direct you to any department you need. Perhaps a bit of effort in searching wouldn't go amiss!

My Vodafone bill came through £20 more than usual, so I went online to investigate. Turns out that extra £20 was charged to this number. I reckon it was my disabled husband ringing Sky, he wouldn't recall to avoid 08 or 09 numbers, makes me fuming, it feels like legal theft. I can't get why Sky don't take action over this, unless they're earning a cut themselves! Has anyone managed to get their money back? If so, how did you do it?

My son ended up calling this number he stumbled upon on his phone. After he rang them, they told him to hang up and assured him they'd call back. He complied, only to later find that I was billed £18.08 for a whopping 23 minutes! I contacted Sky to get to the bottom of it, and after some digging, they informed me that this number is linked to a recording service used by HMRC, and that Sky had no ties to it. Strangely enough, my son was indeed chatting with Sky's customer service. It seems that the recording outfit diverted him to Sky to capture the conversation, and now they’ve hit him with this fee. I believe Sky ought to issue a warning about these sorts of situations and rectify what’s happened. This unexpected charge is quite a burden for us, and I'm seriously contemplating cancelling all my Sky subscriptions as a result.

I rang this number thinking it was Sky broadband! After getting a whopping £92.21 phone bill, I’ve been told it’s got no connection with Sky at all, even though all the contacts on the page said it was for Sky! Seems like it might be some kind of call recording firm? I emailed them too cos I never even got picked up, it just kept ringing! Of course, I’ve had no reply at all! Anyone got any suggestions?

this number belongs to a middleman who charges you for passing you on to SKY, but SKY isn’t involved with any of these extra fees. if you want to get in touch with SKY it’s better to just use their official website. you know what they say, dont trust everything you find online.

In response to Daniel, I reckon SKY is to blame here. They conveniently omit phone numbers from both their bills and the order confirmations. Their website lacks proper contact numbers, which only serves to benefit these fraudsters. Honestly, I wouldn’t bat an eyelid if it turned out these scammers had connections to the SKY brand itself.

I ended up with a hefty bill of £24 for just two phone calls that barely clocked 22 minutes! My aim was to sort out the extra channels that Sky had inexplicably tacked onto my dad's account, which he wasn't at all interested in. His monthly fee skyrocketed from £58 to an astonishing £112. To top it all off, they had the audacity to add channels like Man United, Liverpool, and Chelsea TV, but without any commentary! I tried reaching out to the Sky community helpline, but they couldn't remove the channels either. Absolutely appalling service!

Just a heads up to folks regarding what Jame Bonesque pointed out! It’s all well and good to lodge a complaint with Ofcom or the ombudsman, but let’s not forget that if you phoned a third-party number, that’s where the charges come from - not directly from Sky. If you wish to get in touch with Sky, simply dial 150 on a Sky landline or 03442 414141 from any other phone, including mobiles. That second number is typically part of the inclusive call package, assuming you stick to your provider's guidelines concerning call times and lengths. Also, if you happen to have their Sky app on your smartphone or tablet, take advantage of the callback option. Just go to the menu, select Help and support, then Talk to us. There, you can check the expected wait times for both technical and billing queries. If it looks like you’ll have to wait longer than five minutes, you can easily request a callback.

It appears this is a third-party service rather than a direct Sky line. They connect your call to Sky but take a fee while doing so. Unsurprisingly, Sky's policy means they won't refund you, seeing as it’s not their contact number. After this experience, I decided to ring the number listed on their official site, and thankfully, there were no charges incurred!

I’ve had quite the ordeal with Sky over my mini box malfunctioning. I rang them up not once, but twice, and all I got was endless waiting on hold, followed by transfers to various departments that led nowhere. In the end, I found myself having to ring back four days later about the same pesky issue! Now, to top it all off, I’ve been slapped with a £45 charge for the honour of dealing with their tech problem. I’ll be giving Sky another bell, and if they can’t sort this mess out to my satisfaction, it’ll be off to the ombudsman for me. It’s absolutely ridiculous!

this isnt actually skys direct number. youre getting connected to a middleman who then phones sky, but they add an extra charge for doing it. these firms pay heaps to google so their number pops up first when you search, making you think its sky’s own number and then you ring them. sky dont get any of the cash - it all goes to these companies and you’ll see a charge on your phone bill called an access fee (or service fee) no matter who your phone provider is.

I’ve just discovered that I’ve been on a call to Sky’s customer support, which turns out to be a premium line, and they don't even give you a heads-up about the charges at the start of the conversation. Instead, you’re made to sit through a rather lengthy spiel about their terms and conditions without any clue as to what you're racking up in costs. I've ended up spending more than £25, which feels quite unreasonable. It’s left me feeling really frustrated, to the point where I’m seriously considering cutting ties with Sky altogether.
