How to Cancel Sky TV or Sky Sports UK (2026)

By Pausa • April 2026

Sky requires you to cancel by phone or online chat — you cannot cancel through the website alone. Here is how to do it.

How to cancel Sky UK

Call 03442 411 653 (Sky customer service)
Or use Sky live chat at sky.com/shop/help
Say you want to cancel your subscription
Sky will offer discounts to keep you — you can accept or decline

Sky minimum contract warning

If you are within a minimum term contract (usually 18 months), Sky may charge an early termination fee. Check your contract start date in My Sky account before calling.

How to negotiate a better Sky deal

Call the cancellation team and say you want to leave. They have authority to offer significant discounts — sometimes 50% off for 6-12 months. Only the cancellation team can offer these, not regular customer service.

Alternatives to Sky Sports UK

TNT Sports — from £30/month
NOW Sports — from £14.99/month (day pass available)
Amazon Prime Video — includes some Premier League matches

Stop paying for subscriptions you forgot about

Pausa finds every subscription you pay for, warns you before big charges land, and writes the cancel email for you.
