Still works as of today, Fri. Through in 2 mins without the annoying 10 level button pressing tree.
Better than 10 mins on hold before giving up on the 0870 no yesterday.

I just used this number (2.45pm, Tuesday 17 April) and got through to an adviser in about three minutes, so it still works and saved me a fortune as I knew it would be a long call. I also used 18185 to dial out, so this 30 minute call cost me just 5p! MLS

Sky Digital's customer services no. 0870 2404040 has a geographical alternative: 01506 831782 - this latter number has now been barred with the message " this service is no longer available " and then directs back to the 0870 number !

Try other numbers in the sequence and see what you get: 01506 831783, 4, 5 and the other way: 831779, 78, 77 etc

Thanks Dave, 01506 831783 worked like a charm to customer services. I think the problem is that people may be looking up geographical alternatives on this site, calling them and then boasting that they are not using the 0870 number. The company then becomes aware of the bypass and changes it's numbers. So everyone, please keep them in the dark.

You need to be a bit sneaky though as I was asked how I got hold of the number i used the last time I called Sky - I said a friend had given it to me!!

There is no need to be sneaky 'minniemax', if they ask you just say 'i am not telling you' and let them stew in their own juices.

I have been using 0800 051 2593 to phone sky but this has now been stopped. Does anyone have a new free number as this has happened before?

Nearby 0800 numbers seem to also be Sky. Some are as 2593 and don't work. Try changing the last digit to 7, it asks for your home phone number.

Like I say, other nearby numbers are also Sky. Try calling them and see whether you get through to CS.
