About

Who is Sky Mobile?

Sky Mobile is the consumer mobile arm of Sky UK, launched in 2017 as a Mobile Virtual Network Operator riding on the O2 network. It targets households that already have Sky TV or Sky broadband, with bundle discounts and single-bill convenience.

Sky UK is owned by Comcast (acquired in 2018) and operates the largest pay-TV business in the UK and Ireland. Sky Mobile sits inside the same My Sky account as broadband and TV, so it shows up on one consolidated bill.

Sky Mobile is regulated by Ofcom. Complaint handling falls under the Ombudsman Services: Communications scheme.

Reviews snapshot

What customers actually say about Sky Mobile

Trustpilot, sky.com mobile

4.0/ 5

~30,000 reviews

Positive overall

Higher than most UK telcos. Customers consistently praise the Piggybank rollover and the Mix plan flexibility (split data and call separately). Complaints focus on retentions process and price changes when upgrading.

Ofcom complaints

4/ 100k

Industry average ~8

Positive overall

Best-in-class. Sky consistently has one of the lowest complaint rates in Ofcom's mobile data, often half the industry average. Customer service ranks well above EE, Vodafone and Three.

Which? annual survey

Recommendedcustomer score

Top tier

Positive overall

Which? gives Sky Mobile a "Recommended Provider" rating, citing the Piggybank feature, the flexibility of Mix plans and strong customer service scores. Value-for-money is mid-range, not the cheapest option.

MoneySavingExpert forum

Strong fit for Sky householdsforum sentiment

Hundreds of threads

Positive overall

Forum consensus: brilliant if you already have Sky TV or Sky broadband (discounts and integrated billing). Pricing is higher than O2-host alternatives like giffgaff or Tesco Mobile, so non-Sky households often skip it on value.

Selectra expert verdict

Independent read, no commission shaping

Sky Mobile is one of the strongest UK MVNOs on customer service, with Ofcom complaints at half the industry average and Trustpilot scores few mass-market UK networks beat. The Piggybank rollover alone is a genuine differentiator: if your data usage varies month to month, no other major UK network protects unused allowance for 3 years.

The honest catch: Sky Mobile isn’t the cheapest O2-host option. For pure value, giffgaff and Tesco Mobile beat it on £-per-GB. Pick Sky Mobile if you have Sky TV or broadband already, value great customer service, or specifically want Piggybank.

FAQ

Sky Mobile plans, coverage and contact, your questions answered

Is Sky Mobile good in 2026?

Yes, especially if you already use Sky TV or Sky broadband. Sky Mobile runs on O2’s 4G and 5G network, so signal at your postcode matches an O2-branded SIM. Trustpilot at 4.0 / 5 and Ofcom complaints at 4 per 100k (half the industry average) put Sky among the most-recommended UK mobile networks. The honest catch: Sky Mobile is not the cheapest O2-host option; giffgaff and Tesco Mobile typically beat it on price.

What is Sky Mobile Piggybank?

Piggybank is the standout Sky Mobile feature: any data you do not use in a month rolls over for up to 3 years. So if you have a 12 GB plan and use 8 GB this month, 4 GB goes into your Piggybank. Save up enough and you can take a free data holiday or share with another Sky Mobile customer. No other major UK network has anything quite like it.

Are Sky Mobile and Sky TV separate accounts?

Both sit inside your My Sky account but they are separate products. You can have one without the other. Existing Sky TV customers usually get a discount when adding Sky Mobile, and you can pay one bill across both. Cancellation of one does not auto-cancel the other.

Does Sky Mobile have 5G?

Yes. 5G is included on every Mix plan, no extra cost, in any 5G-active O2 postcode (more than 250 UK towns and cities). Outside 5G coverage, your phone falls back to O2’s 4G network automatically.

How do I contact Sky Mobile?

From a Sky Mobile, dial 0800 759 0386 free. From any other phone, the same number is standard UK rate. Lines run Monday to Friday 08:30 to 21:30, Saturday 08:30 to 17:00, Sunday 09:00 to 17:00. The Sky Mobile app has live chat once signed in.
