Question 1

What is SKY*SUBSCRIPTION on my bank statement?

Accepted Answer

SKY*SUBSCRIPTION is a legitimate charge from Sky UK for your monthly Sky TV, Sky Sports, or broadband package. The amount typically falls between £25 and £80 depending on which channels and services you have subscribed to. If you have Sky Sports, a full TV bundle, or a combined broadband and TV package, this charge will appear on your statement each month under this reference.

Question 2

My SKY*SUBSCRIPTION charge is higher than usual this month — why?

Accepted Answer

Sky occasionally adjusts its subscription prices annually, and your bill can also increase if you recently added extra channels such as Sky Sports, Sky Cinema, or upgraded your broadband speed. It is also possible a free trial period has ended and the full price is now being charged. Log in to your Sky account at sky.com/shop/manage-account to review your current package and see a full breakdown of what you are being billed for each month.

Question 3

How do I cancel my Sky subscription to stop the SKY*SUBSCRIPTION charge?

Accepted Answer

To cancel your Sky subscription and stop future SKY*SUBSCRIPTION charges, visit sky.com/shop/manage-account and log in with your Sky ID. From there you can view your package, make changes, or begin the cancellation process. Bear in mind that Sky subscriptions often have a minimum contract period, and cancelling early may incur an early termination fee. Once cancelled, the monthly charge of between £25 and £80 will no longer appear on your bank statement after your final billing date.

Question 4

I don't recognise the SKY*SUBSCRIPTION charge — could someone have signed up using my details?

Accepted Answer

While SKY*SUBSCRIPTION is a known and legitimate charge from Sky UK, it is worth checking whether anyone in your household set up or upgraded a Sky account recently, as the charge covers Sky TV, Sky Sports, and broadband services. Log in at sky.com/shop/manage-account to see the account details associated with your payment method. If you genuinely do not recognise the subscription and cannot find a linked account, contact Sky customer support directly and also notify your bank, as they can investigate and reverse unauthorised transactions if necessary.
