How to Cancel Sky TV & Broadband UK
Need to cancel your Sky TV or Broadband service in the UK? This guide explains how to end your Sky contract, avoid early termination charges, and return any equipment — whether you’re switching providers or cutting household bills.
📋 What to Know Before You Cancel
Sky services typically come with 18-month contracts. If you’re still within your minimum term, you may face early cancellation fees. Outside of contract? You can cancel by giving 31 days’ notice.
You’ll also need to return Sky equipment like your Sky Q box or router if requested.

📦 Return Your Sky Equipment
Sky usually requires you to return devices like:
- Sky Q box
- Sky Hub (broadband router)
- Sky Mini box (if applicable)
They’ll send you a pre-paid returns pack. Not returning equipment could lead to charges — check your account or cancellation confirmation for return instructions.
💬 Still Being Charged?
Still getting billed after cancelling?
- Make sure you received a cancellation confirmation
- Ensure all services (TV, broadband, extras) were included in the request
