How hard is it to cancel Sky Mobile?
Sky Mobile scores 81/100 (grade B) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the GB — a clearly documented cancellation policy. Cancellation is available via online (self-serve), phone, text.
To leave Sky Mobile and keep your number, text PAC to 65075 from your Sky Mobile handset (delivered within ~1 minute, valid 30 days); to leave without keeping it, text STAC to 75075 (also valid 30 days); give the code to your new network, which completes the switch usually within one working day. With a PAC/STAC no notice is required and, if out of minimum term, Sky can only charge up to the date the code is used; the standard cancellation (not switching) requires 31 days' notice. Early Termination Charges may apply for the remaining months if you leave within the minimum term. Customers who have paid for SIMs 12+ months can also call 150 to cancel; refund of unused service is not stated.

Scope & fairness
This is the Documented-Policy tier: it measures how clearly the cancellation policy is published (cited, dated facts), not the behavioural experience of cancelling (Verified-Flow audit pending). Every company is scored on the same five dimensions with the same published weights — scores cannot be bought or removed. It is opinion grounded in disclosed facts, and not legal advice.
