Can you have two separate Sky accounts at one address?

I left sky 6 weeks ago but have been invited back with a very tempting tv deal (60% off any TV package and £100 credit).

My daughter had requested the new customer broadband code as she wants to sign up and pay for broadband as she's felt like she has a limb missing with no internet these past few weeks so this deal is perfect timing.

Can we both sign up separately so I hold and pay for the TV and she has the broadband contract?

This will be extremely money saving for us if we can :money::money:

    I can't see why not if they're in different names...
  • Phone line was with sky and is currently not live. I think sky used to charge 2.50 a month but I'm sure they don't anymore but if they did it would still be cheaper with 2 accounts

    As far as i know only one Sky account per household address is permitted I'm afraid.

    I spoke to sky in regards to this and they told me you cant as new customer offers are a lot cheaper than the deals they are willing to give me.

    Yes.

    I have Sky TV @ 50% off and I have just signed up the other half with the £6 sky broadband offer.

    Used the same address and even the joint bank account with no problems. I've even spoken to customer service a couple of times without raising any problems.
  • I'm going to give it a try. Will report back either way :)

    So the person I spoke to lied to me? I am getting more and more annoyed each time I read about SKY

    If true, I doubt they would openly agree that an account restriction is based on an individual rather than a household but the system online certainly lets you process an order through a second person at the same address.

    You may run into problems if you had to incept an order on the phone instead. The only issue is that you get two bills instead of one and multiple sky logins to view account details, certainly worthwhile if in return you achieve a decent saving.
