Help & Support - How To UseAccount - Sky iD - Create a Sky iD
The first Sky iD you create should be set up by the primary account holder, as this will give them full access to the Sky account. Additional users can be created either by the primary iD holder, or by those requesting access. The primary iD holder is then responsible for authorising access to what the additional users will see. If you'd like more information about Sky iD, see our Sky iD explained article.
Please note: before you can create an additional user iD, you’ll need to sign out of your existing Sky iD account.

Manage your Sky TV bills
Understanding your bill
We want you to understand the amounts you’re paying and how payments are taken, so that you can get to know the billing process better and plan your finances.
Working out your bill
When paying a bill, you’re paying in advance for your fixed-price subscriptions such as Sky TV, Sky Broadband, Sky Talk and Sky Line Rental. If you have any one-off charges, such as call charges, movies from Sky Store or Sky Box Office charges, these will appear on your next bill. You can view your current bill in your My Sky account once your services are installed. The amount will show 14 days before payment is due. You’ll only pay for the services you’re getting.
Your first bill
You’ll only start paying for your service from the date it becomes active. You’ll then receive a letter or email showing your monthly charge. Your first payment will be taken 14 days after your service begins. This amount will cover the 14 days used and the remainder of your first month. For example, if your service was activated on 4 July, payment will be taken on 18 July and will cover the period 4 July – 3 August.
Your second bill
A second payment will be taken approximately 14 days after your first bill was paid, dependent on the date you have selected your Direct Debit/Credit Card payment to be taken. As payments are made in advance, this will cover your next month’s subscription. You may notice that the dates billed cover more than one month. This is because the bill will include any services that have become active since the previous payment, such as Sky Broadband, Sky Talk or Sky Line Rental. So using the previous example, your second bill will cover services for the period 4 August – 3 September. If you’ve had Sky Broadband become active since 18 July, you will also be billed for the period 18 July – 3 August.
Your third bill
Your third bill will cover all of your services and subscriptions for the next month in advance. This will be the amount you expect to pay each month, excluding any one-off charges, and will be taken one month after your second payment.
Payment due date
The date your third bill is taken will be the date all subsequent payments are taken. You can change your payment date, payment method or payment details online, through interactive or using the Sky Service app on a mobile device.
Late payment fee
We always ask you to pay your bill by your payment due date. If you don’t, we may charge a £7.50 late payment fee and your Sky services could be restricted. VAT won't be applied to this fee. We may also charge you for the costs we incur that are related to recovering debt on your account. If you incur a late payment fee this will be shown on your next bill but we won't charge this fee, restrict your services or instruct a debt collection company without contacting you first.
Other payment charges
There are other occasions when we may charge you a fee, including instances when we have to handle a payment instruction that is returned to us because you don’t have enough money in your account, the payment is cancelled or is not cleared by your bank. An example of a fee we may charge as a result of cancelling a payment is a chargeback fee. This is where you ask your card provider to reverse a payment you’ve made and that we’ve processed. If we are charged a chargeback fee by your card provider, we may pass this on to you. The current Visa and MasterCard chargeback fee is £12 for each chargeback. VAT won't be applied to this fee.
If you incur any of these fees they will be added to your bill.
Please note, you could also be charged a late payment fee if you don’t pay your bill by your payment due date (or your bill has not been paid as a result of a chargeback). Check your latest bill and make payments on the go* using the Sky Service app. Download it now for free.
