Cancellation Sky Sports: Easy Method
What is Sky Sports
Sky Sports is a UK-based sports television and streaming brand offering live sport channels, highlights, and related programming. In some markets users access Sky Sports content via NOW (day, week, or month passes), Sky TV add-ons, or apps; access from Canada normally requires subscribing through the platforms that sell Sky content or using geo-restricted services.
This guide explains how Canadians can cancel Sky Sports-related subscriptions (web, app-store, or by post), what to expect about access and refunds, and practical steps and documentation to complete cancellation.
How to cancel Sky Sports
- Web (Sky / NOW): Log into your Sky or NOW account on the Sky/NOW site you used to subscribe (UK sites). Go to your account/subscriptions, select the Sky Sports pass or add-on and choose cancel. Cancellation normally takes effect at the end of your current billing period; promotional or loyalty benefits may be permanently lost on cancellation.
- App Store (iOS): If you bought the pass through Apple in-app purchases, cancel through your iPhone/iPad: Settings → your name → Subscriptions → locate the Sky/ NOW subscription → Cancel Subscription. Apple handles billing and any refund requests via App Store support.
- Google Play (Android): If you purchased via Google Play, cancel via Google Play: Open Play Store → Menu → Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions → select the Sky/NOW subscription → Cancel. Google Play manages billing and any refund requests via its support process.
- By post (registered mail): If you prefer written notice to Sky (UK), send a signed cancellation letter by registered post (raccomandata A/R) including full account details, name, address and phone number to Sky Subscriber Services Ltd, PO Box 43, Livingston, West Lothian, EH54 7DD, United Kingdom. Keep proof of posting; notice period begins on date of receipt.
What happens when you cancel
When you cancel a Sky Sports pass you typically retain access until the end of your current paid billing period (day/week/month/year). Automatic renewals stop after that period. Any promotional or loyalty benefits linked to the subscription may be lost on cancellation and may not be restorable if you re-subscribe later.
Billing responsibility depends on where you purchased: if purchased directly from Sky/NOW, Sky controls billing; if purchased via Apple or Google, that platform controls recurring charges and you must cancel through the platform to stop future billing. Sky may retain account data under its privacy policy for a period after cancellation.
Will I get a refund?
For digital Sky Sports passes, refunds are generally not provided - this follows the common industry norm and the available information showing subscription fees for similar services are non-refundable. If you cancel you will usually keep access until the end of the paid period, but you should not expect a pro rata refund.
Exceptions: physical merchandise bought from Sky’s international shop is subject to a statutory 14-day right to cancel with a full refund (excluding extra delivery costs) if returned within 14 days; some sellers may offer longer return windows (e.g., up to 90 days) with return shipping at the buyer’s cost. Platform purchases (Apple App Store, Google Play) have their own short-term refund processes - refunds there are platform-dependent and decided by Apple or Google, not Sky.
Sky Sports plans and pricing
| Plan | Price (approx.) | Period | Features |
|---|---|---|---|
| NOW (Sports Day Pass) | C$21 - 22 | Day | 24-hour access to Sky Sports channels |
| NOW (Sports Week Pass) | ≈ C$34 | Week | 7-day access to Sky Sports channels |
| NOW (Sports Month Pass) | C$34 | Month | Monthly access to Sky Sports channels |

Your consumer rights in Canada
Canadian consumer protection for digital subscriptions varies by province and generally does not guarantee refunds for digital content. Distance-contract cooling-off periods, where they exist, are usually limited and do not typically apply to immediately consumable digital services. For subscriptions bought through Apple or Google, platform refund procedures and timelines apply and may offer short-term refund options.
In practice, assume there is no statutory right to a refund for Sky Sports digital passes bought by Canadians unless a refund is explicitly offered in the terms at purchase, or Apple/Google issues a refund under their policies.
Customer experiences
Reviews are mixed. Some users express nostalgic praise for Sky Sports’ past commentary and punditry, remembering it as a benchmark for sports broadcasting. However, public review platforms accessible in Canada show significant dissatisfaction: streaming failures (app crashes, buffering, login loops), perceived poor value for cost, excessive advertising breaks, and complaints about content quality and bias.
If you rely on Sky Sports for live events, note that multiple reviewers have reported app instability and streaming problems during key live events; this is a common reason cited for cancellation in user feedback.
Documentation checklist
- Account name and account number (from your Sky/NOW account or confirmation email)
- Registered email and phone number associated with the account
- Order or subscription ID (from purchase receipt or app store order history)
- Payment proof (credit card statement or receipt), dates of last payment
- Date-stamped proof of cancellation request or registered-post receipt if mailed
- Device details and app store account ID if cancelling through Apple/Google
Common mistakes
Many subscribers assume that cancelling an app on the device uninstalls the subscription - deleting an app does not stop recurring billing from Apple or Google; you must cancel via the platform’s subscription settings. Another common mistake is waiting until after the renewal date - cancellations take effect at the end of the current paid period, so cancelling after renewal will usually not trigger a refund.
Users sometimes fail to retain proof of cancellation (screenshots, confirmation emails, or registered-post receipts); without proof it is harder to resolve disputed charges. Also, attempting to use a VPN to access services can complicate support and billing if the subscription was purchased under a different region.
Comparative recap
| Method | Refund | Difficulty |
|---|---|---|
| Web (Sky / NOW account) | No - refunds not typically provided; cancellation takes effect end of billing | Moderate |
| App Store (iOS) | Platform-dependent - request via Apple; short-timeframe refunds possible | Easy |
| Google Play (Android) | Platform-dependent - request via Google Play; short-timeframe refunds possible | Easy |
| Registered post (written notice to Sky UK) | No - refunds unlikely; use for formal notice and disputes | Hard |
After cancelling
After you cancel, keep confirmation evidence (emails, screenshots, registered-post receipt) until any billing dispute is fully resolved. If you purchased through Apple or Google and you still see charges after cancelling, contact the platform first because they control billing for in-app purchases. If you purchased directly from Sky/NOW and need further help, contact Sky customer support and provide your documentation.
