I think Skomedal hit the nail on the head there! This is what I will be sending Monday. :)

Sky Account Number: ************
Viewing Card Number: *** *** ***

ADVANCED NOTIFICATION OF CANCELLING CONTRACT.

SKY TV SERVICES ARE NO LONGER REQUIRED.

Dear Sky Cancellations Department

I understand that my contract with you expires in August 2015. Please cancel my Sky subscription when it expires. I will not be re-subscribing. Thank you.

Yours Sincerely

Says it all really! Concise and to the point without all the flannel! :)

That's what we are. A flannel wringing service.

You could always sell the card and receiver, at least that way you would get some of your money back if Sky are not going to cancel the service until August. :D

The email about the payment method is automated, ignore it, you've paid up and are in credit but they'll still try and take the DD every month because the agreement is still in place
I'd cancel it again and ignore the automated emails when they come (if they're that bothered they'll phone you or just disconnect the services)

On that letter above I'd include that you've paid up until the end of contract but others may disagree :-rofl2

I understand that my contract with you expires in August 2015. I have credited my account to August 2015. Please cancel my Sky subscription when it expires. I will not be re-subscribing. Thank you.

Yours Sincerely

Letter sent! I did go into my bank to cancel the DD order which I set up again, but that has not started yet so I just have to wait about a week before and cancel it again :)

HI ALL

Had a phone call from Sky today about my cancellation letter. It was a bit premature to send it, but the guy on the phone said the earliest date I can cancel is June 26th. So, if I send them another letter they will call me back to confirm and that will be it.

So now I know! :)
