Millions of Sky Mobile customers will see their bills rise from next month after a new increase was announced.

The majority of people will see their bill go up by £1.50 a month, which equates to an annual rise of £18. Some people will see their bill rise by more or less than this amount.

Customers will see the higher price reflected in their bill from February 14, 2026. It marks the first time Sky Mobile has announced a price change for in-contract customers in over seven years.

If you are unhappy about the price increase, and you are in the minimum term of your contract, you can cancel your package without paying an early termination charge.

The price of the Sky Mobile social tariff, which is available to those on low income, will remain frozen.

Sky said the price change is down to increased wholesale network costs, and revealed customers will be contacted from today if their bill is increasing.

A Sky Mobile spokesperson said: “To continue delivering the quality, service, and value our customers expect, most Sky Mobile customers will see a £1.50 increase to their monthly bill from February.

“We don’t take decisions like this lightly, which is why we have not increased mobile prices mid-contract for more than seven years.

“This change reflects the ongoing cost pressures being faced across the industry, while allowing us to continue investing in our network and customer experience.”

It comes after O2 announced almost all mobile and SIM-only contract customers will see their monthly mobile bill rise by £2.50 a month from April 2026 – up from the originally planned increase of £1.80 a month.
