Sky UK Limited (appellant) v The Office of Communications (respondent)
Tuesday 29 July 2025
By Appellant’s Notice submitted on 19 December 2024, Sky UK Limited, appellant below, appeal the decision of the Competition Appeal Tribunal dated 13 September 2024 dismissing the appeal against a confirmation decision made by Ofcom on 19 August 2022 under section 96C of the Communications Act 2003.
Sky UK Limited appeals against the Confirmation Decision dated 19 August 2022 entitled ‘Investigation into Sky’s compliance with the obligation to provide end-of-contract notifications’ which was made by the Office of Communications under section 96C. In the Decision, Ofcom found that Sky’s pay TV services constitute an electronic communications service (“ECS”) within the meaning of that term in section 32(2) and (2A)(c) of the 2003 Act and Sky had breached Condition C1 of the General Conditions of Entitlement as of 15 February 2020 because it had not sent customers of its pay TV services end-of-contract notifications.
