Hi @Anonymous User
If you wasn't asking the NOW Broadband Team to phone you back then it might be a telephone scam that is doing the rounds.
Did they say NOW Broadband when they phoned and not Sky which is one of the common names they use second guessing your Broadband Provider ?
The NOW Broadband Team are based in Ireland so i would expect an English speaking person maybe with a hint of an Irish accent.
NOW rarely phone their customers and their method of communication the majority of the time is to contact customers by email.
NOW will never ask for your full bank details and once you have answered a couple of security questions they will ask you the last four digits only on your bank card associated with your NOW account.
Does your landline phone show the last phone call numbers received and if so what was the number that you received ?
Might be a good idea to contact NOW Broadband using one of the communication methods in the link below.
Firstly to see if it was them who called you and secondly to see if you can get your Broadband sorted and if not your intentions to cancel and go elsewhere.
Should you have trouble hearing people on the phone, then maybe send them a message using the web form on the link.
Hope you get it resolved.
