I mean as far as I am aware the BBC have not complained about the charges Sky levy on them to be on their platform.

They've backhandedly complained by making the case for ALL the PBS in the UK. They can't really come out and say "we don't like paying sky this money" because of their universal service obligations, but by coming out and saying that Sky should pay retrans fees to the PBS operators (and then qualifying it with "but we don't mind because you know, universal service obligations") they ARE complaining about the charges Sky levy on them, because they're the exact same charges that the other PBS have to pay.
