No freeviews channels after upgrading to sky q
Previously was able to watch freeviews channel on sky+hd but since upgrading have to watch all channels through sky. In our household we watch freeview and only switch ky on to watch football and channels we cannot get on freeview. Was not aware once we upgrade we will not be able to do so. I wish I knew that before. Thanks

NOW TV ADVERTS, SKIPPING POSSIBLE?
I know for an extra £4 month you can get advert free Now Tv, but I'd prefer not to have to pay more than necessary for my service. I've tried skipping adverts by fast forwarding when I know they're going to begin, but it seems to make no difference as far as I can tell, I still have adverts to sit through. Is it not…

Football on TV is not worth paying for in it's current format
I took on a contract with BT for their Big Sport package that includes all the Sky Now sports channels just before the shut down. After numerous calls to BT I eventually managed to pause the package and I now have some credit. With the resumption of football the package has been reinstated and I watched the first televised…

Lost all BBC TV and radio channels on Freeview
Hi everyone My Freeview reception has been playing up a bit for the last few weeks. Assumed it might be a problem with the equipment - both TV and tuner are several years old. Picture breaking up, freezing etc etc. (Also getting a quite frequent "UBO" or "U80" error on the Panasonic DVD/VHS/Tuner which auto switches off…

1. moving from sky+ to skyQ during lockdown and 2: SkyQ renewal deals
Hi, Long time user of Sky. The Q product looks very good. Sound like they will fleece me for more money but there seem to be deals. So my questions are 1. With existing Sky + in 2 rooms, will they instal SkyQ without an engineer visit? I presume its just a case of removing the 2 boxes and replacing 2. What happens with Q…

Sky Sports Pause ending - Confirmed
Sky have confirmed that they are ending the Pause facility for Sky Sports (and BT Sports if you are billed by Sky) from 19th June. I do appreciate Sky are a company that need to meet costs and make profits. However, I am disgusted by this decision and do not think it is morally right or Justifiable. By June 19th, at a…

So I bought a 55" Linsar TV last March (2019) through Co-op electrical and it started to play up in the summer with a faint line down the screen and finally packed up and black screened in December.

Sky bills wrong
Has anyone noticed that their sky tv bills are wrong? I renewed contract mid September 19 and my latest bill is for £55 instead of the £40 deal I signed up for. The next 3 bills are the same. I'm assuming that it's just a computer error and will be resolved at some point. Can't get through to call centres and no online…
