Hard Drive Issues, Sky Q Box continual reset. Does not ever start up! Followed all Help guides.
Good Morning,
I am having issues with my main Sky Q box.
The 'Hard Drive Error' message was shown and so I followed all Help guides online - trying to reset the box, but this has failed...
The Sky Q box continues to reset showing both images attached, and never ever moves on from it.
It is (stuck) in a constant cycle of resetting and never ever loads up the Welcome screen.
It has been like it for two days now, without change.
I have turned everything off at the mains, removed cables from the box itself and replugged - repeating this process and left it off overnight, but nothing changes... 😞
I think I need a new main Sky Q box please.
I have not been able to watch any TV since Tuesday.
Please advise.

@RitchiePaulThis is a customer forum so you need to phone Sky so they can either send an engineer or a new box to sort it out for you.
Unfortunately your photo don't show until approved by a real person (too easy to put something nasty in a photo)

@RitchiePaulUnfortunately Sky remove any phone numbers posted, the contact us link at the bottom of the page is a nightmare to navigate.
If you have the "my Sky" app it is easier to find the phone number on there, it is a free app.

Hi @RitchiePaul Doesn't the self diagnostics you followed lead you to contact information?

- Dial 150 if you have a Sky Mobile phone or Sky Talk package it's free to call Sky.
