Re: Last few days, technical fault with channel, disney plus etc works.

I agree, there should be some form of compensation. I'm so close to sending it back as not being fit for purpose.

But they don't make getting in contact with anyone very easy.

Sky glass not will not load

Firstly I am not the most technical person and have slightly disability with use of hands so please be patient.....this is my 3rd year of owning sky glass and up to now everything has been fine....however recently when turning my tv on first thing it will either not play either live tv or app function.....or will do for a short period then screen goes blank and only sound remains....if I back out....I  the background a random dialogue plays few a few seconds from something I haven't even watched.....it's driving me crazy each morning!

Re: Sky glass not will not load

@Joolz1967 It's an issue a few of us are having with both Gen TV's. Sky are apparently aware of it but we need to wait for a fix.

 

Some of us have found that going through a factory reset with Sky will clear the issue for a longer period than the normal 'soft' reset will. Sky do advise to go through it with them in case of problems re-setting the TV back up. 

 

 It's not a permanent fix, merely papers over the cracks.

Have you asked? I think it's highly unlikely that Sky will volunteer anything, not least because not all Glass TVs have this problem

sky glass

problems with sky glass watching channels  as screen tells me is loading. then, technical problems. Netflix, prime, you tube all work fine. after watching any of these or resetting tv then it works. but surely shouldn't have to do this everytime?

called sky and put through to 4 different advisors so far .

TV glitch

Does anyone else's TV just glitch halfway through a program/film where the only solution is to unplug the TV then plug it back in again??

Update from me:

 

I've used my Sky Protect insurance which covers software failures and there will be a replacement glass arriving saturday (albeit Pink instead of my current green)

 

Lets see if this problem persists

@Rob89 Sounds like the problem many are having. Sky are aware. We have to wait for a fix.

@wsimm I hope it does but I have my doubts with it being a software/firmware issue and not a faulty unit problem. Fingers crossed for you.
