Done all the suggested resets several times - TV/Sky Streaming puck/box thing still 'dead'/non-responsive afterwards. Thought it was my remote yesterday... changed batteries etc but nothing works. What really winds me up is Sky telling customers to do this reset and it will sort it... IT ABSOLUTELY WON'T AND DOESN'T SORT IT (for loads of us at any rate!) ... Gonna call it a night and watch normal TV (which I should have done all along - really, REALLY regret ever getting conned into Sky TV - they've been nothing but trouble since signing up and I'm sick of paying for an inadequate service that isn't received!)... Anyone know what the legalities are as to getting out of a contract if the supplier isn't providing the agreed service?

Finally got back up and running. Followed the reset instructions although immediately came into an issue with the PIN screen not working. Turned off and back on again, following the instructions and now back live.
I was previously with Virgin Media and never had any issues like this. I've even been offered the option to exist from my broadband contract due to poor speeds. Whilst not linked, after this experience, I'll be doing that.

@Carlggggg I had the same issue last night I ended up asking the sky virtual assistant on the sky app to help it told me to change my password on my sky app account so my tv could link to it I did this and then it accepted the code which was on my tv screen went through all the prompts and managed to get the tv working however I have had to scan a few QR codes today to watch certain channels like it first did when I bought this ridiculous tv two years ago hope this helps

I feel this is something that could be sorted by talking to a real person but that doesn't seem to be an option. I had to do the reset on my sky stream puck, having had the same problems in the last couple of days as thousands of other users. When I was moving through the steps, it asked me to link my account. When I tried to do this, there was nothing on the link that required putting in the code on the tv. I was then told to unlink an old inactive which I did. But now I'm stuck and it won't let me use the current address.. Getting oops messages and cannot be processed at this time. I've been just going round in circles. Is there a phone number I can call and speak to an actual person?

Part of me is laughing at the fact I'm getting frustrated because my tv isn't working and the other half is get off your **bleep** and go something productive...like get an early night! All the best with conversing 🙂

Having lost Sky TV on my Puck since yesterday afternoon. I have followed the instructions to reset/reboot the Puck. Constantly getting stuck on PIN error despite resetting it. Very frustrating with little support and updates on when the outage will be resolved. Unable to speak to anyone. When is this going to be fixed?
@AndyNH1 Sky have advised that when you get to the part that want you to enter a PIN do not enter it but switch off your puck at the power socket instead and then reboot it. Start the process again and give it a try as it worked for me.

I tried so many times to do what the Sky reset said and nothing happend but then I read this post which I am reposting. I have highlighed what worked for me. I was not holding the button down until the SKY logo came on. Seriously it was at least 5 minutes! Suddently the Sky TV sign came on, I stopped pressing it and again waited thinking nothing was happening. Then suddenly after 10 minutes it started the download. Then once the download was done I had to pair my remote again by pressing 1 and 3. Then I got the code, entered it on the website on my laptop and had to enter my pin. Its now on after 24 hours off.
Switch the Tv off at the wall.
Hold the Standby button on the side of the tv and switch the Tv back on at the wall. Keep the Standby button pressed on until you see the red light at the front of the Tv flash and Sky logo is on the Tv.
The Tv will then start down loading the latest software which can take 5-10 minutes.
Only down side to this process is you will have to setup your tv again by pressing 1&3 on remote to pair your remote to the tv.
Once you have done this you will have to go on your phone or table, be logged in to your Sky account and go to Sky.com/activate. This is where you can enter the numbers on the tv screen to activate your Sky Glass again on to your account.
Just follow the installation instructions to get your Tv up and running again.

I am unable to even get a screen that would even allow me to reset the puck. Any ideas?

My 65inch started up this morning after following the reset process on the sky website. Been fine all day, numerous turn offs and ons. Our puks have been unaffected.

Also still going through this issue...
As if this is something they cannot fix within a few hours
Missed all the football of which we pay £50 a month for
Have been on hold on the phone 3 times and hung up after 40 minutes each time
Complete joke!
