You get a message saying you are now active.
But the sky glass holds still on the page with the activation code and wont move forward....?
On the page where you enter the code, you should see some kind of back or similar key on the page ( not the browser back key), you need to do that for it to progress on screen.
You may need to scroll up and down the page to find that.

That is the problem we ar e discussing on here that many customers are having.
This is the resolution that works, that you have to do.
It has worked for many Sky Stream and Sky Glass TV customers over the last four days with the issue.
Follow the procedure exactly as described in post 2 of this thread, flagged as the Answer post from Sky.
Try holding down the button for as long as possible, it won't harm keeping it pressed longer than mentioned, but release when you see the blue screen instructions on screen.

Very unwise. Sky won't contact you. Cancelling your payment method will increase your problems. Sky services (when this is fixed) will be restricted, late payment fees will be added, you won't be able to speak to Sky, you won't be able to cancel and continued non payment will result in Sky passing the debt to a Debt Recovery company which will ultimately affect your credit score.

It has worked for many Sky Stream puck customers like yourself over the last three days with the issue. The issue is affecting Sky Glass TV and Sky Stream customers

Thank u for the reply it's just frustrating. Also under their terms and conditions of contract they must provide an acceptable level of service and for what we pay for the basic level of tv broadband ect which they are not. We understand problems occur but going 3 days without a paid for service for most is unacceptable

Thanks for the suggestion Lettice.
Unfortunately the only thing I can find is the big blue 'back to devices' button.
I hit that and nothing happening still, but thanks anyhoo,

I've tried using an Ethernet connection but it doesn't work. As soon as I plug the puck back into my TV it goes into "flashing light" mode.
When the ethernet was plugged in did you run the reset procedure again, exactly as before?

Many thanks for your advice on quoting.
I've followed the "official" solution to the letter a number of times using an Ethernet cable. Sometimes nothing, sometimes the software downloads, verifies, downloads again and then goes into "flashing White light" mode. Sometimes I don't even get that far..
Once again, many thanks for all your help. I think it says a gread deal for Sky's apology for "Customer Service" that they have to place such a heavy reliance on customers like yourselves to support other customers.
Does anybody know of an alternative for CNN, Bloomberg and CNBC? Then I could stop using Sky altogether.

Yes that is it.
I would suggest trying the restart procedure again and hit that back button.
After a time the code runs out, so may need a retry.
