Recently started to get pixelation occasionally for first time
BT fibre excellent very fast
Today suddenly had a huge overlay of yellow covering around 80% of the screen !
Remaining 20% is normal colour of screen
Appears on all channels
Sky community suggests new screen as can't be corrected by reset
Not sure if they send out engineers / costs etc ?
Bit unknown
Don't hold out much hope from Sky customer services esp as warranty has expire 😞
Whats best thing to do ?
Thx

Hi I didnt think that would solve things
I thought Sky had engineers who can pay
I wouldn't buy another one

Remove the plug from the wall for a few minutes then plug back in and allow the TV to reboot. If this doesn't clear it you'll need to ring Sky for further troubleshooting.
If you are outside your 2 year warranty period and do not have any form of paid for extended warranty you'll need to continue to pay off anything you still owe for the TV and buy a new one.

There's no 'engineer' support for Glass: that's a business model for the legacy satellite television platforms which doesn't apply to online content delivery.
Historically the reason Sky had a national fleet of installers was it's not particularly reasonable to expect householders to put up their own satellite dishes...
