I have the ' Sorry, because of a technical issue, you're currently experiencing a limited service. Please be assured that we're working hard to fix the problem. ' message on my sky glass screen. I've done all the suggestions, switched off at the plug etc. but nothing is working. My broadband is down at the moment so is this the issue ? I can't even get to any settings page , it's just stuck on this message.

Leave it switched off at the plug for half an hour and then try to reboot it. But without broadband you won't get any service at all, unless you attach an aerial to the back of the TV and can access the backup Freeview tuner.

I've switched it off & still stays the same. @Padam_Padam , thank you I didn't know there's a back up Freeview, guess I need to find an aerial now 😭

Yeah as it's a streaming platform it will be useless if the broadband is down, that's the main issue with everything moving to streaming. That's one of the reasons the ariel socket was added for these circumstances and so customers can still use it as a TV should they not have a Sky subscription.

Thank you . I wish it wasn't stuck on this screen , I can't even get to Network Settings to try and use hotspot or mini hub connection.

Yeah the only way to get around that may be a factory reset, which is probably overkill just for a broadband outage.
if you press the home button a few times, does that not even load a portion of the Home Screen so you can get to the settings?

No, it doesn't do anything. The only access I can gain to a different action is the 3 dots button on the remote and even then it's just the menu that shows search , audio output etc.
