Re: Unable to link account
You shouldn't have a Sky Q and Sky Glass both on your account so what do you have ?

Re: Unable to link account
When going through the activation process it can help to plug the device into your router with an Ethernet cable
once it's activated and running you can then remove the Ethernet cable and connect via WiFi

the general advice is against factory restoring the glass tv without having been prompted by sky as it can permanently unlink your tv from your account (as has happened in your case). From memory you will need to be transferred through to the correct department on Skys help team to be able to resolve this issue. I can escalate your post to the customer line help team if you wish ?
