7 engineers have been booked and 7 times they have not shown up to my 80year old parents who have be

My parents have been waiting since June for an engineer to put in sky Q and we have booked 7 engineers and they don't show. My parents have been with sky for 18years. The multi screen hasn't worked for months. I have to spend an hour every time on the phone explaining to 3 different people for them to book another engineer, for him NOT to turn up. We have raised a compliant and heard nothing. We don't get a message or email saying the engineer is on his way or he has cancelled it. But we do get a text asking to vote how the phone call to sky went. If this cannot be resolved i will go to Ofcom.

Urgent Notice: as of 29th October 2024 you will no longer be able to pair your viewing card to a Sky+/Sky+HD box that the card is not already paired to, so if your Sky box breaks you cannot replace it and you'll need to move to either Sky Q, Sky Glass or Sky Stream to access Sky content

A recent change ~ Customers who book an engineer for their Sky Q equipment now won't get a call to give information about their visit. Instead, customers will receive a tracking link on the day of the visit. This will show when their engineer is expected to arrive.

 

I presume that applies to new installs too.,

Has every time been an actual no-show, or did an early visit identify a problematic installation and the need for a specialist team?

They turned up once with inly 1 box but needed 2 otherwise the multi room wouldnt work, so arranged to come back but didn't show and another 7 engineers booked but didnt show. Endless phone calls to sky. Who just book another.

If there isn't a visit scheduled for today you/they won't be able to track it.

No as the engineer said he would come back with 2 boxes otherwise the other television without the sky Q wouldn't work. It did state 2 boxes on the order.  But he never came back.
