Multiple calls to agents, none of whom could own my issue and resolve it. My account has been corrupted following a previous cancellation of a Sky Q order due to the engineer who visited stating the advice I'd been given by the sales and technical teams, was incorrect. Multiple assurances followed that my account would be cleaned up. However, I experienced seceral repeat issues of my service being blocked. My account apoears still to have issues causing problems with my latest order. I spent hours on the phone this week and am very unhappy that I can not have an engineer call to install my Sky Q boxes for 4 werks. The agent I spoke to was not able to dealcwith the issue of ensuring I am mot billed for the service I ambpaying for now that my Sky+ HD box has failed. It is hugely anniying and shows Sky to have very little customer focus. I look forward to a manager resolving this quickly for me.

Billing continues throughout a fault. Once the issue has been sorted you could ask for a credit to be added to your account for the amount of time it's taken.

A manager won't see or respond to your post. In fact staff on the Community won't know who you are as your Community log in is not connected to your actual Sky accounts.

That will likely be the next engineer available. As already noted, they will not stop billing you but may consider a credit after the issue has been resolved.
The Sky+ box is owed by you and not supported by Sky - arguably, it's not their fault you cannot receive the services. You could source a replacement box of your own (from well known auction sites for example) - you don't have to move to Q.

Sky is in the process of reducing their historic 'dish, cable & box' installation workforce as part of the transition to streaming.
