@catlady3 

That may relate to it not affecting all Sky Q customers. Acknowledged on Page 2, post 29.

@catlady3 @WessexCrusader  This has also now been flagged for skys attention but whether anything gets posted is another matter

Re: Cannot connect to Activation Server error message

Same problem. Reset, unplugged everything. Reinputted broadband code, taken out card from main sky box. Still cannot connect to activation server. Instructions by Sky bot not comply with my menus. 

can't book an engineer. Sky sucks.
