Channel Selection Issues
When I try selecting different channels, more often than not, I just get a black screen. Often if I then turn the Sky Q box off and on, the Channel then tunes OK. But this is extremely frustrating as often it won't work.

Hi @JFG_Primrose I would start by using Sky's Check box https://www.sky.com/help/articles/sky-q-wont-turn-on

Re: Channel Selection Issues
Thanks MightyQuin......I have been through all of that and this has been going on months now and I'm reaching the end of my tether and contemplating cancelling my subscription, as it's impossible to actually speak to a human being!
Thanks anyway. JFG

Hi @JFG_Primrose Did you not read the Welcome below? This is a public community, not Sky customer services.

Re: Channel Selection Issues
Thanks MQ.....I was hoping that the vastness of Sky would monitor customer's that were disgruntled with their products/service. Clearly from what you have said, they don't.
Thanks anyway MQ.
Regards, JG
