I've only had my Sky Q for a couple of months and the remote has cracked completely around the whole body
Has anyone else experienced this?

Hi @DonZ157
Sounds like mechanical damage.
Check the following link and it will lead to a form for a replacement remote.

In the meantime if you have an Apple device with Sky Go you can set up a virtual remote to control your Q boxes.
See following link.

@DonZ157 - yes, I have had exactly the same issue. I got SkyQ a few months back, and slowly but surely a load of hairline cracks are appearing all round the body of the remote, and pieces are falling off.

I have exactly the same issue, upgraded to Sky Q a couple of months ago and the remote back is disintegrating. Several hairline cracks and now 4 bits have dropped out.

If you follow this link it’ll send you to a form to request a replacement (apparently this is not available to customers in the ROI).

It may be quicker to purchase a new remote from a retailer or larger supermarket. If you do that as well as the above you’ll have a spare.
