I've moved your post to the Sky Q board as that's the equipment you have mentioned. As stated above call again when the lines reopen this morning.
If you do end up needing a new box it might be via a 'doorstep box swap' whereby a courier company (DPD in the UK) deliver a new box and take your faulty box away so remember to remove the viewing card from the old box before it disappears into the van.

@DJ1986 It's unlikely Sky are refusing to take your call, it's more likely you've called at a busy time.
Best call back 1st this morning and remain on the line.

Welcome to the Community - it's great to have you onboard 😊
I'm sorry to hear of your initial experience and for the problem with your box. Can I ask if you managed to make the courier aware of the problem with the box?
I'm glad that we've got you back up and running again, in such a short period of time.

HI Kev yes i did i personally think it was just due to age i had the same sky box for over 5years and think it had just had its time i thought i would be waiting days if not at least week before getting a new sky box but the fact that they had me up and running in under 12 hours from order to delviery is the bet service iv ever received and the quickest wants to take the post down as i feel sky really nailed this one but someone here advised me once a thing gors up on the community board it cant come down for some reason.

Don't worry about your post being removed. Frustration happens to all of us, and I'd have been annoyed at being disconnected as well. Hopefully no-one else has this fault, however your post may help others in the future 😊

Thank you kev the most frustrating thing of all is once the sky Q boxes all had the connection issue mine stopped working all together so as i said i put it down to length of time i have had the box etc but not being able to speak to someone when i had real issue with the box was the most frustrating thing to me.
