Netflix app opening randomly, whilst watching other content

[marie_25]

Hello, 

My sky box keeps randomly switching to Netflix. No one has selected the app, we could be midway through a movie and it just randomly opens! 

Help!

Is it the Netflix app on your Sky Q box which is opening, or is it the Netflix app on your smart TV which is opening?

Hello, it's the app on the actual sky box, the one I'm logged into etc. 

Thanks

Same for me too, only started doing it yesterday

This is happening here, too. Can someone from Sky please respond?

I'm having this problem too. Any solutions?

Can someone at this horrible company actually reply ? I have this issue too and I'm about to hop the box off a wall at this point 😂😂 it's clearly a bug in the system that you lot can't be bothered to repair maybe get your team to evaluate this and bring out an efficient software update?

@Hawhawhaw Afraid you are not contacting Sky's customer services on here, this is a customer to customer forum where customers help each other.
