Remove Channels (not from guide or contract)
I've a new SKY Q box, and was wondering if it would be possible to remove channels from use of the up/down buttons.
I don't want to remove them from the guide, I've done that in favourites.
I don't want to remove them from my contract because I'm on a basic plan.
I want to remove all the channels I never watch when I'm using the up/down buttons on the remote.
For example, I never watch channel 100, but I do watch channels 99 and 101. When I'm using the remote up/down buttons, I want to go directly from 99 to 101, bypassing 100.
Thanks.

No, that's not possible. Strangely enough, Sky would prefer to advertise what's available through increasing the subscription.
BT Halo 3+ Ultrafast FTTP (500Mbs), BT Smart Hub 2

Your post has me somewhat confused. On Sky Q there isn't a channel 100 in the epg. The favourites run from 1 to 99 then the proper epg starts at 101 which is BBC One. Not sure if it's different if you're in the ROI though.

hi @liz1935
Do you have more than 90+ favourites ?
If you select your channels by using their favourite number then the up/ down arrows will take you between them just like thay are together in the Guide
