Sky Cinema gone, asking me to upgrade
Hi
I signed up to sky cinema for a year on 25th October, found out yesterday the channels are gone and is asking me to upgrade. Found lots of threads of this in the forums but no solution.
Done a software reset
Also Plugged the sky Q box out for 30 secs and in again
No joy
Please advise

@Cian85 2 things to try if you hanen't already
first
Have you tried rebooting your main Q box ie
putting your box into Standby then switching it off at the wall for 30 seconds
switch it back on then follow the on screen instructions
second
You could try refreshing your viewing card by pressing home > settings > system info > viewing card number > setup > viewing card setup press select to trigger a callback don't worry nothing to do with your phone its only Sky's terminology this will be done over the internet
failing that you would have to contact sky

Re: Sky Cinema gone, asking me to upgrade
Contacted sky and the problem still persists. I dont think the lady on the phone really understood what I was talking about. Can this be sorted by a Sky tech here?

@Cian85 afraid we are customers like yourself, this is a customer to customer forum where customers help each other. Afraid you will need to persevere with contacting Sky
