Totally agree. The reason we stuck with sky is because of the old style tv guide which was intuitive and easy to navigate compared to my dads Virgin package.  I also agree about the remote it's awful to use. 
just watching a recording of only connect and when we pause the pause bar blanks out the part of the screen we wanted to see. It's beyond irritating that we are now locked into this deal. I guarantee we will will cancel on renewal. 


@Phil129 if you press the dismiss button (the button to the left of the home button) it will remove the banner that comes up when you pause

It is a really awful system compared with the old sky. The remote control I simply want to throw at whichever idiot designed it and thought the home button, smack bang in the middle of the remote was a good idea and to put the play and pause button at the top out of the way. I have had the control now for over a year and still regret ever swapping. It is just so user unfriendly.


Completely agree on the positioning of the pause button. Bizarre design choice.
