Hello, I'm ready for throwing my Sky Q box in the bin and cancelling everything. I'm paying for UHD but can't view it, every time I'm told to upgrade. It's been going on for over 4 months now. I've lost patience with customer services. All the settings are corrrect and I've done everything else they've asked me to do. I still get the same message, I'd appreciate any help anyone can offer please.

What are you trying to watch is it one of the sports channels & is it when going to say SKy Sports ME UHD or is it when pressing the red button - or is it just with Movies or entertainment downloads ?
