@Ashbridge do you mean Prime app on SKY Q or just another device (e.g. firestick)
Do you have subs to netflix or Disney+ etc and if so do you have problems using these on SKY Q
Please can you also let us know which box you have
@Jenjen911 likewise please can you advise which box you have ?

Re: Picture freezing Sky Sports action
@Ashbridge thanks for confirming that Prime works OK on your box but I would appreciate you confirming the box verion when you can
Many thanks @Jenjen911
We have had a few reports of problems with customers watching red button matches on the 32Cxxxx - non UHD boxes which has been reported to SKY & we are awaiting the results of their investigations.
I will pass these reports on

Re: Sky Sports + Freezing
We had the same problem trying to watch the Norwich v Birmingham game last night. It was awful, kept freezing then stuttering. Kicked us out completely so we missed the first goal. It stuttered and froze so many times we got to full time 12 minutes after the whistle went! I will check the hardware version when I get home tonight but we've had our box a while so I suspect that may be the issue. How do we go about getting a new one? It is infuriating when our friends with their illegal sticks say their coverage is fine, it certainly doesn't encourage you to keep paying high prices to sky.

Re: Sky Sports + Freezing
I have been in touch with Sky because e still have the same problem. It's NOT the Q box because it's only 2 years old. They admitted they have a problem and they are going to do their best to sort it and this will take 3-5 days and they have promised to ring me back on Monday, hopefully by then, whatever the problem is, at their end, it will be sorted. We will see. I'll post on here again if and when they ring me. If they don't ring me then I'll keep ringing them. I'm not giving up..I'm now 'on a mission'!!
