@KK44  When it says upgrade your box it actually means you would need to switch to sky Q glass or stream to continue receiving sky tv services 

 

unless you have sky protect insurance you would need to source and pay an independent contractor to come out and see if they can fix your issue if you don't want to switch products 

 

If you want to upgrade products give sky a call and they will gladly help you out

Re: Been advised to update the box

Thank you for your advice.

I have no problem to upgrade to whatever Sky would suggest, just that it seems I'm going around the circle and couldn't get the correct customer service no. to get help, while I'm sitting in front of the tv looking at the screen that says "your box is still initialising " since last night, to be honest 😫

@KK44 follow Sky's help for 'no satellite signal' here (that's the reason why you're seeing the 'initialising' error). At the end it will give you the option to upgrade to Sky Q for free online: https://www.sky.com/help/articles/sky-tv-no-satellite-signal-sky-plus

 

Issues with your dish will be fixed at no cost to you as part of the Sky Q installation.
