My remote started beeping last night on its own now isn't letting me use any buttons other then volume and button to turn on thr television?

@Fay100 I'm not aware that the Sky+ remote has the functionality to make sound. Do you have Sky Q?

Our remote just started beeping!!! It's so strange!!! It's not working now.

Did you ever figure out why it started to beep?

Sky+ remotes don't beep. Do you have Sky Q?

My Sky+ box wouldnt come out of standby tonight and my remote has stopped working. What's going on,  some 'update' to make us move to Sky Q ???

Nope, no update. See Sky's help here: https://www.sky.com/help/articles/sky-plus-box-stuck-on-standby

Thanks I got the box out of standby.

But the channels are now wrong  ie. choosing 401 for Sky Sports 1 HD brings on 859 and vice versa !

Any ideas ?

Are you using the remote to do this or an app on your phone because if it is the app then the channels are reversed if you are using the TV Guide.

[FastEddie1]

Yes, I'm having to use the App as my remote has also stopped working.

It's a very strange coincidence that the box and the remote both went at the same time...

Has anyone resolved this issue?

My sky Q remote has done the same thing. 

In the middle of the night it started beeping as though the find remote button had been pressed. By the time I had got down stairs it stopped. In the morning it was not working. I had to re-pair the remote to the box.

Try asking in the Sky Q forum, no one with Sky+ has a Sky Q remote!

Ok thanks. I just searched on google if anyone had the same problem and the thread came up. 
I thought that being on a help forum on the sky website there may be sky engineers on here to help not just people with the old sky+ boxes. 
I think I'll just ring sky and get help from the engineers.
