Strange onscreen message

I keep receiving on screen messages referring me to sky.com/account & I will lose my Sky channels ! My account is up to date so I spoke to Sky who stated it might be a "glitch" & advised me to reboot the box. This did not clear the message. Anyone else had this problem?

Re: Strange onscreen message

After a lot of backwards & forwards with Sky it appears there is no fix for this problem.They even suggested Sky Q as a replacement  which it appears is not now supplied to new customers . Having been with them since they started, all very disappointing.

@mottflame  Sky Q is still very much available but you have to call to order

Re: Messages on my sky tv

Sorry to resurrect this one but I STILL am having exactly the same problem.Sky unable to resolve after numerous messages & calls. All they could do was to suggest switching to Sky Q ! Not quite the answer I was expecting after 37 years : they called it a "glitch".
