I have had to return three times in the past six or so weeks to long standing clients that have had a SkyQ system installed, mainly to clean up after the upgrade 'engineers'.
In each instance I have been asked to dispose of the Sky HD box and other paraphenalia that comes with it since it is always left behind. However whilst I can usually find a home for the HD boxes, or at least the hard drives, the last three have absolutely no output from them, beyond the 'Sky+HD initialising, please wait' screen.
Even a forced upgrade doesn't work.
So am I just unlucky in getting a row of power supply problematic boxes - all different models btw - or is Sky now turning the old receivers off before the system is upgraded ?
