After using Sky+ succesfully for 18 months I found that I had accumulated a lot of 'Dead space' on the units hard drive - I had 24% of stored programs but found I only had 30 % of free space? - After speaking to a young lady at Sky they provided me with the following fix that you may find useful.

My Sky+ digital TV box always freezing up, and to make it work one has to disconnect the mains. The worst feature is having to ring Sky who are on a 0870 tel number, and on one session it cost £3:28. Quick fix fails so it costs more money to ring. Eventually we have an engineer coming out! Mir ...

I ordered Sky+ multi-room at the beginning of December. The engineer came on the 8th February as expected. He said he needed 2 men to do the job. He said the next available time was the 15th of March!!

The Sky+ Box worked excellently for the first twelve months after that things started going wrong, the programs that had been recorded were of very poor quality and often without sound, after many many phone calls and resets I finally had to pay for an engineer visit and so far no problems. Apparent ...

Hi all, I have spoken with a Sky engineer today at my home and you know what to do if your Sky+ is acting up? 1. Try a major software download reset, unplug your box then press and hold the 'back up' button on the front, plug your box back in while holding the button for over 10 seconds until a blac ...

After 10 months our Sky+ box started acting up, freezing, failed recordings, missing the ends of recordings, and the pause live TV function not working and not getting the remaining disc space right. All Sky tell you to do (after a lengthy many-buttoned phone call) is do a master reboot (therefore l ...

I bought the Sky+ box back in April 2004. It worked brilliantly for the first year, I took out the extra warranty so feel I'm covered. No so seems to be the case. Sky are really reluctant to send out an engineer. Over confident phone service technicians believe a reboot will sort out the problems. ...

Although we have been generally quite happy with Sky+, I do feel we have been let down this time. I feel that Sky have wiped their hands of us. Surely we can cancel Sky and re-introduce ourselves, and therefore get a free box!!

Overall I love my Sky+ and think the general features and funtionality they have added are great but I do think there are a few things they could have done better:
1. If you are watching TV 10 minutes behind thanks to the pause funtion then your dog treads on the remote and changes channel you loos ...
