Anyone know how to programme the Sky Q remote to switch on/off the TV? We have a Samsung circa 2 years old and the Sky engineer said he had programmed it so we wouldn't need the TV remote but it doesn't seem to work!
Hold down the power button for a couple of seconds.If they do, then power should work too. If they don't then you need to reprogram the remote.
I cancelled my Sky package earlier this month (box sets package which I had for half price for 10 months) as I just don't watch it anymore.
However, I came across a deal that was tweeted by Paul O'Brian (runs the MoDaCo site) giving a link that would get you free Sky Q for 18 months with the original package via Hughes. Phoned them up on Monday and within 5 minutes had it all sorted, installation taking place on Monday! Got my Q card delivered Wednesday, emails from Sky to confirm installation and absolutely zero cost for 18 months.

I also saw it on hotukdeals but it appears to have been taken down now, probably due to the response they got so not sure if it is still available.

Forgot to add that Hughes were offering the full package and the 1tb box for £35 a month for 18 months and the 2tb box (again with full package) for £47 a month.
I also think the variety package was £10 a month and box sets was £16 a month.
Yeh that's the friends and family deal out at the minute.I also think the variety package was £10 a month and box sets was £16 a month.

My 'friend' has emailed me an offer - 2TB Sky Q box for £60 and £12 extra a month on top of what I am already paying (£82.99 per month currently for Sky+HD, Sky Fibre and line rental).
That a good deal?
I would suggest calling Hughes and seeing what they can offerThat a good deal?

Your communal system may have been upgraded to accept Q boxes. Some will be, others wont it depends lots of factors between sky and landlords.
Your right it has.Reference turning your TV on with your Q remote, you press once to turn Q on,and press/hold o turn your TV on ,
Bottom left button flicks between your AV channels
You might already be aware of this, but worth mentioning I thought
Mine turns the telly and sound bar on just by turning on the Q box. To switch off it's a brief off for the Q box then a longer off for the telly.
As an aside, and in reply to my previous post on here, I now have ultra HD back. It seems that the last update cured whatever the problem was so I can now watch and download ultra HD content (the latest Star Trek film looks superb) so it's all good this end now.
