Hi Barry,
No problem. I rang them yesterday and they said that Never Miss was not going
to be replaced, but there is no accessible alternative for it, so I think they
should bring it back.
Even in the Sky Go app, you can’t have it remind you of new series of
programmes that you are watching.
Please pass it on.
Thanks.
All the best
Steve

Hi Steve
I am actually working with Sky, user testing apps and websites for
accessibility. Before you ask, I cannot give out her contact details. Her
role is internal and they have alternative avenues to report issues.
I have just read your message about the Sky feature, so I’ll let her know and
will get back to you on this too.
Cheers

Hi Barry,
How did you get hold of the accessibility manager?
There is another problem with Sky, and that is they have, or seem to have,
removed Never Miss. This was a great feature, it used to Email you when
programmes you chose had new series.
If you now go to http://www.sky.com/nevermiss, you get the following:-
Never miss out
There's an even better way to know when new series begin or return from a
break, and when classic movies and box-office hits are on TV.
On Sky Q, simply select Home and then TV Guide, and scroll up to New Series
to find the shows recommended for you.
On Sky+, select New Series from the Top Picks area.
This of course, is no use to us. The Sky Go or Sky Q apps also don’t have New
Series in Top Picks as the TV does.
If anyone knows how to find out what new series are on in a given week, do
please tell.
All the best
Steve

I’ve talked to Sky’s accessibility Manager about this. She conveys her sincere
apologies on behalf of Sky and assures me that she is tracking down who is
responsible and will make sure that they put it right as soon as possible.

hi guys I just want to point out that if you have a q box instead of the older
boxes the 996 channel will work. if you have the older boxes it doesn’t work
any more. I have been informed that they will change this but I wouldn’t hold
your breath. Janet

hello all,
since channel 996 is still not working, is there an easy way to get an up to
date list of sky channel numbers, as sky seem to have messed about with a lot
of them again, and it is proving next to impossible to find my usual channels
with out the good old 996.
