Why does this forum keep switching from English to French?

 

I have just received my Telus TV Digital Box to replace my old Media Box. I have completed the installation using ethernet cable. I have no Live TV channels. Other services like Netflix and On Demand work OK. Just no Live TV channels. Any help? Thank you.

Thanks for your reply. Tech support should be able to resolve, based on what you describe. You are probably logged in appropriately, but if you see 'N/A' under account info, it's likely that your new box is not connected to your TV account properly. If you have any further issues, please respond here and we can try to look into it.

Hi @mgb1aaa 

 

Can't help with the language settings on this site...but there is an EN/FR toggle in the top right of your screen. Mine defaults to EN.

 

For the new box, to confirm - when you navigate to 'Live TV' - you don't see anything? Or can you see the surf zones (Guide, Major networks, etc.) but nothing is playable? What happens when you press the guide button on your remote? Does the guide load but nothing is playable, or does the guide not load at all?

 

It sounds like there may be an issue with the connection between your account and the device, which should be able to be resolved by chatting in or calling in to technical support.

Thanks. The surf zone headings display, but there are no titles. The guide does not load. I think what’s happening is that I’m not logged in, therefore Pik doesn’t know who I am, so it can’t present any titles. I have done the log in, even switched accounts, even deliberately entered an incorrect login which it rejected. My correct logins are accepted. Under account info, it says N/A for username, so that’s why I think I’m not logged in.

I have called technical support. They’re on the case. Maybe.

Thanks. I was on the phone for an hour with them and they appear stumped. They did say others have reported the same problem. I'm waiting on a callback.

I recall the same issue when my PikTV device arrived. The account had to be properly set up for the new device, and there was a few behind the scenes steps which had to occur.

Thank you that's helpful. Telus is still working on it. I wonder if they know this.
