I have a persistent problem with pixelated screen and intermittent sound cut out particularly on sky sports. I have tried all the usual remedies. Any suggestions please?

Pixellated pictures on live TV are often the sign of a signal fault. If you've rebooted your box once, then there's likely a fault somewhere, so this will need VM to intervene. The recent hot weather country-wide may well have put some borderline-spec installs out-of-spec and cause these symptoms - this is no surprise.
First check the automated faults line for any existing issues in your area that could be the cause: 0800 5610061. If nothing's reported, assume VM don't know about your fault and ideally you'll need to call them.
150 from a VM phone, 0345 4541111 from any other phone - choose the options for "I have a fault with my TV service". Alternatively you can wait on here for staff to respond, which may take a day or so.
