You will need to phone to cancel your tv subscription as it cannot be done on the forum.
Ask for the Loyalty team.

Do this anyway even if the following works, which may help you recover your box, albeit in the short term as they are approaching end of life now.
Try a soft reset. To do this hold the power button on the front for around 10 seconds and the box should restart.
If this doesn't work then try a YouView Maintenance Reset (https://community.talktalk.co.uk/t5/Articles/How-to-find-maintenance-mode/ta-p/1429347)?
Try the Factory Reset keep recording option.
You will then need to reset your personal settings (such as parental controls / Set antenna Out to On in Settings: Picture and Sound / Surround Sound etc.) and also reset your scheduled recordings (might be worth taking a note of future recordings before doing this so you don’t miss any).
If all else fails then try a full factory reset from the settings menu you've just used above. You will lose your recordings though
Hope it works.
