    So you can watch all your channels fine, the only problem your having is that you cant see the display numbers. Where did you get it as it should be still under warranty.

    Edit,

    Yes you should be able to see channel number on the front, Take the lid off with the power turned off and push the cable from the display all the way down on the board, they do sometimes come loose.

    Have you taken the protective film off the front of the box? also clean your LED on the remote and on the sensor screen on your box.

    Apart from checking the plug connections again there's very little you can do, borrow / buy another remote, renew batteries with a good quality type (Duracell), or sit closer to your box LOL.

    Sorry mate there's very little you can do about it apart from the obvious.
