BT Sport without sky subscription

Hi
I have recently cancelled my Sky subs and just going to pay for the £10 a month ability to record but wanted to still be able to view BT Sports.  Reading online and speaking to advisors leave s me wondering if it will actually work or not.  I have read that it should work if you have freesat from SKy but im ot sure if it will work if i have just got the record facuility enabled.   I wont find out until June when i get cut off.  Can anyone advise?

Not any more, for UK viewers. They have been moved.

  • Cant get BT Sport on Sky?

    Can I get a BT Sport on Sky Platform without being a sky subscription customer?
    I have sky as freesat platform and had old viewing card and get all the free channels fine, I regestered the card online but on day the BT Sport the card was not activated.
    I spoke to BT customer support as was also having problem getting online viewing working too (a problem with verifiying my account after having it merged so I could use BT Sport online), this has now been resolved and BT Sport online is working fine (starting working fine yesterday), after this conversation I got a new viewing card through post apparently from SKY although not sure how or why,  this card is now registerd with BT Sport as viewing card to use apparently. Did BT Sport instigate this as SKY denies sending one out?
    However I am getting message that it is incorrect card for box message on have to subscibe channels and the BT sport ones, yesterday I tried the pair box with card as suggested by BT Sport help sections online, entered the info and still no inprovement. Do I need to wait bit logner for this to work?
    In between times I also contacted sky about the card, and they seem know nothing the new card and it's not registered on their system.
    I tried reregistered old viewing card on BT Sport but it says card not currently active and check if i have newer one.
    I'm not sure what i can do next, should I wait bit longer for the paring to complete or do I need to do something else?

    That's what they said
    It came after had accounts merged, I had originally registered my old viewing card and this was mentioned in the email when started new year contract with newly merged account.
    However since then the new card has been registered with BT, im not sure how this happened don't remember mentioning this new card number to anyone at BT, however may of tried registering new card online at some point, hard to remember now after all that has happened since does get confusing as was having problem of verifying me as account holder on newly formed merged account. So trying lots of things to get things working.
    Thing is I can't reregister the old card with BT online now, it says its not active.
    I'm not sure whether I should persue trying to get the old card reregistered or try getting this new card working, as not been SKY subscriber for over 6/7 years, never had a new card even when they said may lose channels a few years back, the old card is very old a blue one. New one is white.
    For all I know neither card may not be active one (as far as sky are concerned), as you can watch freeview sky without card if you dont do any updates. I assume the card reloads channels available on it should a reset or crash occur and need to update box? Not that I'm and expert on these things
    Just another thing, would I need box connected to phone line for new channels to be added?  I know it allows you to use interactive services and is required if you have subscription with multi-room, but not sure if needed for anything else, I could temporarily connect one if needed, but phone port is on opposite side of room to tv, so having permenant connection would be tricky, reason why one is not connected atm.

  • BT Sport through Sky Box question?

    I am thinking of getting BT broadband so I get the free BT Sport HD through my Sky box.
    My question is do I need a Sky subscription for it to work?
    I am now out of subscription but my sky box still works and I have my viewing card number still..
    Thanks

    I can answer that in this miasma of confusion. You don't need a Sky sub. You won't be able to record of course.

  • Can I buy After Effects without an subscription?

    Hi,
         I want to know if I can buy After Effects without any subscription. Can I found this program in any store in Canada? I want to start to edit some some stuff for my Youtube channel. I really need to know this. I want to buy it but I won't buy it with the subscription thing. I only want Adobe After Effects, I don't won't any program with it and stuff like that.
    Thanks you in advance, hope you can answer me fast.
    Visken

    If you want to EDIT the After Effects is the wrong program. If you want to create effects shots or motion graphics shots then After Effects is a very powerful tool for very specific effects and short sequences. Using After Effects as your editing program is like trying to drive nails with a screwdriver. Very slow and inefficient.
    You can buy a perpetual license for CS6 or a subscription for just AE.

  • I don't want my pictures on a web server. Can I use Elements version 13 without a subscription??

    I don't want my pictures on a web server. Can I use Elements version 13 without a subscription??

    Yes you can use Elements without subscription.
    Links to the cloud only happen if you decide to use mobile albums, and the free storage. But that is optional.

  • Persisted messages without durable subscriptions

    Does weblogic JMS support PERSISTED MESSAGES without durable subscriptions. As per jms spec message persistence does make sense even without durable subscriptions in case when the JMS server fails before a message is sent and acknowledged.
              "A JMS provider must deliver a PERSISTENT message once-and-only-once. This means a JMS provider failure must not cause it to be lost and it must not deliver it twice."
              This implies that a persisted message will be persisted before sending and if JMS server fails, it resends the message to available consumers when server is back up and has nothing to do with durable/non-durable subscriptions.
              Please let me know what you guys think and if it is supported in weblogic JMS.
              Thanks,
              -Raj

    - Topics require durable subcriptions to persist messages. This is a standard part of the JMS API. Nondurable subscribers have absolutely no need for persistence by definition - as such subscriptions exist solely for the life of the client's connection.
              - And yes, queues support persistence. This is required by the JMS spec, which BEA fully implements.
              - True "exactly-once" behavior usually requires the use of transactions in conjunction with JMS. This ensures that the message being processed and any related application work either atomically all fails or all succeeds.
              The above applies to all JMS vendors.

  • Deletion of podcasts without deleting subscriptions ??

    I just installed a new version of itunes and am unable to list podcasts without the subscriptions ie I can't delete all my podcasts after transferring to my ipod without deleting the subscriptions.
    How do I list podcasts independently of subscriptions?

    Good idea, but I looked and podcasts were already checked. I unchecked everything else, but the podcast still only appear with the subscriptions.
    Before there was a "Library" function showing everything at once (and this would be great now as I'd be able to look at it by date of download). Then you could check genre = 'podcasts' and see only the podcasts (not the subscriptions) but still within the "library" function. [There was a separate category 'podcasts' showing the subscriptions to use for updating.]
    It's that general "library" function showing all or a subcategory that they removed.
    I've managed to get around this by deleting stuff in the folder in windows, but it all still shows up in itunes, and it's a klunky 'fix'.
    thanks for your replies,

  • BT Sport with Sky Multiroom

    So the nice man I just phoned at BT tells me that BT Sport isn't available on sky multiroom. I thought he was kidding. I've got BT Broadband, (Unfortunately - Most reliable Internet connetion my left bum cheek) so the service should be free anyway. Alas, I even offered to pay for the additional box to be registered but apparently it can't be done. So can someone explain what the technical reason for this is? It's hardly an uncommon set up for a household to have more than one sky box, so surely this problem was not an oversight? I half expected it to be a money spinner for BT but for once I couldn't even pay you for your poor service.
    In any case, you've given me the choice of watching the Liverpool game over your dreadful internet connection or the pain of watching Celtic with my dad in the living room. Saturday ruined.

    If BT's excuse is that it's too expensive, they should levy a charge so they break even - simples.
    It's not BT's choice. A commercial agreement is needed and one cannot be reached at a price that makes economic sense. 
    BTW "simples" just makes you sound like an idiot.  Have you ever thought of trying to act and speak like an adult?
    Of course one could be reached if BT had the will to do it. It would obviously cheaper than a full 2nd package which BT have also failed to offer.
    BTW an ad hominem attack is the last resort of a lost argument
    In this case it's just a matter of finding people who quote a puppet from a TV advert in the mistaken belief that it makes them sound clever or pithy, ever so slightly immature and shallow. You're one of about a million posters who do it across the web, there's nothing profound, wise, sassy, original, or witty about it. 
    A deal has not been reached because the negotiations have failed to produce a price BT are happy with. 
    That might change, but it also might not and people may find that this is one of those instances in life where stomping feet, posting stroppiness on forums and threatening to go elsewhere won't produce the result they want. 
    As for a second subscription, without the access to Sky's multiroom authentication system there's no way BT could be sure the second cards were being used in the addresses they're registered to. There's zip reason for them to take the chance.

  • BT Sport on Sky

    Forgive me if this has been asked before, but is it still possible to get BT Sport for free if the BT Infinity package is in my name but the Sky viewing card/subscription is in my partners name at the same address?
    Any help with this would be appreciated.

    A very interesting question. I would say yes. From discussion I have had with BT reps, in order to sign-up for BT Sport, they only need a viewing card number, no details about subscriptions are required.

  • No Multi-Room for BT Sport on Sky?

  • Does BT Sport On Sky Auto Cancel?

    I've been a subscriber through SKY since BT Sport started but have now changed to BT for my Fibre too. I remember when first signing up BT Sport was mentioned and i said something along the lines that i already had it through SKY (i relly can't remember the exact way it was worded). 
    Now obviously as i should now receive it for free through the app/PC i don't need it on SKY anymore and can save myself £16.50 a month, so will it automatically finish on SKY or is there something i need to do to cancel it? Thanks.

    I would be proactive and cancel to make sure. Try. 0800 432 0025

  • BT sport on sky platform

    Moving into a new property and Looking to buy BT broadband to include BT sport and have it on the sky platform but i have not yet had either installed, do i need to have the sky installed before the broadband so i can add BT sport straight away or can i get the broadband installed first and add BT sport to the sky platform at a later date once that is also installed?
    thanks in advance for your help  

    If you are going to watch it on the SKY Platform you will need to have SKY Installed before you can order it because you will need the SKY viewing card number.
