When can I watch BT Sport after ordering broadband...

I'm confused. I ordered BT Broadband on Sunday and am sure that somewhere I saw that I could have BT Sport on my SKY digital platform within 24 hours? Two days on it hasn't happened. The helpful people on the BT phone lines have told me after taking my SKY card details that it will happen in 30 minutes, it didn't . And in a marathon hour long call this evening ended up with me being told that I would only be able to watchbBT Sport on my TV when my broadband is activated on 17th Feb. However in an email exchange with BT just now says I should be able to watch BT Sport within 24 hours of placing an order! Who is right? Help me out here, I'm losing the will to live!

Well, it's the 10th September, and my BT Broadband is finally activated; but still no BT Sport via the Sky box
I've tried to link my Sky viewing card to mt BT account online, but I just get the message 
"Good news!You've already got access to BT Sport. Watch online at btsport.com or via our Apple and Android apps. If you'd like to talk to us about upgrading your BT Sport Pack so you can watch via your TV please call us on 0800 731 0286."
What? I don't want to watch on a computer or phone. I want to watch it on my TV.
Anyway, I called the number, waited on hold for 26 minutes before being cut off.
What is going on?

  • When can I watch BT Sport via the Sky Platform

    I have just sent the following message via the BT 'email us' form, but then I received an email back saying that it could take up to 10 days to respond . Given that I only have another 3 days to cancel my order (if necessary) I thought I'd try and find an answer on here, so here's the message. Thanks in advance...
    Please inform me of the DEFINITIVE date on which I'll be able to activate BT Sport through my Sky HD box.
    It is (in theory) already active for viewing online or via the app, but I am so far unable to link my Sky viewing card because of an "outstanding order" on my account.
    I have spoken to various members of your staff (both on the 'phone and via LiveChat, for which I have the transcript) and I am being given contradictory answers. These answers have varied as follows.
    1. I will be able to activate it as soon as I place the order for BT Broadband (so I placed the order without delay on 17/08/2012).
    2. I was then told this would be 24 hours after placing said order, so I waited.
    3. Thirdly I was told that I could activate it as soon as I give you my MAC key (so I did this on 19/08/2012 as a direct result of this advice, even though I could be charged by my previous Broadband provider for using the key within 7 days).
    4. When that didn't work I was told to wait 24 hours after using the MAC key.
    5. Finally I was told that I would have to wait until after my BT Broadband goes live on 10th September.
    Answers 1-4 have turned out to be false, and as I am now starting to lose faith in the answers provided by BT, I don't hold out much hope for answer 5.
    Considering that my reason for ordering BT Broadband was so that I could get BT Sport via the Sky platform, I am increasingly under the impression that I have been mis-sold the product.
    Could you therefore please tell me EXACTLY WHEN I'll be able to activate BT Sport via the Sky platform.
    Thank you

  • Can not watch BT Sport on PC

    I have had access to BT Sport on my Sky box for a long time, but have been trying to get it on my PC since october 2013.
    I have had many hours of phone calls and remote support sesions, issue passed up to second line support.
    Some time ago they managed to fix the problem that I could not activate bt sport but I still am unable to watch as I get a message "Your BT ID is correct but you don't have BT Sport on your account".
    I have got BT Sport on my account with a watch now button. If I use the button and click through to watch BT Sport I get the message and a link to activate, if I follow the link to actvate I am told that I have already got BT Sport. The people in India do not seem to be able to fix this, can the moderators help ?

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Had another call from Neil today (12/09/14), to say that my BT Sport oder had been resubmited and could I log in and test it.
    Sadly I found no change, I still had exactly the same error :-
    Your BT ID is correct but you don't have BT Sport on your account.
    Have you got BT Broadband? BT Sport is FREE, but you need to activate BT Sport before you can log in to the online player.Activate now.
    Have you ordered BT Sport in the last hour? It could take up to an hour for us to update our records, please bear with us.
    I had to wait about 6 hours to test it as I was out when he called, and MY BT shows BT Sport activated.
    More investigations needed.

  • Can I Watch BT Sport On My BT Youview Box WITHOUT ...

    Hi
    I hope I have a simple question that has a simple answer!
    I have a recently supplied by BT Youview box(Humax I believe). BT line rental and BT Broadband as well. I am in an area that does NOT get Affinity.
    Can I get BT Sport on my Youview box? If so, how do I go about it?
    I used the online chat assistant(32 minute wait) and the person there said I could-but as we got further in to the conversation she said she didn't know how to enable it as she was actaully from the billing department and didn't know how to do it :-( She said she'd pass me on to their techincal people to help me and she'd call me straight away. She did this and asked me to close ALL BT windows on my computer before she could pass me on. I did this. Only to find I had been put in a queue for some Bt helpline :-( After 38 minutes of being told BT were very busy, but that they would get to my call as soon as possible-the call simply disconnected. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, not sure why they treat customers like that but it certainly makes you think twice about migrating to SKY :-(
    Anyway, I've spent ages on the phone and the computer trying to enable BT Sport without success. All I really want to know is: can I have BT Sport on my recently supplied BT Youview box with BT Broadband on a BT line? If I can, how do I do it? If not, will it be available to me any time soon?
    I hope I have given enough info to help answer this simple question but if not PLEASE don't hesitate to ask for more detail.
    Many, many thanks to anyone that can help clear up this frustrating issue for me :-)
    Heraldic

    Thanks for that. The thought of trying to get back through to BT again fills me full of dread :-( I think I'll pass on that and give up hope.
    Thanks again for the help.

    You would really have to speak to BT about that. (sorry).They would have to release you from your current contract and restart you with a BT vision box.
    My fear is that they would charge you for the Youview box you currently have as it only becomes "your" box after you have completed a 1 year contract.

  • Screen freezing when trying to watch BT sports through Apple TV

    I got Apple TV in January 2015, when i try to watch BT Sports through my IPad air the screen freezes.  I have moved the router nearer to the devices but it has not made a difference. Anyone have any solutions i could try?

    I have the same problem...
    Months ago, when the version 2.0 software was released, I upgraded, because I was happy about Apple TV supporting AirTunes. But, the upgrade was a disaster in that the Apple TV became completely unusable.
    Problem 1: Menus would stick forever, whenever displaying "My" content (i.e., my music, my movies), presumably because it was terribly inefficient at building the image slideshow thing to the left
    Problem 2: During playback of a video file (again, in "My" stuff), it would just hang or stop completely at seemingly random times.
    Anyway, I backtracked to version one of the software, because version 1 has always been rock solid for me.
    So, the point is, the software is now on version 2.3, and I downloaded it, and lo and behold, those two problems still exist, which makes the Apple TV again completely useless for the one main thing I use it for...watching stuff from podcast downloads / DVD rips / my music, etc. Was there ever any fix for this?

  • Can't watch NBC sports live extra

    I am watching NBC sports right now. ManU vs Stoke and saw the advertisement about nbc sports live extra and it's ability to let you watch live on ur iPad. I downloaded the app and got his msg:
    To watch videos, you will need to subscribe to FiOS TV with NBCSPORTS
    How is that so when I am watching it on the TV at this moment?

    I found out what to do. Verizon Live Chat's agent told me to uninstall and reinstall the NBC Sports Live Extra app on my iPad. I did that. When I did, I found that it still remembered that Verizon FiOS is my TV provider, so I didn't have to sign back in. And live feeds now work!

  • When are Apple Watches available for pre-order within the UK? Time specific?

    Hey guys,
    I was just wondering if the Apple Watch will be available to pre order from 12am 10th April? Or can I sleep soundly until the morning before I can?
    Also, I put this thread in the iPhone accessories community, as there isn't an Apple Watch one at the moment.

    I have seen the UK servers go live at the time published ,local time not adjusted  in the past
    You may want to check c 12:00 Am if that is the Time Apple are quoting

  • When can I watch Breaking Bad episode 2, "Buried"?

    I purchased the season pass, last week it took three days to download and watch the episode (um, what happened to streaming??) Seriously frustrated and thinking of moving to Amazon streaming.

    Here's what's happened for me: Episodes for Breaking Bad simply don't appear on my Apple TV as they should. That's happeneded two weeks in a row. This week, it got worse, because the download link for the episode pointed to the making-of teaser, not the real episode.
    The episode is finally downloading to my computer, but neither of the first two Final Season episodes shows on my Apple TV. ***?
    Something similar happened to me when I bought the 2nd season of Homeland. The common factor is that I bought both seasons before the episodes started to air.
    The larger issue, however, is the terrible support. Apple seems to have this set up to make it as difficult as possible to get someone ON THE PHONE. Here's a little FYI, when I want to watch TV, especially the latest episode of the hottest show on, I simply expect it to WORK. Right now. Automatically. And, oh  yah, I paid for the whole **** season in advance!
    There's just no excuse for this. Apple has, in my experience, excellent support for their hardware products. However, the "support" they provide for their $7B media store is just really bad.

  • When can I unplug firewire cable after using Migration Assistant

    Just got a new dual core Imac and successfully used Migration Assistant to transfer everything from my old G3 iMac.
    Have got a orange firewire hard drive icon on my desktop - now what do I do?
    I cannot eject this hard drive, so is it safe to just unplug the firewire cable from both macs? How do I restart the old G3 mac as its still in target mode?
    Thanks to anyone that can help!

    Select the icon, CMD+E should remove it from the Desktop, shutdown the G3, and remove the cable.

  • Can't watch video after just installed Adobe Flash Player

    Hi everybody, I recently have a problem with Flash Player. I can't watch videos on Facebook. It keeps telling me to install flash player. But I had Adobe Flash Player in the passed and I used to be able to watch videos. Anyway, I tried to uninstall it and download & install it again, I still can't watch it right after I installed it. I have tried multiple times too. I just can't figure out what the problem is. There is only one thing that I can think of is it might happened after I updated to Yosemite. Could someone help me, PLEASE? Thanks in advance!

    Alright, I solved the problem. Must have been I turned off the Internet Plug-ins one day without realizing it, and I am not good at computer at all, so never thought of that possibility. LOL !

  • Need to know when CAN communication is off while using NI XNET 9862

    Hi,
    I am using NI cDAQ 9178 with one of the modules being NI XNET 9862 for CAN. In my application, I need to know exactly when CAN stopped sending frames/signals after the 'wake up' and 12 volts supply to the module were turned off. On the front panel of the VI, the indicators for CAN data freeze as soon as CAN is off. But when I log all the data acquired to a CSV file with timestamps, there is no way to tell. When the communication if off, the last value acquired for all the signals get 'latched' and that's what is logged in the file. Is there a way to get some sort of flag for this?
    I have attached images of my CAN related VIs to give an idea about the application.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    I don't see any error handing in the Main.VI. Are you performing any error handling that might be able to provide information about communications or update failures?

  • I ordered the full creative cloud on sunday and received an order number but still can't open any of the programs. When i check the status of my order online, it says it can't find it. Is this normal after 3 days?

    I ordered the full creative cloud on sunday and received an order number but still can't open any of the programs. When i check the status of my order online, it says it can't find it. Is this normal after 3 days? I tried asking in a chat window instead of the forum but no one answered and after about ten minutes my screen restarted and closed the chat window down. It seems a little frustrating not knowing what happened to my order and not being able to contact anyone. Is all this usual with Adobe or are they just having technical problems this week?
