mightysaints Posted 16 September, 2014 Share Posted 16 September, 2014 I have ditched Virgin Media for sky, fed up with the internet speed not even getting to 50 meg when on the 150meg service and having to constantly turn the router on and off. How long does it take BT to be available on the sky box. The BT online sports channels were up and running straight away but nothing on the Sky box after 24 hrs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batman Posted 16 September, 2014 Share Posted 16 September, 2014 I get BT sport free on Sky (and online) as I have BT infinity BroadBand. All I had to do was register my viewing card number on the BT website (my account area) and it was done pretty quickly not sure outside of that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mightysaints Posted 16 September, 2014 Author Share Posted 16 September, 2014 I did call BT yesterday to say it wasn't working on Sky, will have a look when I get home from work tonight and see it its working. Got a good deal on Infinity 2 from them plus, cheaper than Virgin plus the advantage of getting more footy, Moto GP etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjii Posted 16 September, 2014 Share Posted 16 September, 2014 Just hope you never have a serious problem with BT because their customer service is diabolical. I've always found Sky pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colinjb Posted 16 September, 2014 Share Posted 16 September, 2014 If you are using Sky broadband and not BT's then you will not be eligible for free BT Sport. I am guessing that you may need to contact BT to update them that you have switched from Virgin to Sky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Channon's Windmill Posted 18 September, 2014 Share Posted 18 September, 2014 I've just gone the other way... Ditching Sky for Virgin. Was fed up with getting 1MB download speeds most evenings and a Sky+hd box that was knackered (8 years old). They wouldnt give me a new one so Tivo here I come!

Three TiVo boxes and fewer domestic arguments. Now I just need to get the Sky Sports and Sky Movies apps working... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
