How do I switch my BT Sports access from my main Sky Box to one of the Q Boxes?

i currently subscribe to BT Sports via Sky but only can access the BT channels in the room where the main SKY Box is. I have 2 other rooms with Sky Q mini boxes and want to move the BT access to one of these rooms

You can't move them as far as I know, you would need to upgrade your subs with BT for multi room. If you pay through Sky then BT sports would already be on the minis.

thanks for that. seems a bit odd though that one cannot choose which room to have the BT Sports access in

@belle77 @You say you subscribe to BT sports via Sky.

if by this you mean you pay for it to sky (who then pass it on) you should be able to watch it on your mini boxes.

if however you pay BT directly then you have to pay them extra to watch it on additional mini boxes.

I dont know know but suspect it isn't possible to just swap it to a mini box as it works through the viewing card being enabled (this is in main skyQ box only)

if if you do pay BT directly you will need to contact BT as it is not a sky problem

i pay Sky not BT, but am pretty sure that i only get one room access for that. i just would like to be able to choose which room that is!

Hi @belle77 If you pay Sky for BT Sport on Sky and have a Multiscreen subscription (required to watch on Minis) then watching BT Sport on all boxes in already included. If you cannot view on Minis you need to contact Sky because something is wrong with your account.
