By having a subscription to the relevant sports channels. The broadcast rights are currently split between TNT and Sky but Sky have the most amount of live games.

Thank you for your guidance. I want to be able to have both Sky Sports and TNT Sports channels altogether. Is there any option?

one of my friends told me about BCE Premium TV. Did you use their service?

@StaceyMC Are you uk or Ireland based?

the company you mentioned doesn't hold broadcast rights?

you need to subscribe directly with sky/tnt/amazon separately

@SKY1992bf UK,

My friend was told this is a legal option but I don't know.

Thanks for your advice.

Certainly does not sound legal

@StaceyMC If it's the same person who posted about it on the community a few days ago their post was removed as that provider is not a legal pay tv provider within the UK & Ireland.

Everything on Google suggests that BCE is a streaming service selling access to copyrighted content and is certainly not legal.

@GD1 Thanks for your response

@Nigelb1972 I was checking on Google now and it shows that BCE is a legit company in the UK.

The company is probably legal but what they're doing may not be. Unless they're an authorised reseller of Sky Sports and TNT Sports, they're not legal

@StaceyMC BCE appears to be legitimate streaming platform but in America. To access their platform in another country you'd need a VPN. So technically it's legal but you could be in breach of their terms and conditions and find yourself kicked off with no warning.

Technically because you're accessing unauthorised content via a VPN, you could also face access from your ISP for breach of their terms and conditions.

The only legal ways to access the Premier League in the UK is via a subscription to Sky Sports and TNT Sports through officially licensed channels.

@Nigelb1972 Aha yes, If they are a legit streaming service so it seems they're an authorised reseller of Sky Sports and TNT Sports.

Anyway, thanks for your advice.

Please be mindful of the community rules which prohibits discussion of unauthorised access to streams of content that sky legally holds the rights to

the third party is not an authorised reseller within the uk and Ireland

@SKY1992bf Aha, Thanks for your guidance.

@StaceyMC they're not a legitimate streamer in the UK. It's an American platform and is therefore technically illegal in this country as they don't hold broadcasting rights for the UK. The only way to legally access Premier League games in the UK via a direct subscription to either TNT Sports or Sky Sports plus the odd game on Prime around Christmas if they still have their rights package. Any other method of accessing the Premier League is illegal under copywriting law.

Face facts, if you want to legally access Premier League you need the relevant subscription. Another method is illegal and leaves you open to criminal proceedings and your broadband contract at risk of being cancelled for a breach of the terms and conditions of your contract.

Your activity online can be tracked, monitored and logged regardless of whether you are using a VPN or not.
