You Need a Sky Sports Subscription on skysports.com via Sky Stream

I have a sky sports subscription via Sky Stream but the skysports.com website always tells me I dont. My subscription works on the Sky Go app, the Stream boxes just not on skyspors.com when logging in. 

 

Is this just that the website cant understand Sky Stream subscriptions?

@MikeyT 

To get you some help with this I have escalated your post to the Sky Messaging team who will be in touch with you regarding this via a blue/red chat bubble which will appear at the bottom of this page. It can take up to a few hours to be contacted via this.


This link explains how this works:

When the chat bubble does appear you have 48 hours to respond or it will be automatically closed. This isn't a live chat so replies are not instant.

It isn't a live chat so have you reponded to the question asked as there is a small box to type into it under what has been asked.

I'mnot sure how the contact works but if you send a message there then they should respond to it in time.

To clarify: you have Sky Stream where Sky Sports works, and it works on Sky Go, but not via skysports.com?

Yes, that is correct. 

 

When I go on the Sky Sports website and login with the same account in the 'Channels' area, under any live steam it says 'You need to be a Sky Sports or Sky HD subscriber to view this content'.

Ok, it's something that will need to be reported to Sky, to be fixed. If you wish, we can ask Sky's messaging team to contact you here so that you can do that.

That would be great if you could, thank you! I can't seem to contact them any other way.

@Laurenskyf1 it looks like a fault that's affecting a number of customers at the moment, so it may be something they're aware of but I'll flag your post to Sky anyway. Look out for a blue/red chat 'bubble' towards the bottom of the page later today. Replies from Sky may not be instant, so check back from time to time for updates.
