Sky Go not working on PS4

When I try to use the Sky Go App on my Playstation 4, I get the message saying 'To Watch this Programme You Will Need to Purchase The Sky Go Extra Package'. I have the correct package, as the same programme works on a different device. I've seen other people raise the exact same issue when moving to Sky Glass, I think the 'Extra Package' drops off on the PS4 for some reason.

When moving to Sky Glass Sky Go Extra does remain on your package but you need the Sky Glass Whole Home package to be able to use Sky Go Extra so if you haven't got this then this is why you are seeing the message to add it.

Re: Sky Go not working on PS4

Hello,  I am also having the same issue. 

 

I am a SKY VIP diamond customer and Sky go extra used to be part of the benefits however I cannot access Sky Go on my Playstation 4 anymore and it comes up with 'You will need to purchase the Sky Go Extra Package'. 

 

Is there a way to resolve this?

 

I have tried to call the helpline however this proved unsuccessful

@Draper1234 

Have you made any changes to your TV package recently perhaps removing multiscreen or upgrading to Sky Glass or Stream ?

@caesarome Thank you for getting back to me. Yeah my mum made some changes to the package, we are now on Sky Signature, ultimate TV add on and Sky cinema. 

 

How would I go about getting the Skygo extra re-added?

Did you cancel multiroom when these changes were made, if so that would explain why Sky Go Extra is not worth by as you get it free via it.

@caesarome We've never had Sky Multiroom, I've always had Skygo extra free due to being a Diamond VIP member
