can't watch sky tv abroad evenwhen paying every month

Hi 

I am a good sky customer as I have sky broadband, tv, sky go, mobile phone and pay  every month for 12  months per year, but, we love to go on holiday often and can't  watch sky tv outside the country which means  even though we pay for a full year we only get about 10 months  of service. 

This doesn't  feel fair

Is there any way around it?

You need to direct your complaint to Brexit as this is the reason why you can't use Sky Go outside the UK

 

There is no way to circumvent this, any discussions to the contrary would be a breach of forum rules.

@Mike+19  Blame brexit

 

the uk exit agreement prohibits uk residents from accessing sky in an eu member state under any circumstances,  unless you are an Ireland resident

Yes it's a shame. We were promised 'freedom' but all i'm seeing is restrictions and things taken away.

 

Irish customers are not affected and can still watch Sky Go in any EU country.
