Activating Netflix

I have just upgraded from Sky Plus to Sky Q and purchased Netflix through Sky for the first time. My new subscription has started but don't get my new Sky Q box until the new year. Can I watch Netflix immediately without the box and if so how?

Re: Activating Netflix

I haven't been able to set the Netflix account up though. Should I not have got an activation email first?

You just have replied @AHast 

That's what the forum is for!

However best to tag whoever you are replying to so that get a notification.

Tag someone in your post by typing @ followed by their username.

Not sure, my netflix account is separate from Sky.

 

Worth a try resetting it using the same email as your Sky ID. I think that's what they use when they set up the linked netflix account.

Re: Activating Netflix

I've tried but Netflix doesn't recognise the email address of my sky id. I suspect I need the activation email but just don't know how to get it

@AHast you don't reply direct to the Sky employee direct there should be a chat bubble thats red/blue somewhere on your screen to activate the chat function and be aware its not real time chat so there may not be an instant reply
