No TNT Sports Box Office

[Paul1883]

TNT Sports Box Office has disappeared from my sports channel menu.

[SKY1992bf · Accepted solution]

@Paul1883 the likely reason is because the fury v usyk fight is exclusive to sky sports box office on Sky platforms

How can a shy customer book the fury v uysk fight on tnt sports box office channel 490? The channel isn't currently listed on my sky box even though all other tnt sports channels and box office 2 are showing

@Marcus1978 you need Sky Sports Box Office Channel 491 Channel 492

Thank you. But I would like to watch the fight on tnt sports box office not sky sports box office. Any idea why sky has removed Channel 490 which is tnt sports box office 1

I believe that the only way to watch on BT Sports Box Office is you would need to purchase through discovery plus app or amazon prime app as i believe it is only available on Sky Sports Box Office on sky platforms. Obviously via the app you cant record the event but i assume it will have replays. Channel 490 i believe skly have removed until after the Fury v Usyk fight then i assume it will be back again.

Is this definitely the case then? Channel 490 doesn't doesn't exist. The strange this is 494 tnt box office 2 exists.

@MarcusBarnes112 It still exists but has temporarily been removed because sky holds exclusively to the current fury v usyk fight on there platforms

I am really confused by this because if you click on the link below and scroll right down to the bottom, one of the frequently asked questons is "How do I buy a TNT Sports Box Office event to view on Sky"

https://www.tntsports.co.uk/boxoffice

Do you know when channel 494 was removed as I am pretty sure it hasn't existed for a while and not just recently.

@MarcusBarnes112  it all depends how the event rights were sold in this case sky secured exclusive rights to show the fight on sky platforms meaning tnt can't show it via sky

 
if an event happens to become available again on channel 494 the channel will reappear tnt doesn't carry the channel year round on sky to save costs 

the key is to look at the available options under where will you watch the fight (the fact sky isn't listed means that it isn't available via TNT on Sky)

the faq is generic and not specific to each event

Same thing happened to me on Saturday night for boxing. Checked the guide and you can't buy it through sky on TNT. It's not that much of an issue as you can just buy it on SKY box office but feels a little sneeky. I like to use the dish rather than internet for things like this just incase.
