Sky website doesn't let my activate my discovery+ account

[Ellie20002]

I'm trying to activate discovery+ on my SkyQ and I keep coming back to the same issue. The app is already on my tv and states that it's £0 a month (as per my sky subscription). When I get to the screen that asks me to scan the QR code to sign into my sky account, I do that, but then the sky website it links to comes up with an error message. "We can't do that at the moment. We hope to have everything back to normal soon. Please try again later."

It's been saying that same error message for the past week 😞 

any help would be really appreciated!
