I have rented 2 movies. I have e mail confirmation that they are available to watch but they are not showing on my account. Anyone else had an issue with this?

Could you clarify- which device did you arrange the rentals on and which device are you trying to watch on ?
rules for rentals are different to those for purchases (buy and keep )
Also, how long ago did you arrange the rentals ?

I rented them around 3 hours ago using my phone. I used a cadburys voucher to pay for them. They are not showing up on my account on sky go or on the tv. I have e mails confirming I have rented them

How did you rent them via your phone, did you do it via the Sky Store app ?

I rented them in skystore.com using a cadburys voucher I had

Sky go won't allow you to view rented (or any other Skystore ) movies. You could view them on the Skystore app or on Skystore.com.
if you have an LG TV on Webos 3 or later you could view on there (through the Skystore app) or most (but not the premiere ) rented movies can be sent from a device to your PC through a Chromecast if you have one
annoyingly if you rent on Skystore.com you can't view them on your Sky Q box

If you have a look at my above post (post number 6) I think this may explain what you are experiencing. Not ideal I know but that's how Skystore rentals work

Is it worth me contacting sky as they're not viewed and can't be on my chrome book? I wasn't sure how to use the voucher via my tv?

Redeeming a voucher if you then want to watch on a TV can be annoyingly difficult if you don't happen to have the right technology.
It's certainly worth a try to see if Skystore will come up with anything as a goodwill gesture.
Their livechat will be open now and until 7.30pm
Here is a link - hope you get somewhere with them
