SKY STORE RIPOFF!
Had Now TV and a three mobile connection for over 2 years,i have over 100 movies on Sky Store which i have purchased and watched...last week bought 6 movies in the Halloween sale and cant watch them!....live chat told me that as my internet is not "secure" i cant use Sky store app anymore,although it was secure enough to take my money and give nothing in return!,absolutely disgusting service,told its non-refundable either..in my eyes this is theft and i would advise anyone not to part with any money as it looks like they can block your access to Sky store any time they feel like it....

Re: SKY STORE RIPOFF!
Hi @BOOTS1
I may be missing something- but I do quite a lot with Skystore and this isn't something I've heard of before.
Some of us on the forum are able to escalate posts directly to Sky. I'll try to do so with yours as it doesn't seem right to me.
Keep your eyes out on the forum and look out for a speech bubble they may send you at the bottom of the page with an option to open a chat window.
Edit ; I've noticed you are on NOW TV rather than Sky so it may be that they refer you to a different team - but will hopefully offer support

Re: SKY STORE RIPOFF!
Thanks for escalating, but this might be best off with our Sky Store Chat team. they will be able to support far better than our team.

Re: SKY STORE RIPOFF!
When they say "unsecure" @BOOTS1
is that because you are using mobile data ?
When I get home - I'll read through the terms and conditions for Skystore / Now TV and see if I can see anything (sad hobby I know )

Re: SKY STORE RIPOFF!
I've read through the terms best I can @BOOTS1 and it does refer to broadband rather than mobile data.
Is "mobile data" the reason they gave you for refusing ?
if so - and if you remain unhappy you have the option to complain to Sky or to a regulator - but you might need to locate a flaw in the terms and conditions first.

Re: SKY STORE RIPOFF!
My internet is provided by three mobile broadband as it has been for the last 2 and a half years,it's a sim in a router,best way i can describe it,suits me as i dont want a landline or the costs of it..anyway...have been buying and watching my Sky Store movies all this time with no problem,so for them to suddenly say "its because its an unsecure connection" is a poor excuse and as i said previously it wasn't "unsecure" enough for them not to take over £50 from me over halloween to buy more films,which i can't watch!...to take more money and let me buy more films when they know its an "unsecure" connection and i wont be able to access them strikes me as theft!

Re: SKY STORE RIPOFF!
You could go down this route @BOOTS1
I am usually a supporter of Sky but I must say that in my opinion - this doesn't sound right

Re: SKY STORE RIPOFF!
Hi again @BOOTS1
When you try to view a movie - do you get an error message ?
what is preventing you viewing the purchased movies ?
Also - is your account a "Skystore" account that you log in to using the Skystore app ?

If you haven't had Sky for years then that ID would have been closed which might explain the error.
One thing that isn't clear for me, you mentioned NowTV in your opening post were you a customer of theirs when you ordered these films from the Sky Store ?

Re: SKY STORE RIPOFF!
So what happens if you sign in with your NowTV account details and not the Sky ID ?
