Re: Unable to rent movies on my TV with Sky Credit purchased via Nectar Card
I'm afraid you can only watch a rented film on the device it was rented on so in your case it will be your iphone as it isn't possible to send any rented film to a Sky box. You can only send Buy and Keep films to a Sky box from another device.

Hi @Mar1234
With that type of credit - you can only rent and view online / on a device. You can't send a rental to your Sky box.
if you have an LG TV with built in Skystore- you can view on your TV or with rentals (apart from Premiere rentals) you should be able to use a Chromecast if you have one - or use a PC or laptop with an HDMI output
If you use credit for a buy and keep movie - you CAN send that to your Sky box

What other devices do you have, apart from your Sky box ?

You should be able to view on - say - a phone / a tablet / a laptop / and a PC - just not a Sky box
