Can’t activate sky stream puck
I recieved my sky stream puck 2 days ago and activated it okay using the email address I thought was registered to my account. All was working completely fine.
my broadband was activated today and when I switched it over it wouldn't work. I contacted cs on the phone and after 2 hours with 8 resets and linking my sky id to my preferred email address. It still isn't working.
They said this will be escalated and to wait.
from what I can figure out because I linked the puck to the old account (which did have a puck linked to it but was sent back as found cheaper deal, sky wouldn't match it so made us send everything back) it won't let me activate it.
when I do a factory reset along with holding the button on the bottom and following the steps, every time I get it the activation/link account screen and I follow the instructions. It's comes up with a message saying this page is restricted.
on the account I cannot see an order for a puck even thought I have been sent one but I cannot see that sky streaming has been activated and I can use this on my phone via sky go
i feel like I have exhausted every avenue possible but have no real answers or ideas on how to solve this.
sky also will only send me a replacement puck if I pay a 50e fee for it, which is madness!

Re: Can’t activate sky stream puck
Try the following
- Go to sky.com/signin.
- Enter the email address you used when you ordered Sky Glass or Sky Stream.
- Enter your password. Or create a new password if this is your first time signing in.
- If you’re asked to “Link your Sky accounts”, enter your:
- Postcode/Eircode – the one you gave when you ordered; and
- Payment method details – the one you use to pay for your Streaming TV bill.
You should now see your Streaming TV account
5. Go to sky.com/activate.
6. Enter the 6-digit code that's showing on your TV.
Sky Stream with two pucks (former Sky Q and Sky+ customer).
Sky Ultrafast + using Sky SR203 hub. Sky Mobile unlimited data. Sky Protect smart tech kit tester.

Re: Can’t activate sky stream puck
I managed to link the original email used to order with the sky stream and broadband account number. Still no joy. When I put the activation code in, logged into the correct email. The screen doesn't change.
at the stage I am going to give up and ask sky for a replacement puck tomorrow. There doesn't seem to be any other way than a new one that is directly linked to my account
thank you for all of the above suggestions
