BT Sport

My parents recently switched to BT infinity and as a result got BT sports included.

Both my brother and I are keen rugby followers so would like to use my parents details in order to watch online or via the app (we live away from my parents). My parents are okay with this as they would only ever watch through their TV.

Looking on BT's website there appears to be no limit to the number of devices you can use, only that you can only watch 2 streams at the same time. Is there any reason we can't use their details to watch online? Don't want to break any T+C's and end up getting my parents cut off!

    When our son was at Uni he used to watch Sky via the web with our id. He was part of the household away from home, so specially as it was doubtful we would want to watch at the same time it should not be an issue. DG

    It's fine, as long as they are happy with giving you their BT username and password you can legally access the streams from anywhere
