BT Sport Question

Hi,

My dad has BT Sport but only has freeview. So he watches it on his tablet and that is it. He comes to my house quite often, which is a good 2 hours away, and I have sky.

I was wondering if it is against the terms and conditions if I register my dads BT Sport account on my sky TV so he can watch it when he is here?

Appreciate any advice.

Darren

    Yes it is. They presumably cross-check the addresses or phone number, and it won't match.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    It's unlikely you'd be able to do this without being caught out.

    I can confirm you definitely can't do this and macman is correct.

    The address on Sky's system needs to exactly match the address on BT's system. And if they don't pair up, the system won't process it.
