Can I access BT Sport on now TV? To watch champions League matches.

Hi @Anonymous User

Unfortunately at the moment there is no BT Sport on the NowTV service .

There is a cross supply agreement between BT & NowTV where the BT Sport App is maybe coming to the NowTV boxes & stick.

Where this information is still a little sketchy at the moment and no official date has been confirmed apart from it's apparently going to happen sometime during 2019.

No-one knows exactly how it will work. There has been speculation it may be bundled in a full sports sub but nothing has emerged as to costing for such a packaged bundle of BT & Sky sports channels.

Hopefully coming to now tv very soon. Sky have just started to sell bt sport to their subscribers. You have to ring them up at the moment to add it. They start selling it officially next week.

Spot on sir.

Looks like it is being confirmed that BT sport is now purchasable directly from Sky via phone (not online yet).

https://forums.digitalspy.com/discussion/2366441/bt-sport-now-available-to-order-on-sky

Which now begs the real question, when will BT sport be released on Roku devices including Now TV sticks/boxes. Is that getting released next week??

What BT sport channels are going be added when BT sport launches on now TVs boxes and sticks and how much is going to be to view.

Enapace · ‎12-01-2020

NowTV have took so long sort this that now i've added it through my EE Contract which is a shame but now i know at least i can watch now and for a very good price.

No doubt it will look something like this.

If the Ireland Now TV sports passes are anything to go by, it looks like BT sport will be a pass and view-able via Now TV itself rather than have another app to download and log into.

I am hoping the BT Sport channels appear on now tv boxes and sticks in time for the champions league round of 16 ties start.

Posted this a few days ago, seems to be another "confirmed" date assumed by BT.

With BT selling BT Sport for £25/month that you can get on various devices including Chromecast, I don't expect a Now TV app. They don't even have it on a Fire stick and that has a BT app.

gavs82008 · ‎13-02-2020

@starman73

If its anything like Ireland Now TV, then I would assume there will be a BT sport pass for £25 a month.

That is pure speculation though

starman73 · ‎13-02-2020

@gavs82008 There is a £25 BT Sport pass, just no app on Now TV sticks/boses. Nor Fire TV sticks/boxes. Anyway I do have a chromecast, so I can just use that when I leave Virgin in August.

gavs82008 · ‎14-02-2020

@starman73

From what I have seen with Now TV Ireland the BT sport pass is directly via Now TV billing.

Although I do understand that BT are in the progress of testing Roku devices for BT sport.

No one knows. You have to wait for it to happen.

UKTVPlayapp · ‎20-06-2019

Any news when by sport will be added on now tv boxes and sticks.

UKTVPlayapp · ‎20-06-2019

I was meaning BT Sport.

Anonymous User · ‎20-06-2019

How long is a piece of string? We're not even sure if it has reached the testing stage yet. The latest I heard from a friend in one of Sky's Call Centres was that they had been told there was a delay on the proposed start date. I should add I can't vouch for the validity of that info.

UKTVPlayapp · ‎23-06-2019

What was the proposed start date for bt sport channels to appear on now tv.

Anonymous User · ‎23-06-2019

No one outside of the decision makers at BT/Sky know the answer to that question. What I was told was that CS reps were to have been given a date for when the service was to start but that was withheld once it was realised the date wasn't going to be achievable.

A friend who is a Sky CS rep has told me a manager had told him it won't be any earlier than the last week of July and could be later. Again, I can't vouch for the validity of my friend's claim.
