Anywhere Virgin - Error Trying to Watch Via SkySports

Hi,

(Perhaps subject title isn't very clear )

Raised new thread as couldnt see my issue raised anywhere else.

Attempted to watch the football on SkySports last night on my PC (registered device for Anywhere Virgin Anywhere), having signed it to SkySports and set up a SKY PIN, but I get an error, and still get the error this morning when attempted to view SkySports on the PC.

Silverlight is enabled, the error i am seeing is

Apologies, this item has been interupted due to an error. Please click play to resume watching. [:t:6038 / c:4110]

Any clues about this error ? Any one else have that issue ?

regards

TrevP

You use your virgin account login details. You should see a virgin logo saying sign in via virgin

We might be getting confused here.
Bring up the sky sports web page on your browser.
www.skysports.com
Click sign in.
You will then see at the bottom of the page the virgin media logo.
Click on that and sign in using your virgin media login details.

NOPE.

And yes I have used the login via the Virgin logo..am using the correct virgin login...(which I used to get my Sky PIN).

Tried both FF and IE.

Before it gives me that error code, Im sure i see a message flashed briefly suggesting it searching for device licence...

You shouldn't be asked for a sky pin. Your virgin details should get you in, just did it and watching now no problem
