Sky Sports App returns an "unexpected error" when trying to log in

Hi

I run a Windows 10 PC and when I try to log into the Sky Sports app via the Virgin Media log in I simply get an "unexpected error" banner

Can you help please

  • Hi Wackyracer500 👋

    Welcome to our Community Forums and thanks for your post. 

    I am sorry to hear you're getting this error. 

    Have you tried an alternative browser or cleared cookies/cache?

    Hi Zach

    New  computer and did have an issue with blocked mail but all resolved with the support team

    No issue in logging in to my VM account currently

    Will look at the FAQ's as per your link but have browsed them before posting and nothing really to help me

    Any help would be appreciated

      Thanks for coming back to us Wackyracer500,

      You don't have a VPN that could be blocking your access at all do you? 

      Kind regards Jodi.

        Hi Judy

        No I do not use a VPN

    Hi Matt

    The error returned both on VM user account log in and Sky Sports VM UK log in using my old details

    "Your email or password was incorrect.  Please try again or go back to change your email"

    I get exactly the same response when using my current details on the Sky Sports VM UK log in

    My current details allow me to access my VM account

    Lastly no, I will not have gone over the device limit

    I should really appreciate suggestions as to how to resolve this issue

    Many thanks

      Hi Wackyracer500,

      Are you able to watch any other content via Virgin TV Go using the same login details?

      Thanks,

        Hi Zach

        No I cannot log in to VM TV Go at all- I can log in to the Sky Sports app using the VM UK tab on my Ipad but cannot log in to the Sky Sports app on my PC

        Regards
