Hi,

Apologies if you have already tried these.  Have you cleared the cache on your browser?  Have you tried alternative browsers (chrome, Firefox etc)?  Are you by chance running a VPN?

Just a thought.

Kind Regards,

Bill

- the newest Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox on your Mac, Windows 7, 8.1 or 10 device
- Microsoft Edge on your Windows 7, 8.1 or 10.

Can you please also ensure that you have set to Always Allow cookies, you can do this by following these instructions for Safari, Google Chrome, Firefox or Microsoft Edge.

Thanks for coming back to us paul243, I'm sorry that this issue is still going on. Do you have any other devices that you could try to access the Sky Sports app on?

Is this "an unknown error has occurred "  the full error message, are you able to share a screenshot?

Kind Regards,
