The ManU v Burnley game is on BEIN pop up 3 on Sky live. Channel 270.

While i have enjoyed watching games on the Bein channels using Sky box. Games shown on Sky go live have been awful and I do feel cheated this season after 3 seasons of PLP. Looking back PLP took ages to up their game in quality of streaming but BEIN are huge in tv sports, this is a poor service.

Thanks for that!

I didn't spot it on the Sky planner when I checked this morning, perhaps they have updated it.

I haven't watched on SkyGo yet, so I can't comment about the quality of the streaming.

The communication from BeIN has been really poor, considering they now see themselves as a 'big player' in the market.

Just watching the STK vs WHU game live... stream looks about as good as the 3000kbps steam from PremierLeaguePass.

Hopefully in time it'll get better.. as right now there are still other free options which are better.

Still no on demand/catch up or Bein Sports channel 2 added. I can't believe these people want to charge people for this limited crap service. I predict that hardly anyone has signed up for their service. They are really shooting themselves in the foot. I am not giving them my money until the full service is available.

I'm heading to Auckland Airport on December 12th very early in the morning for my flight to Thailand.....was really hoping to catch the Spurs vs Man Utd game @ 3:15AM kick off on beIN Sports 1......is there anywhere open at the hour of the morning that will likely be showing the game? Really hoping to watch it on a big screen in HD..! If not - is the internet connection at the airport suitable for streaming the game live on my laptop?

Cheers appreciate any tips! :)

Edit: Apparently 'Mac's Down Under Bar' 1st floor of the international terminal opening hours are 4:30AM-11PM so unfortunately that's not an option.....preferably somewhere once you've cleared customs! :)

Still no access to BeIN connect for Sky subscribers....unless anyone knows different?

BeIN's customer service is awful to deal with, too. A lot of unhappy customers on their Facebook page after an unexpected change of broadcast schedule and it took a long time to get an answer out of them......

Just bumping my previous comment....anyone know if/when BeIN connect might be available to those who subscribe to BeIN via Sky?

Update: here's something from the Stuff website. Very unusual for me to agree with a Liverpool fan, but glad someone has taken this further!

Fair play to him but he should also complain to the epl for selling the rights to people who are not going to deliver them to the people that want them. Fook them. Vote with your feet and avoid it, easier said than done. I am at a stage of my life where it is.

Manchester United have launched a mobile app for MUTV, NZ$8.49 a month, 24/7 tv channel, obviously first team games aren't live, but they are available on demand, have to endure Stewart and paddy though. Can airplay and cast too.

You can now log on to the bein connect iOS app and website using your sky account details. Android app support in the coming days.
It still only has the 2 streams of their channels by the looks of it? No on demand apart from being able to scroll back 2 hours on the stream.

How many of you have BeIN sports for the EPL and will drop it after 22 May and not get back until August? Or not get back at all?

Dropped it months ago and won't be going back, poor customer service, bunch of con-artists they are. I miss Premier League Pass it was so much better and was happy to pay for a service like that. Plenty of free HD streams for football on the internet these days which provide better service than the paid stuff.

I'll drop it at the end of the season and get it back for the new one. I love the simplicity of the feed in to the TV either live or on playback. PLP was poor compared to this, and always suffered framerate issues on fast panning; I'm glad that I don't have to deal with PLP anymore!

Not the Premier League i know, but good news for me and a fair few other expats from next season:

Football League boss Shaun Harvey confirms the following plans:
- The 148 matches broadcast on television in England will be sold abroad as before.This means that these matches will only be possible to review through the channel that purchases the TV package in Norway.This season it is known Discovery that has these rights.
- The around 1,500 remaining matches will be possible to flow through a new service called "iFollow".This applies only to us who do not live in the UK.

Dropping it at the end of the season. Will think about it when the new season is about to start. But so far, been happy with the service. The simplicity and tv quality has been good to deal with.
