Sky Go Vodafone

Funny how things go, a broadband price hike from Vodafone inspires me to look for a bundle deal from sky and I end up staying with Vodafone and have just cancelled my sky tv package instead. Can Vodafone TV customers use the Sky Go app? The Sky Go app can be downloaded by anyone in NZ, but it won't work with a Vodafone TV account as this is not a Sky product. Vodafone TV offers its own companion app for Vodafone TV customers. Was this answer helpful?

I'm an existing My Sky HDi subscriber who also has a Telstraclear (Vodafone) cable connection. Thinking of moving to one of the new Vodafone UFB (over cable) + Vodafone TV bundles/deals. I'd be interested in the experiences of folk who've already made a similar switch. Simply head to sky.co.nz and register for My Account. Once you have registered and linked your Sky account, you'll then gain access to a host of world-class Sports, TV Shows, and Movies On Demand, as well as the ability to take Sky with you wherever you go!
