lol mate may be worth it in the long run if you have both apps your saving yourself £30 a month you can pick a TV that has the pairing bit for around £200 I bet. good luck sorry I couldn't be more helpful but I did mine by trail and error

If you've got a Windows 10 laptop, then the BT Sports mobile app works on there and can be connected to the TV by hdmi lead - I pay £5 a month via EE. Same with Sky Sports, although this is because I subscribe to the TV packages and get Sky Go, it may be different with the Sky Mobile app.

There are some types of hdmi leads and adapters that connect mobile phones to the telly (search for MHL or SlimPort) but some devices/TVs work, some don't. I bought a new TV recently and while I can cast my phone to it, if trying to do it when using the BT Sport app, it fails, because they can block it.

Thanks for that reply, appreciated. I have been able to connect up the laptop to the tv via an HDMI cable in the past, so I suppose that is still an option, but connecting the iPhone direct to the tv with a cable is something I haven’t looked into - didn’t think it was possible, but will look for the cables you’ve suggested

I cast BT sport from an ipad to a Sony smart tv with no problems so it may be the equipment rather than BT.
