Francis Albert Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 Why is the process for accessing this more complicated this season. Just got an email with lengthy instructions and a special code.

Jibbers Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 I was able to access this by typing in my details in the same format as last season, without the special code referred to, just name and customer reference number. Whether this works for the game on Saturday is another matter though it does say on the Hearts website that if you are already registered you don't need to go through this process.

Lone Striker Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 So if you log in to Hearts TV on Saturday using your "new" username & password, will the match link just magically be there ? Or do they send you another email on the day with a link on it ? (Sorry - I've never used Hearts TV as such before). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway it seems odd that we are urged to register as soon as possible on the Thursday night when the first game is less than two days away. And if as has been suggested the registration gives us full access to Hearts TV I can presumably cancel my Hearts TV subscription and the club will lose money compared to last year's simpler process? And if so why has this not been advertised as a benefit of renewing or buying your ST this season?

You don't need to do the register part as you can skip that by just going to the sign in page like we did last season for streaming and enter your ref number as the password. Then select your name from the menu, account settings, then redeem season ticket code and you can enter as per the email My code worked although some posters seem to getting a fault at that stage.

I suspect the Sunderland stream is being used as a bit of trial run for IT purposes like we did with a friendly last season - I think Partick from memory. Trying to get all the registration issues out of the way for a meaningless game rather than chaos for a Celtic game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be wrong but this may have something to do with the Premiership matches being shown via Sky whereas last season it was the club's own streaming service.

You already use hearts tv so I can’t see how this would confuse you. Looks to me like until we get all season ticket holders back into the stadium it gives season ticket holders to live games hearts tv will already be screening. Hence the reason for the unique code, we will lose access once we can fully use our season tickets. Seems pretty straightforward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is redeeming a season ticket code (or in my case trying to and failing to) necessary when all I needed last season was my name and customer reference number to sign in for each game? There may be a good reason. Maybe it makes it more secure. But I can't see how anyone can deny it is more complicated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jambosean75 Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 Hi S, The season ticket is a separate account from your subscription so you will have to register a new account for your season ticket details. Kind Regards Support this is the answer from the support line which seems to contradict the line from the page that says Note; if you already have an active Hearts TV account then you do not need to register, just click on SIGN IN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably daft questions but never been on Hearts TV before. Last year I just used the Hearts Pass icon. I've just got registered and once on the page where you can select to watch goals, highlights etc scroll down and the match icon for tomorrow is at the bottom. Presumably they will put a specific icon up for every home game. I'm sorted now but it does seem like a much longer winded way of doing things than last season.
