Apple TV Add on Android Device

Hi,

I got the Apple TV add on in my last contract change but I can't for the life of me get it to actually work! I am on android but the lady said that it should still work... I got the text with the link, but it said "This Phone number could not be verified for this subscription". I tried turning off my wifi and doing it over a mobile network. Called EE and they said that it's Apple issue, called Apple and they said it's EE issue! Going round in circles now and getting pretty frustrated.

That was a few weeks ago, I got a months worth of Apple TV in the mean time which is not great considering it was meant to be a free add on. I tried it today after signing in like 400 times and finally got a new error message "This Phone number is not eligible for this promotion. Contact EE for help."

The only time I get to sort out these kinds of issues is past the time EE has closed there call centers so I kinda out of luck right now...

@Philip93  Do you have an Apple account?  You need one, do you have the Apple TV app on your device? You need it.   

To contact EE Customer Services dial 150 From your EE mobile or 0800 956 6000 from any other phone.

Good morning @Philip93 

Thanks for reaching out here on the community. 

What plan are you currently on? Just to add to what Chris  B has mentioned, these steps show you how to Get Apple TV set up. 

Thanks

I have an apple account and I have the app.

I have the All Rounder iPhone SIM plan, the sales lady said it was fine to use it for an android device.

I am using the same url from the text, wifi off, using 5g and i still get the same  "This phone number is not eligible for this promotion. Contact EE for help.". I see Apple TV in my Inclusive Extras so i really don't get it!

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly @Philip93 

I appreciate that you have tried all of the above steps, I would recommend Contacting Us to speak with one of our tech guides. 

They will be able to help you out with the set-up.

The last time I tried they told me to speak to Apple support who then told me to speak to EE support... 

I will try again and IF they manage to fix it I will report back.
