[yiu007008]

I have a friend is using execulink internet. However, he wants to keep the internet (due to the email) and use Bell Fibe Tv. Is it possile? (He does not want Bell satellite Tv.) Please give me some suggestion. Thank you.

He would have to have a separate account and fibre optic line, I believe, at the least. Kind of like having Bell and a cable provider.

I have a cell phone with bell mobility, that I pay for data.  But I  only want the bell tv app!

is this possible  ???

or am I forced  to buy  home Internet bell  ,   which I don’t need . Because I use my cell Data  for everything and internet .

i just wanted a tv app

[AlexS]

You have to bundle. It's technically an IPTV service but with cable-like business model, not a streaming model.

[Jara]

So a bundle costs ? A lot  ??    I  just subscribed to bell mobility with my cell phone for  85 / month   And I don't need  another subscription   internet

  I have internet on my cell   But I just wanted that bell tv app    ,so I can watch on my laptop before bed .

since im not home to often ,  until night .

so there is no way around  

Getting the bell tv app , on my cell.  ??  Without paying for bloat ware services?

So i would have  to subscribe to my cell subscription , home internet fiber  and fibe tv?  

I would rather have one bill from bell mobility  with one , add on  Bell fibe tv app .   I guess  that is too complicated for bell services??

Good Day.

If you wish to view Fibe TV with the App on your mobile device, you will need to subscribe to a Fibe TV app & Internet package.

Thank you for once again contacting the Bell Community Forum & posting your question.

Take care.

Good Day.

If you have a Bell TV account, you can watch Bell TV on the internet. You will need to be able to log in to your MyBell account with a web browser. This is the Fibe TV web link: Home - Fibe TV (bell.ca)

Requirements

• Fibe TV service with a PVR, Satellite TV service or Fibe TV app service
• Internet speed of 15 Mbps or higher is recommended (15 Mbps for the Fibe TV app subscribers)
• For Apple TV, AirPlay-enabled devices, Android TV, Amazon Fire TV and ChromecastTM, the available content varies depending on your location.

Once the app is installed, log in using your MyBell username and password.

Fibe TV app (bell.ca)

What is Fibe TV app and how do I use it : What is Fibe TV app? (bell.ca)

You can install and log in to the Fibe TV app on multiple devices; however, you may only stream content on two devices at a time.

Take care.

We’re seniors trying to consolidate some services as we don’t use them as much now and it’s become too expensive for our pension.

I’d like to keep my Bell TV package but cancel my home Fibe Internet … which the TV draws from. Is there a way to use my cell Internet to connect to my TV box rather than just watch it on my computer? Thanks so much.

Good Day & Welcome to the Bell Community Forum.

The Bell Community is a place for you to ask questions, find answers and share your thoughts. This is a true peer-to-peer community space. As such, we do not have access to your account & billing details.

I will do my best to assist you in answering your question.

A Fibe Internet package is required in order to have Fibe TV service. Your mobile device when accessed from your home is connected to your Bell Fibe Internet. It is connecting by way of your home Wi-Fi. To do so, you require Internet service & a Bell modem. When you use your mobile device on the go, you are accesing the wide world web & all of your applications by way of your cellular service. You are using  cellular data.You also have the ability to connect to another Wi-Fi network if one is available.

Have you looked at your current Fibe TV & Internet package to see if you can possibly adjust & reduce some of your costs by making some changes to them?

Can you please provide me some of your account, equipment & device details.

1. Which Bell Fibe TV package do you subscribe to? Starter, Good, Better or Best?
2. Do you have a Bell Home Hub or Giga Hub modem? If so, which model number? 2000, 3000, 4000, or Giga  Hub?
3. Which Fibe Internet package do you subscribe to?
4. How are you watching Fibe TV now? Do you have a Bell PVR or Receiver? More than one? What is the model of the receiver or Fibe tv box?
5. Your Bell Mobility subscription? What does it include?
6. Do you have a Smartphone device? Make & model?
7. Have you contacted Bell Customer Service & discussed your account & services with them to see if they can offer up some suggestions to best reduce your overall monthly costs? They are there to work with & for you to best meet you needs & requirements. Call: 1 866 310-BELL (2355) or dial *611 from any Bell mobile device.

I have included the following web link to give you some idea in terms of some of the differences in the Fibe TV & Internet packages & prices.

Thank you for your question. Yes, it is possible, BUT be aware that your cellular access to the internet uses data. Depending on your cell data package, you would be very likely to rapidly run into an over use and incur significant additional charges. When I have done that, as an experiment, the quality of video on the TV was not great, either. You would also require a video adapter for your cell phone. Apple makes one for iPhones. It’s a difficult decision, to be sure, but the data charges would potentially be the biggest down side with poor video quality being another.

So I would like to keep my Bell Fibe TV but want to change internet provider.  Are TV and internet separate entities so I can go with 2 different provider with no issues? 

[WelshTerrier]

Good Day.

Technically it is possible. They are separate services. You can subscribe to one without having the other.

From a pricing perspective, it may be more cost effective to keep both services with the same supplier. You will still need to have a Bell modem. You should discuss this further with the internet supplier that you are considering.

If you have a Bell email account, in order to keep it, you will need to have a Bell Internet account as well.

 Hi  I spoke with Bell concerning bringing my plans lower but they would not move from what I am paying.  So I am looking elsewhere for internet.  But I like Bell Fibe, thats the problem.  I will contact the other internet provider to determine my next step. 

thanks for your response.

have a wonderful day,
