How to access Crave

Can I watch other ways like app or casting?

What is Crave™ and how do I use it?

On my new mobility connection it said crave was included for 9.99 on the list of things on the add ons. I’m kinda confused about how to access this though. I don’t use bell tv, just a smart tv with other streaming services, I know I can download crave on it, I used to have it. But now how do I connect it to my bell account?

I received an offer recently of free Crave TV on my Fibe services which included iPad, Iphone and TV.  I was able to set up the services on my iPad and iPhone but I'm having trouble setting up for the TV.  Is it necessary to have a smart TV or a device such as a firestick (or similar) to get the Crave service?   Thanks for any info.

Good Day

In order to use Crave on a TV, you must have some form of device to allow you to connect & access the programming.

You indicated that your TV is not a Smart TV and you do not wish to use a streaming device such as Firestick, Bell Streamer, receiver, etc.

1. Can you provide us with some further TV detail? Make & model.
2. How are you using this TV today?
3. Which package do you subscribe? Fibe TV or Fibe TV APP.
4. Do you have access to Internet on this TV? Wi-Fi, etc.

Let us know & we will try to best answer your question.

Take care.

Thank you @WelshTerrier for your reply. I'll do my best to answer your questions.

1. We have an LG TV Model # 42LV4400-UA manufactured Oct 2011

2. Just watching channel TV stations

3. We subscribe to Bell Fibe TV, the Basic + 20 A la Carte channels. There is an APP button on the Bell Fibe remote which shows the Crave App but only for pay per view access.

4. No internet, Wi-Fi on the TV that I know about.

PS..We do have the Bell 15 internet service package which includes 15MBPS downloads, 10MBPS uploads and unlimited monthly usage. I'm not totally against upgrading a device to enable watching a streaming service, but  I'm 75 years old and a little concerned about doing any installation myself, I'm a bit technology challenged.

Thanks again, your help is much appreciated

Rgds, James

Good Day.

Based on the limited information you have provided I can only surmise that you are watching Fibe TV on your LG TV with a Bell Streamer that is connected by way of a Wi-Fi connection to your Bell Internet modem.

To access Crave on your Bell Streamer, go to the Apps Section & select the "Apps" button on your Bell Streamer remote. Select this the first time you wish to use the Crave app. You will need to log in If you have a Bell Mobility Crave subscription using your MyBell username and password.

What is Crave and how do I use it?

Thank you reaching out and posting your question. Let us know if we can be of further assistance.

Take care.

My Bell subscription does not work even when my mobility plan has Crave Basic. My plan's description is "2yr 175GB US/FR Max + Crave Basic on us".

What do I have to do to have Crave Basic activated.
