cheers op, need to look at alternative to full blown sky soon as price hike is shocking.

I'm thinking the same thing. This could be the way to go. Go basic on Sky and then get one of these little boxes.
Now try cancelling Sky?!!! Did you get one of these boxes yet?

May just be my bad luck, but I have placed orders for 2 items from shopto.net, 18 months apart and received neither of them. One was a few weeks ago when they ran this particular deal before. I did receive refunds on both so not a big issue, but thought I should mention it, just in case anyone else has had similar issues

You can trade them in at CEX and other places.
I just want one of the boxes, actually, for iPlayer etc; sick to death of the slowness of the bloody useless TalkTalk YouView box!

Dumb question alert. I tried googling and it isn't exactly clear. Do I need to connect to an aerial for the tv part, or does it come via wifi?

What's better, this or an android tv box/stick
yusszn to dealfinder123321

depend to your need. You cannot install Kodi or other Android apps

get a Chromecast then subscribe to now TV on mobile phone. Chromecast stays out of site and offers you more (assuming you subscribe to now TV)

I've got Now TV (excellent), Amazon Fire Stick (excellent, and supports Netflix), Chromecast (a tad redundant now), and a few android sticks, but I'd definitely recommend the value of the Fire stick and Now TV in comparison.

Wow their site is cr*p. Tried to order 2 but will not allow me to input my credit card. Tries to connect with Sagepay but sits there for well over 15 minutes and then fails. OK so will try Paypal then. Enter details, go onto Paypal page and accept details but when it goes back to the Shopto site the delivery address has my postcode but my neighbours farm with no way to change it. Spent over an hour and still not managed to order. Tried 2 different browsers. **** off now and going to bed!

You can have 4 devices on one account. This will tend to be a now tv box + a combination of phone/tablet/PC but you are only allowed to add on devices 1,2,3 at one per month ie after 3 months you can have 4 devices on one now tv account.

if I were to buy 4 would I be able to use the codes and just save them? then have a year (or more) for £40?

The passes usually have a use by date on them so make sure to check that out first. Ask the op.

i have this orignal now tv box, and it is probably just as bad, maybe worse
The new version is £14.99 or £24.99 with a three month pass from nowTV themselves. Might be a better option
The new box is much better - so I would not bother with the old one. But it is a decent price for the code.

I only want my extra large VM package to watch HD programmes but i am also paying for free calls 24/7 and not using it.

I was lucky enough to pick up the latest black now tv box with 3 months entertainment for £15 at Tesco. The shelf had them mixed up with the older white boxes and someone forgot to change the shelf ticket. Scanned at £25 but they had to honour it for £15. New box is much faster, plus you have a usb port, network port and micro sd slot. Dont think you can use micro sd for media playback.

Passes Expire in 12 months.
Does anyone know where else you can trade in boxes apart from cex?
WORTHLESSACORN
17 Oct 15#29
What's the difference between the white and black new boxes
If you watch live tv on iplayer then yes, you do.
If you only watch the streaming sky channels or terrestrial shows on catch up, no you don't.
peterstyles75
17 Oct 15#34
The pass are valid for year from purchase so I'm assume if I buy 4 box at £9.99 I can use one pass code every 3 months saving £38 on cost of years entertainment pass and have 4 free now TV boxes
peterstyles75
17 Oct 15#35
According to cex website 90p cash or £1.99 trade in for now TV box white
jewelie to peterstyles75
17 Oct 15#46
Yikes, that's gone down. On the upside I'm guessing they're cheaper to buy from CEX too then? :smiley:
ST3123 to peterstyles75
17 Oct 15#47
What an utter con, can't see why anyone uses cex for trade in, you can see teir huge profit margin a mile off. To be fair though the value of the white now tv box has fallen and will continue to with the new boxes out but they can still be sold on eBay for three times the trade in/six times the cash cex offer with very little effort....
As for this deal, red hot! Just a shame the movies boxes aren't the same price though they are still a good buy at £12.85....

If you watch the live sky channels you do need a licence I believe as you are watching as broadcast. Nothing to do with BBC programs.

I tried putting plex on a spare now tv box and I'm quite impressed how good it is at streaming media from my pc. It was so easy to do and works well, i don't bother with my wd tv live anymore.

17 Oct 15#52
Stupid question I know
But does this work out cheaper than having sky. I'm thinking of leaving sky and just wondered
Kaz00ie to bargainhunter71
17 Oct 15#53
It's just over £3 a month so yes it will be much cheaper than Sky. My PS4 is my media hub and since it does Bluray, Now TV and Netflix that's more than enough for me.

Ordered 2 just for the 6 month pass. Cheers op :smile:

Yes but after the 3 month pass runs out how does the price compare then

17 Oct 15#57
Now TV is significantly cheaper than a Sky sub on Entertainment and Movies. The only exception is the Sports, which would work out significantly dearer but then few people need the sports channels all the time, so with the odd sports pass as needed would still probably be cheaper.
Also, with now tv getting the passes under rrp is very common, these deals seem to crop up every other month so, if you buy smart and keep a eye on HUKD for now tv deals, then you need never pay anything like what they are supposed to cost. You can't easily do that with a subscription as you only really have any leverage when you are out of contract and even then the discounts are rarely all that amazing....
jazzyman
17 Oct 15#58
Is it correct that you will only have an extra 13 channels with the entertainment 3 month pass?
Another question when the pass expires can you still receive the catch up TV?
GrabbaBargain to jazzyman
19 Oct 15#67
Entertainment pass gives access to those channels (watch live, or catch-up) and also all entertainment box sets that they rotate frequently. If pass expires you can still access other apps (BBC/ITV players etc). I think you need to have an active account (not sure if that means active pass) to access Sky Sports News HQ app.

You can get some great deals on a monthly NowTV Movies and Entertainment pack, saves a FORTUNE than using Sky .
paulday564
18 Oct 15#64
Unless you're massively into sport or desperate to watch everything in HD, I can't see why anyone would pay for full blown Sky any more.
Just ordered this purely for the 3 months entertainment pass - I'll keep the HDMI cable and batteries and send the box to CEX for £1.90 worth of store credit (all adds up). Assuming the cable's worth a quid and the batteries about 25p, thats £2.15 a month for the entertainment channels and I'm already getting the movies for £4.99 on the retention deal. Result!

Shame it doesn't allow to connect a USB stick or insert a card like Android and the types allow. :disappointed: Not really a fan of streaming content to the box as I prefer the videos to be in one place.

Can you use now TV on the fire stick as I have tried to find out but could not get answer
tubewayarmy
19 Oct 15#71
Oh you have used before? I read some people still have issues chopping and changing their sub for Now TV. This sounds a much better and cheaper option.
bigdarlodave
19 Oct 15#72
Not sure why you would get any problem as you would merely out your notice in with sky as now TV is a stand alone service not linked to your old sky account
tubewayarmy
19 Oct 15#73
I know the two aren't linked but just heard Sky is a real pain to cancel. This sounds the way to go though. Do you know if the Now box has the same movies as a full Sky account? Thank you by the way!

Just signed into my Now TV & my Mums sky go the movies look the same. Whiplash, Theory of Everything & Project Almanac all listed as the new releases.
Now TV also has a ps4 app (and probably xbox one) for enterainment & movies for people with them already connected to their tv
tubewayarmy
20 Oct 15#75
Ah cool! Yeah I have a PS4 and there is the app there too. Is it easy to change your subscription? Just wondering for instance if there wasn't many films on one month, how easy it is to skip a month? Thank you!
