3 months of sports for that price would be good. Sadly they rarely discount sports and never to that level.

it connects to sky's servers so always seems to be up to date

I suppose another way of looking at it is: a 30-day rolling contract (or ~90-day in case of a 3-month pass), without having to give 30-days notice - as one can cancel right up to & including the day the current pass expires.

Yes, that's right, as long as you remember to add a pass with ~30 days or fewer to go before the current pass expires.


Yes again, & you'll only get charged on the day after your current pass or offer runs out. So, in the example I gave earlier, payment will be taken on July 1st if you forgot to enter a new pass or forgot to cancel (before July 1st).

Ah right so instead of cancelling 30 days before it runs out I could add another pass and that way no direct debit or if I forget to add a pass or cancel then they will charge me via direct debit

Yes, cancel it (or, if you'd like it to continue, apply another cheap pass) ~30 days or fewer to go before the current pass runs out.

Yes, cancellation can be easily done online. Once you apply a pass, the only option that becomes available is 'Cancel'.


You can still apply passes only (but yes, entering payment details are a must as well).

There's an app available as well for phones & tablets (but they can't be used to make important account changes):

Cheers for info crossbow, so basically 30 days before whatever pass is due to end bang a cancel notice in. Can this be done online or do you have to call them. Wasn't keen of entering bank details as I've been bitten before with company's still taking money when things have been cancelled. Thought it would be possible not to enter anything and just buy passes. Suppose Now Tv prefer bank details entered in case customers forget to cancel
Better get a calendar as my iphone calendar is full of reminders

Either way, you'll need to enter payment details. This can't be avoided under any circumstances.

The good thing about it is that you can cancel the next (large) payment going out by cancelling the current pass / code when there are fewer than 30 days to go to the end of that pass. It will still let you watch right up to the point when the pass ends.

So, for example, you apply a 3-month pass / code on April 1st, which will run up to & including June 30th. Before the next large payment is taken (which will be £9.99 for Movies in advance for the next payable month - i.e. July), you can/should cancel the pass starting June 2nd onwards. It will let you watch up to & including June 30th with no further payment taken in July. Or, if you would like your subs to continue uninterrupted, with less than 30 days to go to the expiry (so again June 2nd onwards), you can apply another cheap pass / code for July & subsequent months.

To remember the above, I just setup reminders on my Android phone (any inbuilt/free calendar app will do) & also on my PC (I use the free WinAlarm for this).

Thinking of trying one of these Now Tv box things for bedroom, but how do the vouchers, codes etc work.
Read somewhere you get 14 day free trail of certain passes but also read when registering you have to enter bank card or credit card details. I for one don't like sound of that and would prefer to just buy the passes from other retail outlets and do it that way.

Very good deal been thinking of trying the new smart box in the bedroom

Just signed up for this offer via my phone & it seems to work. £3.00 showing on online banking already. Nowtv show voucher ends 14/6/17. Does anyone know as I've paid in advance If i hit cancel before this date will I still be able to watch???

Has anyone got a code for entertainment pass for existing customers?

link is working now. Just signed up. Will check credit card late if they have charged the correct amount.

Thank you OP.

Thank you!

Yes, iPad needs to have iOS 6 or higher - see: Devices that are compatible with Chromecast

Has this offer worked for anyone?

Can I use Now TV app on ipad and Chromecast onto my TV, like Netflix?

Thank you.

They can be connected to the Wi-Fi - a stable & minimum of 2.5mbps is needed, so check your Wi-Fi connection's speed just in case.

If the speed is not good or reliable enough, you should consider a Powerline adapter, which costs ~£15 for a pair - example: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01KKEZ8NY - you'll just need a free mains socket close to the NTV box, & a short ethernet cable (probably included with the PL-adapters), to connect the PL-adapter to the NTV box.

Do these now tv boxes have to be wired direct to home router or can they work via Wi-Fi as considering one for bedroom but router in lounge.

Deal looks fine again now.
Sign up page shows £3 for 3 months

You know i cant quite remember i just picked a random one, but i also just signed up so maybe its because im new?

What did you enter as cancel reasons for the movies please? I just cancelled saying can't afford it and not paying elsewhere for movies but got offered zilch.

So i signed up for this deal and also found out its for LG customers only, so I started a chat with them and played the fool and managed to get 1 month free Entertainment pass code from the guy.

So i'm getting 45 days of that, then I canceled it to stop the contract from rolling over and then I got an offer of 1 month free movie pass, so i accepted and again went to cancel it and after that I got offered 4 months of Movies for £4.99 a month, which I've taken.

Haha very funny. Yes i was as now tv just getting people to sign up with important details ie bank details for no reason.

Yes as there is a little-publicised live viewing feature for the channels they carry. They don't shout about it because they want people to pay for Sky

​How many months is that for and what detours it them go up to?

Well expensive.

Aww cool I didn't know you didn't need a TV license for this

I am going to expire this deal now folks,as you should have a page showing the £1 a month discount,but its now showing a sign up page with £6.99 to pay after the trial.
Well done those who got it.

No joy getting it to work last night... Went through the steps and created a new account, but it just prompts me to buy regular passes after signing in.

Here's why: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:https://www.ft.com/content/7008b23e-e3a7-11e6-8405-9e5580d6e5fb

Ah yes , I bumped into Mr Lincoln last week, looking forward to it :sunglasses:

People are easily conned aren't they? They now make you pay for a free trial.

For Tv 200mbs broadband, all calls including mobile, line rental, all sports channels including BT, all movie channels, and 4 TiVo boxes. So not extortionate. For tv on its own yes, but not the full package Learn to read

Wow that's extortionate..£100 per month for TV.

Paragraphs!!!

You must be...all that money it's cost you. Oh wait.......

Shouldn't the title mention this is for just the entertainment pack and not all Nowtv?

​Thx man. so we can't watch discovery channel in end of February :disappointed:

Always sign up as a new user with sky. We did.. All calls anytime including mobiles, All tv channels & HD inc box sets, fibre unlimited 2 boxes £36 only thing missing is movies but meh 12 months.

Read: Sky and Now TV could lose over 20 channels in February:...including Discovery Communications channels

​how do you know :confused:

Just had a lovely chat with one of their support guys. Couldn't do £3 for free months, but did give me a 2 month free pass after the 14 day trial. Just got to remember to cancel now!

You need to read the fine print !
18+. UK only. Offer for new NOW TV customers only, who take offer through LG. First payment of £1 for 3 months, after offer period NOW TV Entertainment Month Pass automatically renews at £6.99 unless cancelled. You can cancel at any time. You must redeem by 7 February 2017, code thereafter is void. See full terms at nowtv.com.


ONLY VALID TO NEW LG TV OWNERS

Where did you find this out?

When I followed the link through it said 3 months for £3, my bad.
I've just found out there is also no way to delete your NowTV account. They keep it active, holding your card details under their "data retention policy". Fantastic if they get hacked.

i echo previous post
It doesn't work, used the link and all it offers is a 14 day free trial

So I followed the deal link, followed appropriate links and signed up. It's not given me any pass and offers me trials for all of them and the standard prices after the first month. Anyone get this working through PC as the link says "Offer for new NOW TV customers only, who take offer through LG."

OP here,clicking the link now gives a sign up page.
When I posted the offer it showed a page with the £1 a month details,so the weight of HUKD seemed to have stopped the offer.
Time to expire,methinks.

Obviously.

Just tried and it isn't working, must be one use only. Oh well, thanks for the offer :smiley:

Ok so I've e just spent 30 minutes on the live chat on this bull tihs offer, like others I signed up thinking £3 for 3 months entertainment package sound pretty good to me. After signing up it looks like you are only actual signing up for an account and not the deal for 3 months for £3 entertainment, during the online chat this is what the first and second person I chatted to said. They then both said to sign up for the 14 day trial, I was like look you advertised the deal so please honour it. They said I'd have to sign up again from the deal link to see if it would work, I said there's no point in doing that as my account is already up and running. Queue 3 chat agent..... explained it all to them again and they said the best they could do was if I logged into my account and activated the 14 day free trial they would give me a code for 2 months entertainment package for free, so rather than 3 months for £3 I'd get 2.5 months for free effectively. Save any more hassle I agreed, activated the 14 day free trial, they generated a voucher code for me to apply and I'm good to go until 9th April. Oh and I stored the chat and the code so it might work for others too, it might also be a unique code that I've applied and won't work for anyone else. Worth a punt folks, here it is NOWKD4KEXRXXXC

​You might convince them but it did say at the time thank something like :-Thank you for subscribing and you get the first month free.
As the original poster said, you had to go to your account and then cancel each subscription.

I also used the two months free Now Movie channel codes but as yet only have bothered to watch one film.Is it me or aren't these nearly all older films with little that's recent?

I definitely would do... The codes were obviously valid otherwise they would not have been taken at the time, so the very least they should do is cancel this month's viewing and refund.

Voted cold. No Discovery Channel from Feb. ;-)

has it worked for anyone yet, without the need to contact them?

Thank you, I will try this

I think this is more YouView's issue than NowTV - one of the conditions of them letting the App on their boxes, is that a competing television service isn't allowed, only Movies and Sports.

That's why NowTV don't advertise Entertainment (More specifically the live channels) as an option for YouView http://www.nowtv.com/devices/youview

I think there's also a restriction on the Movies too - some of the studios place a restriction that a movie can only be offered on demand whilst Sky have it in the rotation on the live movie channels - because YouView don't allow the live movie channels either, you can't get those movies on demand.

not bad at £ 3 for 3 months, I m paying £14 for 4 months

Brilliant! Thanks for sharing :P

Yes then you time out, sky the same.

Had to do live chat and it was
A right faff. Plus live chat is a PITA as they seem to
Disappear for 10 mins every time they say something

it doesnt seem to work via chrome browser on a chromebook, anyone else had any luck signing up successfully?

I've also got the entertainment pass deal (3 months for £1 per month), and that seems to be working ok - still being charged just £1 not the full amount. I'm just wondering if I call them and say that two vouchers were applied for two months free and see if I get a refund? Thank you.

If I click the down arrow, it says next payment 23 February, but they took a card payment for £9.99 on 23 January out of my bank account.

Yes, £9.99 - I check my online bank account every morning when having breakfast.

Signed up and it doesn't work. Very annoyed.

Spoke to NowTV on twitter then webchat refunded me £3.99 on first mth then gave me 2mths free which works out £1 per mth happy with that..

Think they have pulled the previous series box sets of walking dead!

​gone right downhill last few series

I agree entirely, can't understand why they haven't fixed this. I mostly watch via Roku box these days so no longer have to deal with this, but when I do watch on my laptop I'm always astonished that they make it so hard for me to simply watch something on their site. I'm sure it didn't use to be like that when I first joined.

So set up new account and the offer does not work

Sent you a message. Let me know how you get on.

Welcome.

Could i have that code please. I am after movies in particular.

Thanks in advance.

Gone.

Have they definitely taken money from your bank account?

I thought the same had happened as the "voucher code" details have disappeared, but when you click on the little 'arrow' to show more details, it still says next payment due 23rd Feb.

Yep! it's got miles to go which i reckon is why they have lots of promos, i wouldn't pay for the service as it is currently.

I think most people use the Now TV app on their TVs or separate Now TV boxes to access the service (forgive me if I've misunderstood your usage).

There is also a Now TV app, which is much better (but very limited search) compared to browsing their site using a regular web-browser [this app can also be used to 'cast' the film to your compatible TV (or via a Chromecast) if you don't have a Now TV app or box]:
For Android devices: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bskyb.nowtv.beta&hl=en_GB
For Apple devices: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/now-tv-movies-tv-shows-sky/id512266300

I don't think they're competing well with Netflix, thus having to make up these offers to attract people to sign-up - possibly with the hope that they don't cancel before the offer expires, thus having to automatically pay full price from month 4 onwards (for 3-month discount deals). But, as you can see by the popularity of these deals, it works for many people (me included) as I've only ever paid the full price once (to get cashback).

Did something similar and all i had to do was contact them via chat, very convenient plus they have to try and resolve your problem cause you'll rate them in the end which i think is brilliant :wink: . Another advantage of chat is you can also save the conversation for reference later, just in case the reimbursement doesn't go through the first time it's actioned.
Hope that helps :smiley:

The NOW TV interface is absolutely shocking. Who did Sky hire to design it? Hilariously, when you sign up, there is no link sent in an email anywhere that takes you to NOW TV's service so you can start enjoying it. You have to GOOGLE 'Now TV' and then log-in, navigate 3-4 confusing screens asking if you want to subscribe even though you are already subscribed and logged in, before you manage to get to the page you need to. Then, the search function is godawful too. Doesn't activate sometimes when you press enter. Absolutel madness from Sky if they think they are going to compete with Netflix like this.

It doesn't work, used the link and all it offers is a 14 day free trial

same, spoke to now tv live chat and they didn't know anything about the offer

Signed up but it hasn't applied the voucher :disappointed:

Has anyone used this link and got it to wrk?

Thnaks for the link £3 for 3 months :smirk:.

Used. Thanks. Just dumped sky and went for virgin media. 4 boxes all channels all calls and 200m internet speed and it is! £100 a month. Sky was £145 for 3 boxes and crap internet speed and calls weren't included. Only issue was no sky Atlantic hence now tv. Thanks!

just use a different email address/ hey presto new customer

I don't have a now tv box. Do I need to buy one? I have virgin ATM.
No clue how these things work,

If I use my existing NowTV box but sign up with a different email address will I be able to use the offer? Sorry, this may seem like a stupid question to some!

I entered one code and a few days later another code came up, so I entered that as well - from what I can remember, after the second code had been added on, it said that no payment would be due until 23 February.

I took out the 2 months of Sky movies deal back at the end of December (two codes to enter) - when I entered the codes it said that no payment was due until 23 February, however, today I've noticed that they have taken £9.99 out of my bank account, and on my subscriptions page they have changed it to only one month free!

Thank you! Hubby and son will be very pleased!

Yes that's right, they will have boxsets for each season, so as you say you can binge anything you've missed so far and then either watch the new episodes when they go out on sky atlantic or watch via catch up :smiley:

Sorry if this is a stupid question as I have never subscribed to Now TV before. Does this mean I can binge watch fist half of Walking Dead Season 7, and then after that, have to watch it on a weekly basis from 13th Feb? Thank you.

NowTV on Youveiw is only for Now Movies. Other channels have not been set up by TalkTalk or BT yet.

ALWAYS worth a try :-)

I'm not sure. Don't mention the codes, just say you thought you had cancelled this month and ask if they'll do it for you. Worth a try. :smiley:

I used the two codes that were posted on this site - do you know if the codes were only supposed to be for one person only? Just wondering if they will ask me where I got the codes from?

Try it on a laptop desktop site rather than through your TV ... some codes work on a PC / Laptop that don't work on a TV screen

​useful link showing all box sets currently available:

they do 3 month cinema pass for £3 with nus

Why not google "free trial of Now tv movies" and see how yer get on?

Good Luck

Yes, I just canceled it. It's Entertainment pass and I was after the movies...

Wanted movie pass as a gift but enteryainment only.

wait, I followed the link, I left my details, I paid, but it still won't let me watch the movies or anything else. It offers me the movies which cost extra to watch.

is the last season in full on nowtv please? may do this deal to catch up and start new season. as stopped sky last year.

walking dead that is.

Great!

13th Feb

I used this code for existing customers a couple of weeks ago, it still might work 8NGWZTHT

Just in time for the walking dead !

3 months of sports for that price would be good. Sadly they rarely discount sports and never to that level.
