    Why, you would be buying passes and a box from Tesco not NowTV, just add the pass to an existing account.

    The Smart boxes have been in Tesco stores for over a year now.

    PhilStation yes it’s the small black boxes
    Brewer Dave I just want to watch some films over the Christmas period and then cancel the subscription
    CraigR98 I don’t think so. I buy passes from E**y all the time for the Entertainment package. You just have to load them before the current pass runs out or pay that month’s subscription – as InnerZone mentioned

    Because a 4 month movie pass costs more than the fiver the OP paid.

    So, you get four months for £5 what is the issue? This is a money saving website.
  • Hi, Looking to get shot of Sky and get a Now TV box with entertainment pass instead. Only thing is I'd like to get Sky Sports News, but don’t want to sign up for a full Sports pass.

    Can I get it via the entertainment pass or is there an alternative avoiding the £34 a month? Thanks.

    It's available via an app on a Now TV Box, at no additional charge provided that you have an active Now TV Cinema, Entertainment, Kids or Sports Month Pass.

    If you buy a Sky Sports Day or Week Pass, this also includes 30 days access to Sky Sports News via the same app.

  • Thanks, that's made my mind up. Only really want it for Gillette Soccer Saturday.

    I would like to take advantage of NowTVs 14 day trial period. I currently have the following devices:

    1) Samsung UE40F6320AK
    2) Steam Box
    3) You View box

    I bought the TV in 2014 so I do not believe it is compatible. Neither is the steam box.

    I believe You View would allow me to access anything that is not live. I have a few questions:

    1) How does NowTV compare to Netflix?
    2) Is NowTV a more limited version of Sky?
    3) Should I:
    a) Upgrade my TV so that it supports NowTV
    b) Buy the NowTV box
    c) Use You VIew to access Now TV
