NOW TV - Entertainment passes

Heinz

I'm thinking of getting a Now TV box but have a query about the passes.

I see the standard price for a monthly Entertainment pass is £6.99 but what's to stop you from buying a monthly pass on Ebay for 99p (there are numerous entries at that price on there) every month?

Nothing to stop you, just be careful if buying on eBay that the scratch-off part of the voucher is intact, you don't want to pay for a pass thats already been used.
I bought several Now TV boxes from Amazon and Argos with prices as low at £9.99 for a box with a three month entertainment pass. I then use the passes by entering the codes on their website and I sold the boxes I don't need on eBay.

Thanks for that. Great idea but, unfortunately, £14.99 seems to be the cheapest for a box with 3 month Entertainment pass now.

Or go directly to Amazon:

Do note that this is a "deal of the day", so the price won't be held for long.

For info, you never really need to pay the £6.99 even if you get it through Sky direct. I had the free month trial, went to cancel it, they offered me 3 months half price. At the end of that, went to cancel, they offered my 4 months at £4 a month. Will find out what the offer is next. Had the same with Netflix, they offered me another free trial after I'd been off it for a while.

It can be done, but only be done by contacting them directly via their Live Chat (or posting something on their forum which may elicit a response from one of their reps).

Thanks Speedy. Will give Live Chat a go.

Yeah! Understandable that you might want to completely wipe your account and card details, but I think they generally prefer people to stay registered - so that you can come back and pay & use it again. By nature, it's a bit of a dip in and out type of service!

If you have no luck, you can set a payment PIN on your account. This will be required whenever purchase of a pass is requested, and should prevent anybody else from using your account to buy anything. And, of course, eventually your card details will just expire anyway...
