Signing up with Now broadband redirects you to the Sky website anyway .

Does it, wasn't aware of that.

Edit: ahh, just tried their coverage checker and right enough, it takes you to Skys website to check, although I'm with Sky so didn't take it further.

Interesting that Now Broadband has lost that bit of it's own identity.

You learn something everyday.😀

Was always a bit of an odd add-on to the TV service.

NOW TV has its worth as a way to access Sky product if you didn't want (or couldn't have) a dish, you got it PAYG over your broadband and they sold a variety of boxes/dongles to make it happen. Bit of sideways selling of a broadband service kind of made sense.

Now that most Sky customers are getting their service over broadband, and that often that broadband is Sky's it makes little sense to continue the Now Broadband branding/identity.

I think I had three different NowTV boxes and a couple of their routers over the years.

Still have a NowTV account but haven't accessed it for a long time.

Just checked, I've got 8, although I doubt if they are all still active.

Don't think they give away free trial periods quite so easily anymore.
