dulpit · 25-11-2019 02:07PM #1

Hey all,

Spotted this in Dunnes today, seems like a good deal for Christmas. Now TV Stick with multipass bundle which, if I am reading this right, gets you the stick, 1 month Sky Cinema, 1 month Sky Entertainment, 1 week Sky Sports, 1 month Kids and 1 month Hayu passes.

See attached pics. Available until 2nd December.

Thanks- I bough this and can confirm it is eligible as part of the €10 off vouchers for over €50 spend (when I bought last week)...

Saw this today as well. I notice that the rte player is listed on the box but I can't see any mention of being able to source this anywhere else including the now Ireland website. Can anyone confirm that it actually works and how easy it is to use?

Does this come with a voucher that can be applied to an existing account?

The codes come on a card that you have to scratch to reveal.
You can enter the codes to any account you want.

The stick requires a HDMI port and also needs to be powered via a usb port in the tv or by the supplied mains adapter.

Codes no longer on a card. The passes are preloaded on the stick itself. The passes should be automatically applied when you link your account with the stick

These are €19.99 in did.ie unless specs on the stick differ

NoeldeBournaix · 25-11-2019 07:49PM

Seems to be a 5euro Just eat voucher included as-well

Looks like the passes included in the did offer are different.

Did, €19 stick +
- 2 months entertainment pass OR
- 2 months cinema pass

By Comparison it looks like the Dunnes Deal includes for €25
- Stick AND
- 1 month entertainment AND
- 1 month movies AND
- 1 month kids AND
- 1 week sports

Both decent deals, depends on what you want.

EDIT:

It looks like did also have the multipass pack for €25 and powercity has both the €19 and €25 bundles too. Curry's has just the cheaper bundle and it is €20. Argos has these bundles too, but not at reduced price, but I wouldn't be surprised if they are reduced later in the week too.

in pc world in Cork I paid 30 for a stick with a full month of Sky Sports + Sky Sports Extra (BT, Premier Sports)

Well happy with it.

Zaph · 26-11-2019 01:52PM

Do all the passes activate as soon as you start using the stick, or can you choose when you want each to start?

I assume the RTE player and Netflix will work without a Now TV sub? Is the 1 month sub included for all packages concurrently?

Is it just the rte "catch up" player or can you watch shows live on rte?

Red Silurian · 27-11-2019 01:20AM

Does the sky sports pass in this include the sky sports extra pack (premier+bt sports) or is it just the soccer package

Not used it yet mate tbh rte player is EVIL.

dockysher · 27-11-2019 11:51AM

Are u able to download Iptv on now tv stick? Or would amazon fire stick be needed?

NateDogsCats · 27-11-2019 04:48PM

I have a Sky Sports pass currently and the PS4 app but I find that app isn't the best at times especially with my poor internet service. Wondering if I ought to get this especially since our smart TV won't let me install extra apps so I've no access to RTE or Virgin Media Player unless I whip out the laptop and hook it up.

Used to be scratch-off codes in the box. Now whatever package you purchase is tied to the stick and automaticaly activates once you've set the thing up.

I purchased a two month Entertainment one as alrady have the half price Sports deal (now expired)

For anyone interested you can get a months free Sky Movies code with each purchase of a premium meal at Supermacs

Yes sort of, but once you use the new stick, it will obviously be available on your other devices, plus, you can reset the "new" stick to factory and do what you wish with it., so basically it's the same as the scratch off codes, but a bit more faffing about.

I dont the answer to your question, but keep in mind Sky arent showing the St Stephens day fixtures.. theyre exclusive to Amazon Prime now.

I can get amazon. Prime free as I'm an eir customer. So that would include the matches! Great.

Not to hijack this thread but with the firestick can I install Eir, RTÉ player & other apps?

Not RTE Player, though it does have TG4 Player, I'm not sure about Eir.

Of course it has a ll the UK players, but certain unmentionable services need to be used to access them here in Ireland. Of course there is also Netflix, Youtube, Plex, etc.

BTW I recommend the Fire TV Stick 4k, even if your TV isn't 4k. I had the old non 4k stick and found it very slow, the newer 4k stick is much faster and much better even when used with a standard HD TV.
