    New customer offer. BT Sport and Premier Sports €10 per month for 6 months .



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,260 ✭✭✭✭Sleeper12


    This boost price is just a starting point. I have boost in the UK and it went from £3 to £5 per month a few months ago. £5 per month just for HD is shocking. I have showtime, Netflix, hbomax, Hulu, Apple TV, prime and many more at different times throughout the year all provide 4k HDR at no extra charge except netflix.

    In the era of 4K Now TV can finally offer us Full HD on some devices but not all... I guess I shouldn't be surprised

    My 6 month half price Sports and Sports Extra offer is about to end. I said I wanted to cancel Sports Extra, and they offered it to me for another 6 moths at 10e. However not offering me anything for renewing Sports channels. Anybody now how one might get the offer.

    I got 2 months sky sports for €30 and just cancelled it and there are no further offers at the moment

    If I sign up for the €15 per month, 3 month offer can I cancel before the first month is up and not get charged for the remaining 2?

    Ta,

    It’s usually €15 a month a month up front so €45

    Does Now TV offer discounts if you select multiple packages? I currently have the Entertainment pass and am considering adding the Sports and Cinema passes, plus the Boost, but it seems to be more expensive than getting the same channels through Virgin 360.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,260 ✭✭✭✭Sleeper12


    Usually the best way to get deals is to cancel each channel, each month or when you are coming out of a discount period. I've never had sports but movies and entertainment are offered half price when you go through the cancellation process. I have UK Now. Boost is £5 per month. This has never been offered discounted if I cancel.

    I am finding the Now app on Apple TV to be a bit jittery. It’s as if it’s dropping frames and also motion is slowing down during some scenes.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 147 ✭✭112143


    I can't login on my android phone, fire stick or TV app, only on a pc.

    On my phone it says I'm in the wrong region, the app on the fire stick just restarts and the telly app says playback.errors.load.OVP_00200

    Anyone ever come across this issue?

    Everything on the same network.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 3,696 ✭✭✭Nigzcurran


    I’m getting the exact same error when I try to log in on the firestick, no problem logging in on the LG TV app

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 147 ✭✭112143


    I'm totally lost, I've been on to their support for the past few days with no luck.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 3,696 ✭✭✭Nigzcurran


    I tried deleting the app and reinstalled and still no joy. I’m lucky I can use the app on the tv instead

    Are you guys using a VPN or a DNS service? Could be that your account is one region and you're trying to access it on ano0ther region or the app is from a different region.

    I use DNS and when I go to NOW on my pc it tried to send me to the UK one.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 218 ✭✭handofdog


    Does anyone have a link for a Now apk that will work on a Firestick from Ireland. I've been on to support in Amazon and they are now pointing me down the route of a hard re-set on my firestick. Really don't want to do that!... Thanks


    No Vpn or dns here. NOW works fine on our phones and on NOW stick - just not on the firestick which is what the user is used to. Cheers



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 3,696 ✭✭✭Nigzcurran


    A user posted a fix for it on here the other day, think it was in the firestick thread

    I see NOW are offering 6 months Sports channels for 6 months @ €19.50 down from €39.50. Offer ends 31st March.

    It works out roughly the same if you cancel the Sports channels on NOW at the end of April after football season ends and re-subscribe in August when football starts again.

    If you leave at the end of April, are they likely to be making decent reduced offers come August next.

    Got the stick with Sports and Sports Extra membership, on offer for €25 so decent bargain!

    Question I have is can you use these memberships separately? Will use Sports in July for Ire v NZ in the rugby but not sure when I need Sports Extra for so would prefer not to probably use this in July when no soccer on.

    I've been getting this all afternoon (Firefox). Anyone else with the same problem?

    I cleared the cache but it made no difference. It's annoying me, now.

    Ok, it looks like it's related to whom I'm tethering with. If I use the data from GoMo, I can log in. As soon as I switch to 48, I get that error. I've just tried a speed test, I thought they both looked decent enough, if anything the 48 one seemed to have a stronger signal - or am I misreading this completely?

    (Screenshots to follow).

    Never mind... it decided to start working again. Thanks all the same.

    Does the Sky Sports Mobile Monthly Membership not work for all the channels on the Sports section. Keep getting random messages that I need a membership to view this content..

    Should really have googled first, 5 channels only with mobile membership..



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 3,696 ✭✭✭Nigzcurran


    Yeah it’s crap, ok getting it for free but I. wouldn’t even pay a euro a month for it, the Irish rugby games in New Zealand are on sky action which is watchable

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 417 ✭✭bugsyb4


    From memory Sky Sports Premier League is one of them so tbf that would be handy if out and about and a game on you wanted to follow.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,833 ✭✭✭✭Dodge


    The channels are Premier League, Action, Arena, Racing and News

    Not included are Main Event, football, Cricket, Golf, F1 and Mix

    I’m using a free 6 months sub they sent out a few weeks ago. Wouldn’t pay for it but managed to see a couple of things on it so fine for free obviously
