    The blanch one was a nightmare. Do you think the offer on those sticks will last 5 months to do you to the end of the year? I’d like to do the same but afraid the offer will become obsolete and you’ve a stick that you’ll have to pay full price on?

    I bought a few sticks from DID as well, but I'm hoping to save them for a while before use. Do you know how long it is before they expire?

    Well I have used 2 and its has stacked so far ,I have added them to an existing a/c . When you connect the stick the first screen shows a code and a URL to enter it on via a PC or Mobile , I used a PC logged into my Now TV a/c and as soon as the second one was added the online portal updated to say my passes were valid until August 16th, I will add a 3rd next week and I expect viewing to extend to Sept 16th.

    I bought 3 of these, first stick worked fine.

    I assumed maybe because I bought 3 sticks it would just roll on. Got a nasty surprise when i checked my bank today, was charged 34,99 for sports extra pass and circa 30 something else for sports pass.

    I am considering ringing NOWTV up (although they only have a messaging or chat service?) To explain to see if i can get any joy.

    That shouldn't have happened? I bought a s tick with both sports passes on which worked for the first month, there were absolutely no T's & C's or small print to warn that after the month expired there would be charges for the month following unless you cancelled.

    My own fault for not checking on the account, but I'm hoping when I plug the 2nd stick in tonight I'll get ot watch the champions league semi



    On a side note: is this deal still running or now gone? got mine in power city

    Hi
    If you cancel sky sports or any package on Now TV follow the links to cancel the whole way and they will offer you the package you want at a reduced rate for 3 months.
    I’ve been doing this for years and don’t pay anymore than 9€ a month for entertainment and 9€ for movies.

    The package the stick comes in does clearly state on the back of it that it automatically renews at the full price when the free month is up.


  • Registered Users Posts: 561 ✭✭✭thenightman


    Hopefully a similar deal will be ran for the start of the PL season. I set a reminder on my phone to cancel the previous subs before the exorbitant full price kicked in. Didn't offer much of a discount when I cancelled either.

    I have now added 3 to my account, I setup a new stick each month and during initial setup of stick each month I used the original a/c and it stacked fine , The sports and sports extra packs acted differently as one added itself as a voucher that I had to activate.

    Can you pause a stream on Now TV or record something to watch later? Or does everything have to be viewed live? And what is the quality of the stream like, HD?

    Can't pause or record. No catch up option on sports i dont think although I could be wrong on that.

    IT's HD, but not fantastic quality.

    No pause or catch up I’m afraid. You could record the TV screen with your phone if you are out and missing the football but obviously that’s a hassle :P

    NowTV Sticks are now 29.99 in DID and come with Both Sports Packs , So All SKY/BT and Premier Sports Channels. These are stackable as I am on Month 3 using them on the same a/c . Just activate a new stick during the month and it adds a month on to existing pass.

    They always seem to roll out offers on the brink of things.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,983 ✭✭✭ooter


    Was in my local Tesco earlier and they had now tv sticks for €30 with sports pack on the label on the shelf but it has entertainment pass written on the box so didn't want to take a chance.
    No interest in the entertainment pass.

    So if you buy 12 sticks you've got a year's worth?

    Just got an email offer for 2 months Sky sports pass for €30.

    Got that voucher too and went for it, very good deal.

    I already have a now tv stick and account, if I buy another stick for my dad can I use my login on it and will he be able to watch content from his house or would I be better registering a new account for him?
