Hi f6cow,
NOW TV is a UK only service, so can only be used within the UK.
Thanks,
Steve

This not a solution it is a negative response. We live in a global world in which we pay for services. That service should be available globally.

@Anonymous User unfortunately it is down to licences. It seems a lot of people would like to take Now TV with them on holiday. It is a shame not away of saving a program for a specific time to watch offline as I think that this would help.

@Anonymous User it's marked as the correct solution as it's not possible to watch NOW TV abroad.
I totally appreciate that the world is a much smaller place these days, and people travel a lot more, but content licensing works completely differently.
To be able to show something on NOW TV, we have to buy the rights to allow people to watch in the UK. If we wanted to allow people to watch in other countries too, we'd need to buy the rights to every single country, which would naturally have a huge impact on the price we have to charge customers to watch.
Thanks,
Tom

Although we live in a global world, media content copyright protection is regional, not global.
Protecting the content provided by any copyright holder is a legal requirement which should be adhered to by every company who purchases and distributes such content within their territory only.

If I have a subscription for the entertainment package, can I not watch nowtv on my iPad if I disable location services?

@Anonymous User
Only if you are within the UK or Northern Ireland, VPN will not work with the NowTV app.

With resect. Circumventing copyright restrictions for the NOW TV service is not a subject that can be discussed on this forum!
