Just been kicked out because too many people watching at once (only 2) logged in to see what’s going on , my plan details says only 1 stream allowed, since when; been a member for years and always allowed to stream 2 devices at any one time.
how are they just allowed to change the rules like this, and not even notify you first?

Because it’s not a contracted service. Streaming services are allowed to make whatever changes they want whenever they choose to.
Not that we agree with the reduction, but there was plenty of indication when the changes would be implemented and what the changes were within your account section. As the changes took back in June it’s all moot now, if you want to retain the 2 or more streams then you’ll need to take out boost.

Well that’s fine, only stayed these past 12 months because they keep offering me a discount to stay, £3.99 for the first 6 months and currently £6.99; this gives me the kick I needed to cancel 😀

For me I was never effected because I took out boost for 1080p and 5.1 sound.
Plus I’m on a discount of £3 a month for boost.

Compared to other streaming services Nowtv offers poor value for money, 1080P and 5.1 sound doesn’t compare to Disney+ 4K / Dolby Vision & ATMOS, which only cost me £50 for the year, so I won’t be giving then any more of my money.

When you compare full price NOW with most other streamers then yes the value of money isn’t great.
However I’m paying £10 a month for boost, cinema and entertainment memberships.
With Disney+ you don’t get live channels.
Although I hate that NOW doesn’t have profiles.

You’re comparing apples with pears; it’s not the same programming.
Doesnt mean you can’t put a cap on your fruit budget though 😛

I wasn’t comparing the programming, I was however comparing the quality.
Nowtv are trying to force me to subscribe to their Boost by reducing the number of devices I can use simultaneously; they charge £5.00 for the Boost plus £9.99 for entertainment: Total £14.99, dearer that Netflix and Disney+.
Nowtv only offer 1080P + 5.1, the competition are offering 4K, Dolby Atmos / Vision, plus I can watch on more devices at the same time.
there is nothing on Nowtv I will miss so have no problem leaving.
Understandably subscribers are happy to pay Nowtv’s prices, however you can’t deny they are getting a raw deal when you compare the image & sound quality with the competition.

You can’t compare NOW full prices with other services cause of the consistent discounts they offer.

I paid £60 for a years Disney, even with your discounts you are still paying £120, so I can compare the two and say with confidence Nowtv customers are getting a raw deal.
