NowTV do not accept a range of Prepay Debit cards for streaming subscriptions.

 

NowTV Broadband, who can cut you off in a heartbeat if the card does not have enough money on it for your monthly subscription, have different rules.

 

Have you got a regular Debit or Credit card you can use instead here?

Set a Payment PIN on your account so that no-one but you can buy memberships on it.
Check your bank accounts monthly for any other unexpected payments to Now.
That way you can at least nip them in the bud, while you and Now figure out whose fault they are.

Why can't I pay with my prepaid credit card?

 

though I agree it is perhaps unrealistic of them to expect you to have read all the Help before buying any passes, especially as Prepay works for NowTV Broadband.

 

Possibly NowTV Broadband and the streaming service should adopt a consistent approach to Prepay, to better set people’s overall expectations?

 

You might want to try moving to a Revolut or Monzo Prepay card, though, as @starman73 informs us that those work for passes, if that is still the case.
