I have Just been showing my NowTV box to a good friend of mine.
He would like a box also but as he is retired he has no credit or debit card.
He is going to buy a box from tesco with an included movie pass.
Is there a way he activate his box without giving a card number?
As a pensioner of the old school he is not very trusting of company holding his financial details.
Can I buy passes for her and give her the numbers to input?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Watch dog won't give a dam... it won't get any air time...
They never cared about Lovefilm, Netflix, Amazon, Crunchyroll, MLB, NHL, NFL, Itunes, Google, PSN, Music unlimited.
All requiring cedit/debit cards for their Free services and trials, when you set up accounts.

Sell the box and pass separately on eBay.
You will make more than you paid for it.

I have just read the live chat between you & Sky. Thank you so very much for posting it. I really do hope you are able to get your money back. My Mum has had this as an early Christmas present & is right now quite excited about it. I am now faced with the idea of upsetting her. You chat with Sky was informative & very helpful, even if they were not. I wish we had known about this little detail before getting it. You are a good person for posting this. I hope that karma repays you soon. My sincere gratitude.
Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year.

Welcome to the community.
You could always set up an account on her behalf using your details if you wish. When you set up an account you can turn on a Payment Pin that will prevent your mum from accidentally purchasing any passes. This will allow her to make full use of the free catch-up apps on the box, as well as having the option of subscribing to NOW TV in the future if she checks with you first (as any passes would be billed to your payment card).

That is what we have done. Good idea, thank you. It was just a surprise that they ask for credit card details. Still very unsure.

@Anonymous User The credit/debit card is used to verify that you are 18 or over and live in the UK. Hope that helps 😉

How on earth do these people get away with saying a paid for service (box) is FREE from ongoing charges then refuse to let you use it without collecting your payment card details.massive security risk when they get hacked!!

I cant see any reasonable reason why you (now TV) would require C Card details... I have bought a voucher.. Paid already.. it says no contract, by entering in my card details and agreeing to the T&Cs seems to consitute a contract.. oh an i would like a reply to my many emails
