@Anonymous User Assuming you're not using a VPN or have made other changes to your broadband to make it look as if you're not in the UK then it's either your tablet that's not compatible (although at quick glance looks like it should be) or it's something to do with the way your Play account/Google Wallet is set up.

 

I'd suggest posting a message on the Google Play forum first to see what suggestions the experts there come up with and then if they say it's nothing wrong with your account you'll have to come back here

 Welcome to the forum. Is it a UK bought model and you are in UK with store settings set to UK? You can try installing direct from the Play site

 

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bskyb.nowtv.beta&hl=en_GB

 

If you post the model it might help. Some of the Lenovo models have modified versions of Android to support extra functionality eg the 2-1 type devices and NOW TV might not run on these devices.

Argos in London is where it came from. The app simply does not appear on play, I'll check your link

Hi Guys

 

Is it possible that Google's PlayStore does not see Ironclad's tablet as having an authorised version of android?

Lenovo make Android, Windows and Chrome tablets.

Which sort is yours? (Model number will help also).

Android - should work.

Windows I don’t know. May be OK if it’s enough like a PC.

Chrome - probably not compatible, as certainly, Now does not run on Chromebooks.

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.
