Hi Colette
First, I'm not Now TV, I'm just a customer like you and may be able to help.
I just have a couple of simple question:
1) Has your children's tablet been modified, added to or has had something new installed?
2) What is the make and model of the tablet?
I ask these questions because Now TV will not allow their programmes to run on modified tablets and, you probably don't know this, but some foreign made tablets are pre-modified before purchase.

Yes, as soon as we find a tried and trusted way to get to a link to Live Chat, NowTV pull the plug on it 😢
Another lovely trick is ensuring that when I am looking at a link to Live Chat, and I Copy it and Paste it here, it doesn’t go there when you use it 😢
But try this:-
https://help.nowtv.com/get-in-touch/technical-device-issues/adding-or-changing-devices
and touch the tiny blue chevron at the bottom of the page.
(Doesn’t matter how you get there, as long as you get to Live Chat. Or maybe it does matter, and you get routed to an expert on the topic you used to get to Live Chat, and then you ask something else. But that would be NowTV’s problem to sort out, not ours).
Their next trick is that nothing will happen on any decently well-configured browser, so make sure, if this happens, that you try again with a browser that isn’t your usual one, and so has none of the safeguards that Live Chat seems to founder on.
But they are anxious to get your call and help you, honestly 😛

I eventually found how to contact support - how difficult is this:
From your mobile phone load the now TV app
Click on the 3 bar menu top left
Select my account at the bottom
In my account scroll to the bottom select help
select "how to cancel a pass"
Scroll down and select "get in touch"
Select "Now broadband and calls"
Select "Cancelling my service"
Scroll to the bottom and select "how to get in touch"
Be warned, they don't care about your problems and only want to fob you off, be persistent. They know about the "viewing stopped" issue but will NOT refund you even though they are obliged to under the consumer rights act - see:
https://www.gov.uk/government/news/new-rights-for-consumers-when-buying-digital-content
Oh and if you raise a complaint with them they close it without offering any explanation.
Good luck

I've found that every time I try and view it on the TV it says it's not working come back later. The solution I have found is to press the 'My TV' button then go in to either continue watching or watch list and once in there then click the home button and it takes you to the main menu. Sometimes I have to click in to one of the programs on the fist bit and then the home button. This has been going on for about 2 weeks now. Once you've got in this way then the rest of the day the viewing is fine unlit you switch off and go on the next day. Hope this helps someone

Get in Touch (all the options, and the best place to start):-
https://help.nowtv.com/gb/get-in-touch/
On a screen with big buttons all around, you may find the link you need is under a tiny green arrow, so be vigilant.
Live Chat and Send Us a Message:-
https://help.nowtv.com/contact-us/managing-my-devices
On Live Chat, when you can get onto it, keep your answers short, sweet and prompt, or it will time out on you.
If the person you are talking to doesn’t seem able to understand your issue, ask to be escalated to the next level of help.
<If you can’t access Live Chat and nothing happens, try a different browser from your usual one (Internet Explorer, Edge, Chrome, Firefox, Safari) on which you haven’t disabled pop ups, third party cookies or indeed any cookies, haven’t set an Ad Blocker, and haven’t set Noscript on, or JavaScript off, as any or all of these things may prevent the Live Chat window appearing. Or try your usual browser in Incognito, sometimes called Private, mode.>
