Just noticed this today (never seen it before in 8 months of viewing) - after selecting an episode of something in the watchlist, a 15 second pre-episode NOW TV advert/trailer for some other TV show played first then it began playing the selected episode.
I quite liked having no adverts and trailers on NOW TV Entertainment!
Is this the future then for NOW TV Entertainment?

If NowTV did a Customer Poll asking the question "Do you mind a short advert promoting other shows on the nowtv service at the start of watching either a catch up or boxset episode".
Then i don't think you need to be Mystic Meg to know which option would win by a landslide ?

So I'm paying a subscription to watch epsiodes of television series. Yet I am bombarded by adverts... why am I paying to watch adverts? Why are any of us?
If they are getting advertising revenue then we shouldnt really be paying a subscription surely?

Hi @Anonymous User,
The live channels have adverts, as we stream exactly what's broadcast on Sky. Is this what you were watching?
If you watch any on demand content (Catch Up or Box Sets) then there shouldn't be any traditional adverts. Occasionally there are promotional videos highlighting what else is on NOW TV, but no adverts for other products or services.
Thanks,
Jason

Nothing has changed in 2021 apparently it is getting worse the layout on the channel is awful you are going back and forth to get to an episode and then back to the season it is ridiculous why did they change the layout it was much easier before the change.
Too many ads I just go back till they stop, as you are paying a subscription there should not be any ads If I wanted to know what was coming next I would check geektown tv as it is more accurate

Is the “advert” for NOW content or third party like Tesco?
Take a look at this link.

Hi @Anonymous User,
Out of interest... What were you accessing to watch when you saw these adverts?

There's no need to waste people's time asking for more details like this - they are prevalent throughout the Now TV output and are a totally unwarranted and unjustified imposition wherever they appear.
