Black Smart Box not recognising login details

2 month old black Smart Box suddenly stopped recognising login details. 1.5hrs on live chat and they send out new one. Set up brand new one and same problem. Another hour spent on live chat. They are baffled and as tried everything to resolve and had a replacement they say they have to get the 'higher technical' department to email me. That was 2 days ago and surprise surprise we haven't heard from them. Really fed up now. Anyone else had this problem?

It would appear that when NOW TV issued their last 'app' update for (Roku) hardware playback devices, it broke support for some special characters...

Yes changed to watching on my phone and will re-try box later.  Have no special symbols in my password so hopefully a temporary glitch!

Hi @Anonymous User

 

 

Can you tell us if you have any special characters in your username/password or email address as this may be the problem? Special characters could be like these !"£$%^&

 

 

Cheers

Hi,

 

No there are no special characters in the username or password. The username was assigned by the system when i registered using my email address.

 

Thanks,
