duration of pass that comes with stick

I've got a sky sports month pass already activated (today) which I watch via an app on my TV downstairs. I want to watch it upstairs as well, but I've only got an Amazon firestick on the upstairs TV (its an old LG TV with no apps). So I think I need to buy a specific Now TV stick to watch it upstairs which is a pain. I'd rather pay £30 for a stick with another month of sky sports than £15 for a stick to watch the sky sports I've already paid for, but can I activate the stick without starting the voucher? i.e. activate the stick upstairs, watch the existing Sky sports voucher on it; and after a month activate the voucher that came with the stick?

 

Any advice welcome.

Hi Joanna4

 

Buy the £30 Stick, put it in the upstairs TV, and make sure when setting it up that you use your existing account details.

 

The Voucher on the Stick will then go and live in the ‘Vouchers waiting‘ part of My Account/Passes & vouchers, ready for you to bring it down and activate it when you are ready.

 

Which you can even do while in the last month of any existing Sports pass, at which the new pass will line itself up, ready to be moved seamlessly into when the current pass expires.

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.
If you take an offer that comes with a ‘free trial’ of Boost or another Membership, Cancel them straight away. You will still get the full duration of the trial, and if you decide you do want to continue with one or another of the trial products, just revisit the Cancel, and UnCancel it.
