12 month TV pass deals for Black Friday?

Hi, I usually renew my 12 months of passes via the Black Friday Pass bundle deals. However this year there does not seem to be any deals on TV passes. Have I missed it, or do you know if there will be any 12 month deals please?

Thanks!

Looking for the exact same thing myself. So I’ve cancelled my passes that I bought last year and am waiting to find the yearly bundle for entertainment and movies.

I saw on twitter someone from Now tv replied to the same question and they aren't doing anything for black Friday this year. I try to cancel my passes based on "not affording" it offers me 6months half price for both cinema and entertainment then I just get an error when trying to accept

Well they'll be losing a bucket load of customers and cash then.

Last year, 2019 ,  on Black Friday, people from Now TV were telling people that there were ,'No Offers' planned , but later on the Day the offer appeared.

 

I would advise to be patient and maybe the same will happen again !

Hate to say but Now TV have ditched the Black Friday deals in order for personalised offers in your account or when you go to “cancel” your passes.

FYI that I do not work for NOW, just a NOW customer trying to help

entertainment and cinema half price for 6 months if you don’t currently have the passes.

 

Surprised there are no offers for new customers.  I suspect Now TV don’t believe there are many who haven’t tried it by now.

 

Also no more vouchers, so once my 6 months of cinema (3 * 2 months), my 3 months of entertainment and 13 months of sports vouchers loaded onto my accounts have gone, I will have to cross fingers and hope for offers.  Of course that is presuming there is some TV and Cinema being produced.  Doesn’t appear to be much prospect of many new movies in the new year as nothing much was released after March this year.

Again as others have pointed out, that 6 month offer for Entertainment and Movies is not generic.

Seems to be as random as those getting Sky sPorts offers.

As of 1st Dec I have Sports and that it, once the NFL season is over i'll cancel that. Will go back to Disney+ for over Xmas.

@Anonymous User if you can, take a screen shot of the offers and jump on live chat. They'll manually apply them at their end.

 

For the others saying that they don't have any offers, or not receiving retention offers, do what I do and jump on live chat to see if they'll offer you anything. In recent weeks I've been given a heavy discount on entertainment and sport when asking. On the flip side, they wouldn't offer me anything for movies but there's no harm in asking.

For anyone who needs it...

they didn't budge for me when asked for Sports...

which is the only thing I'd be interested with from them at this moment as they (as Sky) have almost monopoly (barring illegal streams)

I can see the screen shot of a member showing how to get the 6 month deals but my account has no option for that ?

I did try going to the chat for NowTV, but I go a completely useless Bot that did not understand anything :(. There seemed to be no way to actually chat to a real person, so I gave up.

For various reasons I have more than one account that I have used in the past and checking them the 6 months offers appear if you don’t have an active pass.  So cancel them and see what happens when they expire.

 

Again, I get the sports offers on these accounts as they don’t have sports on them.

My issue is that it is a year where people are really struggling with what is going on with the COVID situation. We’ve all (with a cinema pass) seen little or nothing new appear for months on our subscriptions but I guess none of that is important.

There have been a fair number of new movies and that will continue into December, but come the new year pretty much every film released pre-COVID will have been on Netflix/Prime/Now/Disney+ will have been shown, so no idea what will premiere for first six months of the year.

Thanks all for your replies! Much appreciated.

 

That's a shame as I always renew on Black Friday and not willing to pay the full price. I will try the cancellation of the passes and see if it offers me anything. I wont renew at full price..

I have had the black friday deal for the last few years. Its disappointing that they are not doing it but have netflix and disney+ tofallback on.

Oh well, it was good whilst it lasted I suppose. I’ve cancelled my parents and my passes from last year so I guess no more Now TV for me past the 4th December.

 

Seems a shame but I just can’t justify the price above that 12 month offer in the past. Particularly in the current economic climate.

Oh well, no more nowtv for me either then, it's definitely not worth the money, even with the current 6 month deals they got on.
