I click on the offer but the following page says payment error. My card and details are fine. Any ideas? 

[Anonymous User]

Just what I needed. I had reached the end of my current sub period just a couple of hours ago. The original deal had been a half price offer but this replacement far outstrips that one. Result!!!! 😀

Same here error it accepts my card takes 10p from my bank account  but doesnt allow me to purchase

[Anonymous User]

I am getting the same error.

I update payment details and cant follow the link anywhere...

[Anonymous User]

Yup exact same error for me about a problem with my payment card.

I applied a one month pass on the 22nd Sept then cancelled it straight away. People on this hotukdeals thread are saying they have been able to stack this offer on top of a £16.99 offer that was going the other week.

My account is also saying my current Sky Sports pass is due to expire 6th April 2019!

Can't get anyone on the live chat right now but I just know I will get the run around saying something like it's not applicable for all customers or something.

Just spent ages talking to two agents online, neither could really help nor explain the error.

Just told me they would leave a note on my account saying I should get this offer and to contact them the day before my current pass expires.

To be honest I just expect when I go back to them I will get told the offer isn't on the system anymore and can't help.

According to the offer T&Cs you can only have ONE sports pass on your account at any time. It clearly states it's not available to anyone with a current pass.

I have just been through the same process.  Spoke to two agents that to be honest were absolutely useless [computer says no!], lost at least an hour and a half.  Not their fault I must add, they are not briefed or trainined in technical issues, I say sort yourself out NOW TV [SKY].

I was asked to pay £33.99 and I would get a refund in 3-5 days, yeah okay I'll stand the cost to solve YOUR problems.

Have given up now so I gues that offer has been missed, never mind..

[Anonymous User]

@Anonymous Useryes I agree it says that in the t&c's. But when you see many customers being able to stack this offer on the previous one from the other week it's rather annoying when you can't. I didn't even take advantage of the last offer, paid full price the other week.

It just seems to be a common theme for NowTV in that the offers are all over the place with different people being able to take advantage while others can't. It's the very reason I stopped being a combo customer as you never got any of the offers others were getting as the t&c's always stated combo customers were excluded.

Luckily I started my week pass last Sunday at 2.30pm. 

Will apply on Monday for Arsenal game.

will save day pass for another time.

Can't, nor wouldn't, argue with that @Anonymous User  Things seem so disjointed at times. Ironically, the system wouldn't let me take the half price offer as I still had an active pass BUT, once I finished that sub through having cancelled it, I was able to take up the £9.99 offer instead. Most companies like more of our money, not less 😂

the offers are all over the place

It is the nature of marketing.  And on the whole, there always tends to be a good offer on Now TV lurking somewhere.

I find it odd that at the moment Now TV increase prices on Sports Day and Entertainment passes, they make umpteen offers. Probably to maintain subscriber figures reported as as result of the increases.

That written, a good time to have a £10 Sports Pass with the Rugby on ITV and UEFA on BT Sport. Best I remember previously was £13. Great offer which I hope gets repeated in December...

I CANCELLED my pass and didn't get an offer upon cancellation. I have an email to confirm the cancellation. Went into 'Passes & Vouchers' in My Account yesterday to find I've been put on a new offer starting immediately after this £9.99 offer ends. The new one is a further 2 months at £16.99 per month. It's a good price so I'm going to leave it on until the 27th when it kicks in to see if the service does in fact continue, and more importantly at what price.

I'm putting this up as a warning to anyone else who may have cancelled their pass and who may also have been 'forcibly' added to a new continuing offer without their knowledge.

[Anonymous User]

The same has happened to me. I have definitely cancelled it again and received the confirmation. 

[Anonymous User]

Pleased to say I have been billed at £16.99 so they have stood by the offer price. In Ireland it was a 3 month deal so I'm presuming the 'full' deal last month should have read '1st month £9.99 followed by 2 at £16.99'. This offer takes me up until after Christmas 😀

[Anonymous User]

I too cancelled.

I did not accept the £16.99 3 month offer and I have Sky's email to prove it.

They have charged £16.99 to my card though.

Will be chatting to them.....

[Anonymous User]

Just been onto chat and got the refund and cancellation.

They claim my pass was reactivated on 4th October - it was not.

They asked if I have a payment PIN - I do and always have had - it even showed as active on screen as we chatted.

In short, they could not explain it.

Just FYI folks in case there are other victims.

After the refund I got an email from NowTV inviting me to email back if I had further questions about the issue.

I did reply and their reply was typically inept and useless as we've come to expect - pretty much denying responsibility and blaming my family members.

There's one possibility so I'm reaching out to the community experts - 

I have a Smart Box.

In "My Account", there's a "Start Watching" button.

I had bought the pass and correctly cancelled the ongoing renewal. I have their cancellation email to prove that.

The pass was already active and I had watched with it, but does pressing the "Start Watching" button reactivate the ongoing pass ? Choosing a programme in the guide does not - I know that.

If so then it's something that NowTV need to fix.

Thanks
