I paid for the 10 month Sky sports season ticket at £199 back in August 2019 I bought this deal for the football season for which it was promoted. I just want to know whats going on with my subscription with there currently being no live sport etc. As it stands this 10 month pass expires in June and then I will pay £33.99 a month. I can’t find anywhere about this deal being currently ‘paused’ or suspended and have had no correspondence from Nowtv about it either. I know you can pause your subscription with Sky, but where does it leave Nowtv users..apologies if this has been asked/answered elsewhere I’m also finding the Nowtv site confusing to navigate as it’s quite clear they don’t want any customers contacting them directly at this time.

@gavs82008 In this case there is a contract to provide 10 months of sport, it is paid in advance and CANNOT be cancelled at any time
I have filled in the form....again no response and had been talking to customer service but have had no response from them for over 10 days.
General now TV subscription can be cancelled so you don't incur extra costs but with the season pass you can neither cancel or pause.

I have filled a complaint also, which I never like to do when just wanting to ask a question but there is no other choice. Also you don’t get any confirmation or case number so have no idea if it’s actually gone through.
I have this morning reached out to them on Facebook by commenting on one of their posts as they seemed to be replying there, it also then gives you the option if you ‘tag’ them in your post to send the message to them directly. Again I have no idea if these platforms are monitored too closely but it’s another avenue to at least try.

Hi EAB89 ,
Obviously, still no direct reply or acknowlegement to any of my online complaints.
But I did send an email to the Comms ombudsman (Cisas ??). The reply from them was very non commital i.e. it told me I had to wait 8 weeks before they would act. Not sure exactly 8 weeks from when though i.e. start of sports cancellation, last payment or what. So still no further forward.
Actually, I have sent details to my credit card to attempt to stop further payments (next due April 24th) with nothing in return for last payment (March 24th). Nothing from them either at the moment.
Haven't tried FB yet so I'll have to try that I guess as it does sound more positive - slightly...

Hi all just an update, not sure if anyone has FINALLY received something similar from NowTV but hopefully it’s positive news for all with Sports Passes.
‘We want to make sure we’re doing the right thing for our customers. We’re aware that your NOW TV Football Season Ticket will be ending soon and there are currently no official dates or plans in place for the remainder of the 2019-20 Premier League & EFL season.
The situation is constantly changing, but the Premier League & EFL are currently looking at ensuring the 2019-20 season is completed as soon as it’s safe to do so. So to make sure you don’t miss a moment of the action if the season recommences later, we’ll be extending your NOW TV Football Season Ticket - free of charge - for another month, and will continue to extend it until we know more about how the season will end.
You don’t need to do anything. Just make sure your Pass is active, not cancelled, and we’ll extend it at no extra cost to you before it expires. We’ll be back in touch once this is done and we’ll also let you know of any further extensions to your Sky Sports Pass if they’re necessary.
Thanks for your patience in these uncertain times.
The NOW TV Team‘

Funnily enough, I received this email today from Now TV.
As you'll see they're saying I can cancel my 6 month Sports pass at any time and restart it as and when the sports have returned. I think I will cancel before Friday when the 3rd payment is due. Unfortunately, I reckon that the restart will be at the regular price i.e. £33.99 rather than the £19.99 I'm on now.
So fingers crossed plenty of offers will appear when it does restart

I had the same email and had a few replies from NowTV. The help centre email I used only in January has now been closed so getting no joy in that department. When I did get a reply on how the problem was sorted, I can politely state that my reply was not so polite. Like many I paid £199 and yet it's great that we get a free months football "allowance", yet the reason for getting the package was that it allowed "all" sports and channels to be viewed, not just football. I can respect and understand that due to this time it's more a case of working from home. My payment was in August as others and yet whilst the NowTV team are happy to take money on other passes when it comes to sorting out this particular pass it's clear they don't know what to do. I had an option to redeem a voucher but it won't allow me to select the item - if the pass is cancelled I'm giving up on my option and closing the problem. From February to the end of June that's just over half of the term of the pass that's not being answered on what's happening. No phone calls answered, no emails, no online help, no live chat - no advice or options as to where to go from here.
