Cannot access NOW tv website.

I have NOW membership, an internet connection and paired the remote/stick. Where is now tv?

What "stick?" You need to have NOW TV installed on the supporting app.

I was referring to the smart stick, which I understood would pair with the remote and set up automatically. The NOW home page does not appear.

Agreed with @redchiz1 what device are you talking about?

You also mentioned you can’t access the website, very confused by this statement.

My apologies, the post was very unclear.

I am referring to the TV as the device and by the website I meant NOW's
home screen, which has never appeared.

Ah OK, which TV make and model do you have? Is it on the list of supported devices?

It's a Hannspree (I cannot check the model now) and it's not on the list.

It doesn’t matter what the TV is and it doesn’t need to support the Now app for itself, as long as it has an HDMI socket into which you have plugged a stick or other device that does support the Now app.

Now used to have a Stick you could buy, and before that, boxes you could use, but they no longer supply these, only the Now router, which is quite separate from any of the streaming devices.

I’m not sure if you have a Now Stick there or not; have you got one which you are failing to get set up, or what?

If you haven’t got a Now Stick, then a Roku device or an Amazon Firestick can be used to get Now. Curry’s have the Roku Express; HD for £20, 4K for £30. Firesticks start at £38. I prefer the Rokus not just on price, but because of their much less cluttered user interface.

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 don’t have a TV from the list of supported devices provided by @redchiz1 then you will not be able to get NOW.
