Watch Now TV on Sky Q+ box

I have a Now TV account but not a Sky account nor a dish.  Can I watch Now TV on the Sky Q box through the internet.

That’s the point. You can’t watch NOW on any Sky devices, you need Sky TV for using a Sky box.

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

Hi @RDH 

Nope.

Have a read of this on what devices are supported.

Thanks.  I have looked through the list of devices but Sky box is not listed.

I am a wee bit puzzled why you have a Sky Q box without a satellite dish? That's the only way they can receive a signal I'm afraid.

Also, the SkyQ box is rented and has to be returned to Sky when your contract is up.

You wouldnt have a skyQ box unless you had a dish at some point and didnt return the hardware.

Technically. There are other means of getting them though, but let's not embarrass the OP any further. 😉

The Sky box is not listed on this.

You can’t watch anything without a TV in the equation somewhere.

What make and model TV have you got? Is that listed as a device you can watch Now TV on?

If so, sorted; but if not, a Roku Express or Amazon Firestick, both under £40, plugged into a spare HDMI socket on the TV, will bring you Now, and a cornucopia of other apps,

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.
