Love Island Games NOT on Peacock

Hi guys

 

The Independent have issues an article which claims Love Island Games (massive all over socials right now) can be viewed on Peacock. 

 

I bought a NOW Entertainment membership just to actually see that there are 8 shows on Peacock and Love Island Games is not one of them.

 

This is pretty innacurate information, definitely makes the Sky/NOW brand not look very great!!

That article couldn’t be more wrong. Love Island Games has never been on Peacock in the UK.

The writer of the article has stupidly assumed that Peacock in the UK is the same as the US. When in fact it is NOT, the UK Peacock lineup is a joke and in my opinion a total waste of space.

Surely it's a C*** up rather than a joke...

The UK page referring to Sky & Now Customers has now been removed

I wonder wonder if might now get removed at the end of Comcast Financial year (31st December) like E! UK & Ireland apparently is.

It's about time that got removed. 

The "channel" had such promise to be the outlet for NBC content instead of Sky itself. Considering how nonexistent the content has been since the mass removal at the start of the year, it wouldn't surprise me for it to vanish completely and content just be moved onto their relevant Sky channels.

Sky picked up both Based On A True Story (airing in December/New year) and Ted series for Sky Max.

Jump onto live chat and request a refund as I can almost bet my house it wont be coming to Peacock UK. In fact only Bel Air season 2 was the last “new” thing added and that was because it got aired on Sky Max.

Make sure to be signed in and use the ‘How to get in touch’ drop down.

You don’t need an active membership of any kind to check and see what is available on NOW. Have a read of my first post at 1907 last night.

@Dreddles 

Can you tell us what thought process has you describing Sky/NOW as not great, when it seems to be the Independent, printing wildly wrong information without fact checking, that is not great here?

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.
