Fix It 

You'll find below some useful tips if you're having some issues with joining or watching NOW. For all other NOW technical help and support please see the NOW website.

Don’t worry if you can't find your activation email, head to My Account and activate your Membership there. Alternatively, please contact us and our customer service team can help you set up your account. 

 

If your membership activation has failed, this may be due to already having the same NOW Membership with a different provider. To successfully activate a NOW Membership with TalkTalk, you'll need to cancel your existing membership first and wait for your NOW billing cycle to end, and then add the NOW Membership with TalkTalk.  

If your activation has failed for another reason, contact us and we'll be able to help you find a solution. 

 

When you watch NOW, the video stream isn’t sent to your device in one go. Instead, it’s sent in bite-size ‘packets’. If there’s a delay – often caused by a slow network – your show pauses while it waits for the next packet. This is known as buffering. For more information please see Fix slow broadband speeds.

 

If you're trying to watch on more than 2 devices at once you'll see an error message such as, 'You're trying to stream on too many devices at once'. You'll need to stop watching on one of the other devices to allow you to watch on the new device.
