Re: NOW TV Activate Account email unrecognised

Hi all,

I am having the same problem when I try to activate my now account (included in a new BT TV and fibre package).

I have called BT a few times over the last few days, but they haven't solved the problem yet.

I signed up for the service using a Gmail account, the same I use for my bt account and for Netflix. Netflix already send me an email to switch my account to BT, but the activation of now doesn't work..

It is very frustrating, my service activation was supposed to be on the 23rd Feb, but I understand that now online should have been worked straight away when I signed up (17th Feb). My order still shows as open and apparently that's the problem.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks, Julio

Hi @JulioP and welcome to our community.

Sorry you're having problems activating your Now TV. Have you tried using a different email as @DanielS mentioned previously?

Cheers

David

I am using the email address that I used to sign up for BT TV service. I don't really want to use an alternative email address when this is a systems issue on the BT side.

Is there anything that you guys can do to fix the problem? I have been told the order needs to be completed.

Thanks, Julio

I've got a text from BT today asking me to call.

When I call they say there is a problem with my order, and I was like, I already raised that with you more than a week ago and you haven't done anything about it despite me calling for updates every day.

Honestly this is agony, how can this be so bad?

What do they need to do to sign me up for NOW? I thought it should be something quick..
