I've forgotten my Parental or Payment PIN
Your Parental PIN helps you control what younger viewers can watch, while your Payment PIN helps you control who can make purchases using the payment details stored on your account.
Your PINs can only be managed by you, so our advisors won't be able to set or reset them for you – you'll need to do this yourself online.

Are you a BT customer?
These settings are separate from your BT PINs, which you can change through your BT TV box. Head to the BT website to find out how to change BT PINs.
If you’re only watching on your BT TV box, you don’t need a NOW PIN – just use your BT PIN. If you want to watch on other devices, use your NOW Parental PIN settings to control what younger viewers can watch on NOW.
