Manny0218p I appreciate you posting on our Community Forums. This article can help with adding/removing NOW TV, but does not show a required purchase pin to manage subscriptions. Was this a parental setting that was set up on the box by chance?

Parental PIN and Purchase PIN have been setup in all my boxes.  When you try Every Series,  channel Add on, Or buy movies,

Xfinity window pops up to put a Purchase PIN that was enabled by the user. When you click on NOWTV section to subscribe, it does not ask for the Purchase PIN and allows anyone to activate it and bypass the Flex box PIN requirement.
