    @NOWTV awful service from you! You've messed me about for two weeks getting an engineer out to my #broadband and you still can't come for another 2 weeks despite the fact I'm a critical worker with no connection #cancelled and gone back to @virginmedia #usless

  • sophiemaybird_ Sophiemay 🐝 (@sophiemaybird_) reported from Salford, England

    I’ve never, ever experienced anything like the service I’ve received with @NOWTV / @nowtvhelp - the sheer lack of customer care and the way my issue has been handled has been so shockingly bad I literally fail to believe a word they tell me.

  • LubeckRoss lubeck ross (@LubeckRoss) reported from Manchester, England

    @jokerdaddy23 if you've not done it already, if you type in NOWTV cinema pass free trial into Google, you can get a 7 day free trial. I'm gonna buy a month pass for £12 anyway hoping it'll help but letting you know there's an option for those who are low on funds etc. #SnyderCut

  • forzaDane Forza Dane (@forzaDane) reported from Salford, England

    @AldoH35 @BBCiPlayer @NOWTV I have an amazon fire stick in another room and it worked on that. So guess it’s a @NOWTV problem

  • sophiemaybird_ Sophiemay 🐝 (@sophiemaybird_) reported from Salford, England

    I’m not usually this type of person however @NOWTV / @nowtvhelp and @OpenreachHelp screwed me over with my broadband due to an issue with the exchange nearby - but failed to notify me. It’s been almost 3 days since I found out and haven’t had a message from them.

  • Nomio1984 Naomi Jewitt (@Nomio1984) reported from Oldham, England

    @NOW Hi, we have a nowtv box (wired wifi connection) and it’s still not working this morning

  • DavidLaney ⚽️Lethal Brizzle⚽️ (@DavidLaney) reported from Bolton, England

    @NOWTV When attempting a “reset” on my NowTV stick, I am getting beyond the internet password only to be told I need to check my hdmi cable connection. There is no problem with that. Solution please?

  • yourmancman1 KoM Cazzer (@yourmancman1) reported from Salford, England

    Trying to watch prog on @NOWTV_It / any idea why it’s not working ? #nowtv

  • missdawniehick Dawn Hickey (@missdawniehick) reported from Stubbins, England

    Subtitles: I have used many online streaming platforms to waste time during lockdown. @BBCiPlayer @NetflixUK @PrimeVideo @disneyplus @ITV and by far the worst most insaccessible and most unhelpful of them all is @NOWTV @nowtvhelp. The subtitles are incomplete, broken, freezing

  • jxnluc 🤓 (@jxnluc) reported from Middleton, England

    The worst ******* thing when you’re just starting to watch a show on now tv and they remove it, happens all the ******* time @NOWTV

  • antoniapoppy Antonia Lallement (@antoniapoppy) reported from Stockport, England

    Hey @NOWTV what’s your problem? Why do you hate your users? Just play the next bloody episode

  • JoshHalliday Josh Halliday (@JoshHalliday) reported from Manchester, England

    @NOWTV @nowtvhelp Please can you urgently fix the buffering issues? Not the first time it’s happened - usually during an England game. Not worth the money we’re paying for this.

  • Rickyyyy94 Rick Richardson (@Rickyyyy94) reported

    @NOWTV your streaming service for high demand games is so poor. Whenever there is more than 3 people watching a game, the quality of the stream is so s#!t

  • sailorchoon jfeen forever ♥️ (@sailorchoon) reported

    nowTV is the worst the app is horrendous, ads and it’s super expensive

  • eviewonder22 Eviewonder22 (@eviewonder22) reported

    @NOWTV just taken great pleasure in cancelling my membership after an appalling experience with your customer service. Awful company, awful service - totally not worth the money.

  • Baldy_Baldy_ Baldy (@Baldy_Baldy_) reported

    @NOW Think how much better it would be in 4K? Instead NowTV are still streaming in a quality that was available in the last century, 24 years ago! And then have the audacity to charge extra for a quality first released 15 years ago! Sort it out.

  • leon13 Leon Bienek (@leon13) reported

    @NOWTV I'm unable to log in, or reset my password. Can you help please 🙏

  • MarkSkinner_ Mark Skinner (@MarkSkinner_) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam Yes, the program causing the error is NowTV's player… But in terms of other software, no, I've not found the one that yours is confused about…

  • stuartreeves Stuart Reeves (@stuartreeves) reported

    The @BLAZETVUK app is hands down, the worst TV app out there, and that include @NOWTV. The wrong shows are linked with the wrong listing, shows cut off half way through, utterly amateurish!!

  • MarkSkinner_ Mark Skinner (@MarkSkinner_) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam Is there any plan to fix the Mac nowTV app so that it stops saying I'm using screen recording software, when I'm not? It's completely unwatchable on my Mac at the moment, and the solution you've implemented is ridiculous!

  • TotoMimoTweets Tommy Millar (@TotoMimoTweets) reported

    @NOW I was pretty miffed to realise the NOWTV App caps out at a **2002-grade** 720p, unless you're willing to pay £5 extra a month to go to **2005-grade** 1080p. The REAL kicker? This paid, premium app HAS AD BREAKS. Avoid at all costs. Shambolic quality for the money, folks.
