Jacqueline 🏴 (@mrsjaclong) reportedIs there an issue with @EE television and @NOW my premium channels are down and I can't get into the app? #EE #nowtv

Neil Hewitt (@neilhewitt) reportedI have used many streaming services, and I think in terms of quality, NowTV is among the worst. You pay extra for UHD and better audio, and frequently don’t get it even on current content. I watched one episode recently where the audio was screwed up.
-
Emina (@eminahadzic73) reported@theodora335 Has this been confirmed for Kenan's series?! Halef could have a problem with increasing ratings, because they divided the fans at the start. And NowTv cancels series quickly if they don't meet expectations... At the end of last season, they only had HS left...

ELISA FELISA (@felisa_elisa) reported@CelticSky28 @skytv @NOWTV I won’t be able to wait tbh! I didn’t want to stream cos I’ve gotten viruses off of those kind of sites before. So im very happy to have a whole day of heated rivalry! Might take the day off work.

The Blaydon Magpie (@BlaydonMagpie) reportedAnd before anyone from NowTV says "check your connection", its not the 1gb internet line, its literally your **** service. I wouldn't get a nowtv page saying "our technicians are looking in to the issue" on screen, if it was my internet...

Ai Lord Elvo🐜 (@theokhumoitsile) reported@dumilaiweman Exactly. Fix Btv2 into a real content engine or fully commit to NowTV as Botswana’s digital future. Right now, we have weak broadcasting and a substandard streaming platform. Digital audiences won’t tolerate poor UX or half-hearted execution. With the "best" tools allegedly.

Camilla Morgan (@camillamorgan) reported@NOWTV I joined the non-flexible membership in error and tried to cancel it immediately. I sent an email to your customer service but have not heard back.

Debbie Blackman #ManifestSpinOff (@DebbieBlackma14) reported@chefarchiepie @NOW @NOWTV It really is frustrating when they won't or can't help you. We're paying a subscription for a shows I can't watch as no subtitles so what's the point. And when you ask for help they ignore you

Dom (@Dommm1996) reportedWhy do streaming services have their audio adjusted so low? If I’m watching YouTube I have to set my tv volume to 20 or its blaring, yet on nowtv, Netflix, Amazon I set it to max 100 and it’s still low, having to buy speakers when they aren’t the problem clearly

D. (@TheRightDan) reported@NOWTV @WTA @atptour Watched the first set of the men’s final last night. Sat down this evening after a long day’s work to watch the rest & it’s no longer available. Replaced by a ‘highlights’ version. Honestly, I’m astounded by just how awful this TV service is. Our beautiful sport ruined.

Ben Kentish (@BenKentish) reportedAnyone else had major issues with colour on @NOWTV when watching sport? Feel like I’m watching the football in greyscale!
-
Cat Jackson 💙 (@catjackson86) reportedThe utter incompetence of @NOWTV broadband who can't even get their own phones to work, let alone my internet. They're run by Sky but can't match a Sky deal and can't answer what happens to my phone number and contract if copper wires stop while i'm in a contract with them...
