  • jkn600 Insert Name Here (@jkn600) reported

    Was considering a @NOWTV subscription, but the fact that 720p is the maximum quality for PC is an instant put off. The fact that 720 is still in your vocabulary as a streaming service limit in 2022 is beyond me

  • trevordobie Trevor Dobie (@trevordobie) reported

    I've been reading about VOIP telephony replacing our landline battery powered system. What happens if there is a major power outage. Do we lose all communication?#openreach #NowTV

  • HHakanY Dr.H. Hakan Yıldırım (@HHakanY) reported

    @nowtv fed up with internet problem 😡

  • linux_bb Scott (@linux_bb) reported

    Weirdly it looks like Apple TV 4K is supposed to pause , it doesn’t work. And now since I was watching with my nowtv box I cannot watch on Apple TV as I am “watching tv on too many devices” I have powered the other box off and still get error, are you trying to annoy customers ??

  • linux_bb Scott (@linux_bb) reported

    @NOW Ok I give up, which devices can you actually pause live streaming on Nowtv ? Seems like you cannot on Apple TV 4K, you can on the old nowtv black boxes, but you don’t sell those anymore, can you on any of the new Roku boxes ? Docs are terrible for this …..

    @NOWTV why is you Apple TV app so awful. Poor performance and awfully UI. I want a big button that just says watch F1

  • thebrainymac Rebecca McDonald (@thebrainymac) reported

    @SamAychG I have a nowtv login you can use if you want

  • dubndoobs420 Edward Green (@dubndoobs420) reported

    @HughesDirect @SonyUK Just found out my mothers NowTV box broke over a year ago, she has been watching terestrial TV only since then. This would make an awesome present and me her favourite son again......Please help me get one over on my brother.

  • RhYnoECfnW Michael Saunders (@RhYnoECfnW) reported

    @NOWTV's router is terrible. The WiFi is awful, can't reach upstairs in our relatively small house. And only two wired ethernet ports too.

  • RaychieC Rachel Clarke (@RaychieC) reported

    Help! I’m in Belgium and wanting to watch the @F1 quali & race but my NowTV won’t work over here. How else can I watch the #ausgp ? #AustralianGP #Formula1

  • richajam James Richardson (@richajam) reported

    @NOW longstanding bug on now roku, which it would be super to fix. Switching on an audio processor during a film will result in incorrect interpretation of display device or something, meaning picture only on 1/4 of screen. Have to restart app. Only nowtv has this behaviour...

  • Katy_mo Katy ♓🌙 (@Katy_mo) reported

    @SausageHogger @GMB @MartinSLewis Although I will say if most of your tv watching is via a PC or laptop, NowTV isn't worth the price. Their launcher is awful with really limited picture quality (they're aware of it and haven't done anything to sort it).

  • sobsxo Julius Pepperwood 👽 (@sobsxo) reported

    @jaef2001 @NOWHelpTeam Omg literally nowtv is the worst. They have the worst system and worst customer service!

  • LSully7 Lee Sullivan (@LSully7) reported

    Anyone with a Sony Android TV have any other playback issues with like Disney+/NowTV etc? Every so often during an episode/movie, it’s kind of just stutters for a second or two. All of the apps are up to date as it the TV.

  • PaulAnthonyLutz Paul Anthony (@PaulAnthonyLutz) reported

    @NOWTV @now For the love of god, please sort your service out. Tonight's England game picture quality was either unwatchable or 1940s style. Sheesh.

  • ChrisSleven Chris Sleven #DefundTheBBC (@ChrisSleven) reported

    @BillyNineLives @JuneMoultrie I pay £22 per month for about 60Mbps (NowTV Broadband) and have no problems, I work from home on a laptop and have Apple TV streaming and there are phones and tablets on all the time.

  • AndrewMcGettig1 Andrew McGettigan (@AndrewMcGettig1) reported

    @NOWTV I cannot use my sport log in can you help please.

  • MyExIsAPrick NatashaKaleyy ♡ (@MyExIsAPrick) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam Hi, the Live chat team couldn’t help. They said it’s an iTunes issue and iTunes say it’s a NowTV issue..

  • splatploitation Stephen Cooper (@splatploitation) reported

    Think @NOWTV must have the worse customer service I've ever come across. Instead of trying to help me they kept trying to sell me their offers. Disgraceful.

  • wheelygay comunista dei gamberi (@wheelygay) reported

    anyone know why my internet goes off when I plug my landline in? technical people please help so I don’t spend an hour on hold to nowtv

  • ButtonDown16 Button Down (@ButtonDown16) reported

    @Robert85733781 @SPFLWatch Sky Sports via nowtv and their website lags and goes blurry for 5 seconds at a time 10 times a game too. Never had any issues with dazn or prime though tbf.

  • TerryMeehan1234 Terry Meehan (@TerryMeehan1234) reported

    @NOWTV Refund. NowTV not working.

  • finaIghost abbie (@finaIghost) reported

    @wlwlauriestrode my nowtv free subscription ended like last month HELP

  • penwing penwing #Resist #FuckThisGovernment (@penwing) reported

    Righteo Twitter, you have just over half an hour to help me decide what to watch tonight, NT at Home’s Amazon Channel seems broken so it’s Disney+, AppleTV, NowTV or booting my my computer… things that spring to mind immediately are Hamilton and Come From Away

  • Atomheart1972 Glyn 🇬🇧 (@Atomheart1972) reported

    @NOW My 3 month discount ran out and NowTV deliberately did not mention this. They have now taken full price and I am looking into my legal situation to get my money back. What a nasty underhand company NowTv is. They don't even read your direct messages for help.

  • LeenaG Leena Gupte (@LeenaG) reported

    I think that @NOWTV has the worst user interface and user experience that I have ever seen in my life, and I've had to apply for a Visa from the Indian Consulate!

  • RobynJankel Robyn Jankel (@RobynJankel) reported

    My evenings on this trip are essentially me in a hotel/Airbnb watching multiple episodes of some trash so please for the love of God send me your drama suggestions that I may not rot my brain. Anything on Netflix, NowTV, Amazon Prime & Disney+ because apparently I have a problem.

  • shaunmstone Shaun Michael Stone (@shaunmstone) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam hey getting a Unknown Page Error on the NOWTV TV app... Missing the game.

  • goodguyjas Jason Needs (@goodguyjas) reported

    @NOWTV the now tv app on iPhone is regularly getting stuck buffering and only restarting my phone clears it. Not sure if it is you guys or IOS15x as not had issues before. Any known problems? Removed and reinstalled app.

  • buuug3quads el (@buuug3quads) reported

    @mooonweaver I’ve been having this problem 😭 I think we would have to pirate it rn but I guess it’d air on nowtv or something at some point, I know other hbo shows are on there
