    @NOWTV shame the Roku powered Now TV sticks keep not working I like Now TV but it would be nice not to have to spend 20 minutes fault finding when I just want to watch GMTV in a morning while I get ready #fail

    @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?

    The @NOWTV app has stopped working on my @LGUK smartTV, getting error PL-0 whenever I try to play content. Any solution other than resetting the TV to factory settings (NOT doing that as I'll lose my other app data)? Tried reinstalling app, no fix.

    @NOWTV I can't find the live chat link anywhere, it just keeps bringing me back to your help page. Have you got a direct link? 🤔

    @nowtvhelp @NOWTV Hi, I bought a Sky Sports monthly pass in the early hours but it seems like I've been charged twice. Any help?

    @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

    @scog27 @NOWTV @SkyFootball I totally get the frustration! It's frustrating when the tech fails during crucial moments. Streaming should be seamless—especially for major matches. Have you noticed if it's a specific time or game when the quality dips?

  • scog27
    Stuart (@scog27) reported

    @kidtsang @NOWTV @SkyFootball It will just randomly buffer throughout the game.

  • CliveRoper
    Clive Roper (@CliveRoper) reported

    @NOWTV Nowtv has stopped working on my Hisense smart tv and Amazon Firestick today. What is the issue? Do I need to cancel subscriptions or get a refund??

  • JayThePhoenix91
    JayThePhoenix (@JayThePhoenix91) reported

    @NOWTV @NOW @NOWHelpTeam ive been trying to ask a question and your 'help pages' and chatbot are useless. Is there anyone available that can help me?

    @NOWTV , my app has disappeared from my home screen. Please can you help?

  • David_Aspinall
    David Aspinall (@David_Aspinall) reported

    @CliveRoper @NOWTV it has stopped working on 2 LG tvs and an amazon firestick for me, but working fine on my phone. Funnily enough the tv/stick apps had all been logged out (and updated maybe?) and I needed to log in first, then the error.

  • WorbleTweets
    Ben (@WorbleTweets) reported

    Why is there no way to limit the playback quality in @NOW??? I live in the middle of nowhere so my internet isn't great so i'd like to lower the quality of streaming so it doesn't eat my bandwidth. Such a weird oversight considering every streaming service has this option. #NOWTV

    Andrew Westgarth (@apwestgarth) reported

    Really not impressed with the poor quality of @skytv stream when watching @SkySportsPL constant buffering and lag every time i’m watching the match, and I have the top broadband package. NowTV was far more stable and reliable!
