    Trying to contact @NowTV to enquire about their broadband and honestly it’s the worst. Talking to a Robot does not help.

    Is this bloody awful picture quality a @NOWTV scam to get you to pay £13 a day for HD?

  • MrsSherrec Mandy Sheridan (@MrsSherrec) reported from Warrington, England

    @NOWTV thanks to your poor quality streaming, I has to watch the last two minutes of the F1 qualifying through a blurry picture

    @terry_winter @NOWTV 🤔Wonder what's gone wrong, as I've just had a £20/month @Nowtv subscription for the Lions series, paid £3 extra for HD. The stream quality was excellent on PC, Smart TV with Amazon Fire Stick and TalkTalk YouView Box. No issues with all 3 running at the same time. Good luck!

    @NOWTV I’m on my second remote which has also decided to stop working. Speaking to a Webchat agent who is telling me I need to buy a new remote!! I’ve only had Now tv since June and now I’m left with a tv that doesn’t work!!!! What am I supposed to do now!?

  • islandoforder 🐰 (@islandoforder) reported

    @Miriam11180064 Oh no that’s the worst! I’m sorry!! Let’s see I’ve mostly been watching Chinese fantasy on Netflix recently (aka word of honour, the untamed), but also enjoyed French heist show Lupin, and nowtv’s supernatural comedy Wellington Paranormal which is what we do in the shadows vibes

  • William1966a William (@William1966a) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam All three of my NowTv boxes keep saying I am not connected to wifi. I have to restart boxes and then they connect fine. Problem is I need to do this every time I want to watch.

  • Connormcwood Connor Mcgarty-Wood (@Connormcwood) reported

    After almost three months of waiting for broadband finally gets switched on for a day and then cancelled. Paying rent, taking days of work due to @NOWTV @WeAreOpenreach not able to fulfil their obligations @Ofcom

  • SomnolentGiglet Cassandra Stroud (@SomnolentGiglet) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam I have read your help pages and none of it justifies adverts on streaming, it just states the ridiculous charges you have put in place to remove adverts ... just profiteering on your part, bad show @NOWTV

  • rawr_glenn 𝔾𝕝𝕖𝕟𝕟 シ 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@rawr_glenn) reported

    Why would I carry on paying OTT for this awful Sky Broadband & NOWTV Sky Sports when the quality keeps dropping like this … 🙄 @SkyUK

  • DavidOldham4 David Oldham (he/him) (@DavidOldham4) reported

    @JujuliaGrace I am sorry to say I brought the problem up to @NOWTV but they informed me their budget had already been spent so for now they are continuing to advertise on @GBNEWS so I have cancelled my subscription

  • Graydeeus The Death Star (@Graydeeus) reported

    @GWR71 @BritBox_UK Spent years hoping NowTV would fix the pitch correction on their shows (or just play it at their native frame rates) so that the audio wouldn't sound slightly gross and off-pitch on all their US shows. If a service with Sky's budget can't do it, I've little hope for BritBox.

    @NOWHelpTeam For the last 2 days I have been unable to sign into my NowTV account on any platform it just brings up an error message saying (Unable to sign in, please try again later) Can you please advise on how I fix this?
