    I was so wrong about Peacock not coming to the UK - still trying to work out how it plans to coexist as a distinct product with Sky. Most of the launch content is already streaming via #skyq and #nowtv

    @NOWTV Did you not notice the screenshot of live chat NOT WORKING

  • UsAtTheCinema Us @ The Cinema (@UsAtTheCinema) reported from Grays, England

    Anyone have consistent issues with @NOWTV remote connection? No matter what I try! I’ve tried throwing the TV into a landfill site, buying a newTV, resubscribing, howling at the moon 3 times before midnight and sacrificing 12 remote controls and still have the same remote issues

  • Garrardinho Gary Lager (@Garrardinho) reported from London, England

    @nowtvhelp I am currently using the NowTV Player software on PC w/ a HDMI cable to my TV. This works OK but occasionally this freezes and the video & audio go out of sync which wasn't an issue with Chromecast.

  • orla_barry Orla Barry (@orla_barry) reported from London, England

    @nowtvhelp Its still down. I don’t have either Nowtv stick or chromecast? So what’s the issue?

    @ianto63 Ian, thanks for getting back to me and the delay in response. Ian can I ask is it only with nowtv on your TV that is causing this error messages? if this is the case can you please tell me what device on your TV you are using. Thanks

  • DerekHu66372170 DJ (@DerekHu66372170) reported

    @NOWTV The NOWTV app for it is terrible

  • horny1987 James Horn (@horny1987) reported

    @NOWTV No, never changed my email. I am able to log in using the email I used, but then get errors when trying to navigate through the system. The agents tell me I am not registered. I cannot register as your system tells me I alresdy have. I need someone to contact me direct to resolve

  • Robot_Logic Robot Logic (@Robot_Logic) reported

    @LaughablyFree @NOWTV Yeah the menus are ******* embarrassing. I'm not sure how it is on all formats, but on PS4, it just looks awful and is awful. I'm not sure how they think it's acceptable in 2020. Bugger all choice as well, it's bad.

  • NjNjayne Naomi Jayne (@NjNjayne) reported

    @NOWTV having major broadband issues please tell me how I can speak to someone live chat is constantly saying no agent available :-(

  • CrawleyGas Andrew Tyler (@CrawleyGas) reported

    @NOWTV unable to get the help I needed online chat, you charged us £104 for sky sports, we do watch sports, we don't even use now tv. I feel like you have conned us, possibly my 6 year old signed up for a free trial, and when it wasn't cancelled you pulled our pants down. Help

  • Robot_Logic Robot Logic (@Robot_Logic) reported

    @NOWTV Not NOW TV because you've sod all on, so I cancelled after one month. Of course you THEN offered a special deal as I was cancelling, that would have been better than if I hadn't cancelled... Honestly, ******* awful overall, terrible library and a menu that was designed in 2004.

  • pontyboi daniel james lewis (@pontyboi) reported

    @NOWTV my internet has been down for 7 hours! Is there an issue in the Cardiff area?

  • Rachelbashford Rachel Bashford (@Rachelbashford) reported

    Is it even possible to actually get to speak to anyone at #nowtv ihave been having issues since Saturday. They give you passes and I cant activate them because I already have passes why give 3 sports and 3 ent passes if you can only activate 1 then cant continue the set up?

  • JohnRoberts1993 John Roberts (@JohnRoberts1993) reported

    @nowtvhelp having issues with devices on my NowTV account. It is using a new IP address on my device each time I use it so counts as an extra device
