  • 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.

    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

    @NelsonAK13 @toryboypierce @BBCOne I pay for basic sky package, still have to watch ads despite paying for it. I have an occasional NowTV movies subscription. Have to watch ads before films. Both work out significantly more than licence fee with less original shows. with no public service remit.

    @NOWTV why can't i play audio through bluetooth?? I see this has been an issue with Now TV player for years. Why has this not been addressed????

  • inmaterichard Richard C Law (@inmaterichard) reported

    @NOW I have to restart my Apple TV each time I use the NowTV app, otherwise it doesn’t work, is there a fix coming?

  • PositiveLad Tom PositiveLad (@PositiveLad) reported

    Watching RuPaul’s #TheBitchWhoStoleChristmas on NowTV. It’s possibly one of the worst things I’ve ever seen. Ru green-screened into all her scenes. Lipsyncing completely off. Acting that wouldn’t even pass on Grindr. Honestly it’s so bad it’s good, but goes back into bad again.

  • S_Carden Siún Carden (@S_Carden) reported

    @seanbgoneill Roll up, roll up, watch Roman Roy take the piss out of Waystar’s unusable streaming platform. Available only on NowTV

  • theJEG James Guest (@theJEG) reported

    Imo @NOWTV has the worst UX of any app I've ever used. Opening a browser to open an electron app. It's just a horrendous idea. Why it felt it had to be different to every other streaming app is a mystery.

    Treated myself to Sky cinema for a month while I’m here on my Tod over Christmas. Please send me film Recs before I can’t afford the subscription fee cause I work in music 👍🏻 #skycinema #nowtv #film

    @NOWHelpTeam Hi. Twitter says "NOWHelpTeam can't be messaged" ? Problem > Trying to log into NowTV account > forgot password > your email to me to change password never arrives. Made several attempts. Please advise by DM why? Thank you.

    @MattXnVHat I've not watched Eternals yet, I always wait until it's on the Nowtv box. I know, watched the last one today. That's awful. My Mum just tested positive for covid. She's been coughing for the last few days. So Christmas is cancelled, we're in quarantine.

    Real fan of paying £33+3 per month for @NowTV sports pass, over and above Sky broadband, only for it all to crash on kick off.
