    @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.

    @NOWTV how can I access the Bee Gees doc ‘How can you mend a broken heart?’ by @LeDoctor on the Now TV box search? I can access it and download on the app but not on the Now TV Box! Thanks

    @NOWTV I'm trying to order broadband via your website, but can't get past making an appointment for an engineer, the page just goes blank. Is anybody else having this issue? Thanks

    @VodafoneGroup @VodafoneUK Please explain your despicable service?! Despite contacting you on numerous occasisons over a period of 3 months, my problem still hasn’t been resolved! You are charging and taking money from my account for no service. I moved to @NOWTV in September!

  • PaulMWhite75 PaulMWhite75 (@PaulMWhite75) reported

    @NOWTV Is there an issue with service in #DL14? Our internet is down on a NYE where everyone has to stay home. Your phone lines are closed. Perfect end to 2020 for your customers in the area?

  • LightfootRyha Ryha Lightfoot (@LightfootRyha) reported

    @NOWTV hey, I use your platform-a little too-frequently, but the layout is awful and difficult to navigate, and the subtitles NEVER stay on. What gives?

  • mrhar10 Mike (@mrhar10) reported

    My top 3 things I hate most about the new interface; 1) Really poor contrast of titles.... Small grey text on random backgrounds; 2) The most useful functions and now hardest to get at; 3) Broken voice search feature.... What's the whole leaving nowtv in 5 seconds business about;

  • AymeeBee_x Amy Bradley. (@AymeeBee_x) reported

    Had one problem after another with transferring internet to Now Broadband. Was supposed to go live on 23rd dec and still isn’t live now. Had a problem connecting & had to wait for open reach to sort it, now that’s fixed it’s saying there’s a problem in my home... @NOWTV

  • martintomlinson Martin Tomlinson (@martintomlinson) reported

    Anyone thinking of switching broadband, AVOID @NOWTV and @SkyUK. My parents switched on the 19th December, since then their number doesn't accept calls. I've called nowtv most days since, spent hours on the phone. They closed a complaint with no action and it still doesn't work.

  • wilbur_munch Wilbur Munch (@wilbur_munch) reported

    @ImGoingFeral @nowtvhelp @NOWTV They haven't assisted in anyways, live chat can't answer questions, social media can't access accounts and there is no number to phone, making promises they don't keep. Whilst offering no help to resolve.

    @NOWTV I've tried 3 cards to sign up for the service, yet none of them work. It keeps coming up with an error on signup, despite charging 10p (active card check, I presume). I tried the same card again, yet the error keeps popping up. What's wrong with your service, please?
