  • MattX1971 Matt (@MattX1971) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @NOWTV Yes they said there was no known issues when as clear as day there was. And yes, when I attempted to start watching the game i could login but not stream it. You can see by the screen shot I sent loads of people had problems.

  • GUYPRESS Guy Press (@GUYPRESS) reported from Chalfont Saint Peter, England

    @NOWTV not working again?!? #btinternetsortitout #IHateSuzie

  • juicyjamieson Bee Thalia 🐝🏍️🏊🏼🏖️☠️ (@juicyjamieson) reported from London, England

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

  • aaron_jolley Aaron Conor Jolley (@aaron_jolley) reported from Kensington, England

    @NOW is the worst service I have had ever. I live in zone 1 central London and I purchased it for @lionsofficial tour. I have yet to watch a game in the crystal clear view I had hoped for. 👎👎👎🤬 #nowtv and yes I have done all your troubleshooting, and it’s still ****

  • CostaLuis5 Luis Costa (@CostaLuis5) reported from Farnham Royal, England

    @NOWTV There are serious technical issues to renew payment details in their website. Online help is very close to useless, and phone customer services only deals with broadband enquiries. A total disgrace !

  • aaron_jolley Aaron Conor Jolley (@aaron_jolley) reported from Kensington, England

    @NOWHelpTeam Not sure what you mean. The mobile data on my phone is linked to another network? My issue is the Nowtv Hub constantly struggles with sports, im watching Premier Sports on Amazon prime through my tv now - The picture quality is poor and the signal falls out consistently.

  • AnnaLou88 Anna 💃🏻 (@AnnaLou88) reported from London, England

    @NOWTV Hi, are you having issues at the moment? I am unable to sign into my online account to change a subscription. Thanks.

  • veetmaya LeaseholdJail 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@veetmaya) reported from Camden Town, England

    @NOWTV why do I keep getting the same error code ?

  • ChrisTheDJ Chris KEEP YOUR MASK ON Merriman (@ChrisTheDJ) reported from London, England

    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

  • CostaLuis5 Luis Costa (@CostaLuis5) reported from Farnham Royal, England

    @NOWTV @theheauxmeaux Update of card payment details in the website doesn’t work. Tried it 20 times. Tried to call NowTv as well, but they only deal with broadband calls on the phone. In the end I missed the sports event I wanted to watch, because of this company’s terrible customer service !!

  • CCsucksatGolf CC (@CCsucksatGolf) reported from Camden Town, England

    Its incredible that NowTV charges you £60 a year for ‘boost’ which means you can watch in HD. £60 extra for what should be the base minimum quality a consumer would expect. And by incredible, I mean an absolute disgrace

  • PVPCatford Peter Faiers (@PVPCatford) reported from London, England

    @NOWTV I have been been getting an unable to load sign in, please try again later for 3 weeks. I’ve tried multiple browsers and reset password. Please help!

  • 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.

  • aaron_jolley Aaron Conor Jolley (@aaron_jolley) reported from Kensington, England

    @NOWHelpTeam is once again glitchy. I purchased this service to watch the @lionsofficial tour and I have yet to watch a game in focus. It’s a blurry mess, I have done all your trouble shooting and it’s clear that your service is just not good 👎👎 #nowtv

  • Noah89334940 Chicken Toaster 🇬🇧 (@Noah89334940) reported from Royal Kensington and Chelsea, England

    @NOWTV I don’t know why I pay for nowtv you can’t even watching anything when you go out! The quality just drops and you can’t see anything even if you got 5G wouldn’t recommend them to anyone. Appalling

  • Pankaj16789 Pankaj Gupta (@Pankaj16789) reported from London, England

    @NOWTV @NOWTV_It please help to get this fix.

  • CostaLuis5 Luis Costa (@CostaLuis5) reported from Farnham Royal, England

    @NOWTV Update of card payment details in the website doesn’t work. Horrible customer service. The worst I have seen in years !

  • jonplatt89 Jon Platt (@jonplatt89) reported from Hillingdon, England

    Can you watch Sky Sports Cricket Red Button on NowTV? Can't work out it i'm just being dumb.

  • 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?

  • NikkiDarke Nikki Darke 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏳️‍🌈 (@NikkiDarke) reported from Paddington, England

    @nowtvhelp 9.4.3 build 4079-56 This one is the worst one. They are all the same stick so I guess the same software version. Only happens when watching things through NowTV not any other apps.

    god it'd be cool if NowTV's video player that it insists on you watching all their content on wasn't such dogshit quality

  • reynlord craig reynolds (unofficial) (@reynlord) reported

    got @nowtv broadband ‘installed’ on monday, they’ve taken the money out of my account and it’s never worked, can’t get through to customer service. anyone work there and can help me out before i move to a cabin in the woods?

  • EmpyGee Mark Gray (@EmpyGee) reported

    @HLTCO NowTV offered £17.99 pm for 6 months, Dec 22 to June 23, when I tried getting rid of Sky Sports. Amazon Prime show 22 games over two banks of days. So 2 mths per season max. BT is expensive and worst value. But all three can be switched off for the summer months.

  • Geekster67 Dominic Williams (@Geekster67) reported

    So, I need the help of my interweb friends. I have a major issue with @NOWTV and need to find a contact phone number for their customer support. So far, my efforts have been fruitless. Online chat is useless also. Can anyone possibly help?

  • TGxwiggle MrxWiggle (@TGxwiggle) reported

    @NOWTV_It @PlayStation hey fix the dam nowTv app its ****. Paying 10 pound a month for a shut video player. Sort it out mate

  • DanielTX51 Daniel Harman (@DanielTX51) reported

    @whitneysvision Same difference. I have an issue with how washed out the blacks look on sky/nowtv GoT was a nightmare to watch. Is that still an issue?

  • dragoncino67 Fabrizio Vita (@dragoncino67) reported

    @AustralianOpen It’s awful that Nowtv is not transmitting the Highlander in action! Nowtv shame on you!

  • SheldonTarpey Sheldon L. Tarpey (@SheldonTarpey) reported

    @CraigWhite16 @NOWTV_It Bizarrely I just checked on my account and it said I couldn't watch it because I need the sports description! I've always had issues with NowTV's UX but it's been particularly bad lately.

  • pedrobanham PistolB (@pedrobanham) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam Thanks, but it’s now been 20h. Longest outage I’ve ever experienced, and no detail about the fault or outward comms. NowTV has my details, why is there no proactive updates?

  • squaresha saoirse (@squaresha) reported

    trying to peacefully watch the last of us and NowTV is truly the worst tv app ever on par with the RTE Player I’d say
