  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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 !

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

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

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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 ****

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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 !

  • 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 @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 !!

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • 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

    @NOWTV Okay, done that. What next? Still having the same issue

  • partly_bearded Dan, but wearing a mask (@partly_bearded) reported

    @Lutzoid Yep. Game Pass on PC is ******* awful and now they're dragging others into it. It's like a repeat of Netflix vs Prime vs NowTV again, with the NowTV equivalent sadly controlling the shots.

  • katebadz Kate badz (@katebadz) reported

    @NOWTV hey, I’ve been trying to update my payment details for a while now and it’s still saying they’re not correct...but they are 😩 help please!

  • ChrisRedpath Chris Redpath (@ChrisRedpath) reported

    @SoozUK @NOWTV It's not going to help you much right now, but you can get a nowtv box really cheap so you can stream without using the phone. Roku boxes also support all the other services as well as sky ones. Good luck!

  • KatyHWrites Katy c'mere to me Harrington (@KatyHWrites) reported

    @NOWTV cool, but then not much point in asking me to DM and give you all the details when if there's nothing you can do to help get this fixed, y'know?? I just don't think #NowTV give a toss about actually helping their customers. Ta.

  • cuIIenswhore eli🎃haunting woosh (@cuIIenswhore) reported

    @nowtvhelp @NOWTV hi i just moved in to a new flat and the wires to the master socket are damaged and we need an engineer. I’ve been trying to live chat but it keeps linking me to articles. could you help?

  • bettyford05 Betty (@bettyford05) reported

    @NOWTV your help page does not resolve my issue. It seems impossible to contact you. I need to speak to a human!

  • CBallHitBallRun Angie (@CBallHitBallRun) reported

    @Bleasedog @NOWTV Have you googled the issue? Last time I had an unfathomable problem it was bc the service was not compatible with my TV and caused problems. It was Disney+ and LG televisions. They just don’t like each other!
