⚽️Lethal Brizzle⚽️ (@DavidLaney) reported from Bolton, England@NOWTV When attempting a “reset” on my NowTV stick, I am getting beyond the internet password only to be told I need to check my hdmi cable connection. There is no problem with that. Solution please?
-
Dawn Hickey (@missdawniehick) reported from Stubbins, EnglandSubtitles: I have used many online streaming platforms to waste time during lockdown. @BBCiPlayer @NetflixUK @PrimeVideo @disneyplus @ITV and by far the worst most insaccessible and most unhelpful of them all is @NOWTV @nowtvhelp. The subtitles are incomplete, broken, freezing
-
chris dempster (@DJ_Chris_Dee) reported from Hoghton, England@NOWTV Any idea as to why I keep getting a PL-0 error message on my Xbox one S? I’ve removed then re-installed the app, cleared the cache and checked the location and dns status-all good! Can’t watch movies and it seems I’m not the only one??

Sophiemay 🐝 (@sophiemaybird_) reported from Salford, EnglandI’m not usually this type of person however @NOWTV / @nowtvhelp and @OpenreachHelp screwed me over with my broadband due to an issue with the exchange nearby - but failed to notify me. It’s been almost 3 days since I found out and haven’t had a message from them.

Sophiemay 🐝 (@sophiemaybird_) reported from Salford, EnglandI’ve never, ever experienced anything like the service I’ve received with @NOWTV / @nowtvhelp - the sheer lack of customer care and the way my issue has been handled has been so shockingly bad I literally fail to believe a word they tell me.

-
Josh Halliday (@JoshHalliday) reported from Manchester, England@NOWTV @nowtvhelp Please can you urgently fix the buffering issues? Not the first time it’s happened - usually during an England game. Not worth the money we’re paying for this.

Raymond Dovetail (@GrahamDavies01) reportedFeeling let down bought a Nowtv stick in a Cex shop, 'cos a deal with Sky TV included all Sky Movies. Plug in, enter code. Nowhere to enter code, 1 hour via Indian help no connection. Returned stick today, very poor customer service and misleading people into getting a bargain!
-
Neil Hewitt (@neilhewitt) reportedI have used many streaming services, and I think in terms of quality, NowTV is among the worst. You pay extra for UHD and better audio, and frequently don’t get it even on current content. I watched one episode recently where the audio was screwed up.
