    @SkySports @SkySportsF1 Why is the live coverage for the F2 and F3 events constantly out of sync on NowTV? (Audio comes through about 1 second before the picture). F1 coverage is always fine, but F2 and F3 always has this issue

    Watching NowTV Top groups of the 70s, cant believe how awful, simpering and wooden some like Dawn, Middle of the Road, Brotherhood of Man etc. were. Absolute slush but some goodies in there as well like Bowie, T Rex etc. #pop #rock

    Well… since NowTV has decided they don’t want to fix the internet issue in my area I guess… hopefully I’ll stream this weekend? Hopefully the outage will end soon Prayge

    @1886_blog Have had both, NowTV gives you the flexibility of no contract, you don't quite get the picture quality and you will be delayed on live tv as it is a streaming service but its an option. I switched to IPTV service at the beginning of the year and haven't looked back. Saved so much

    So, I think NowTV gets the official worst TV app and interface of all time award… 40 mins so far, and not able to watch anything…

    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

    @NOWHelpTeam It is not low quality streaming that is the issue. It is that the 1080p is horrible. Looks freakish and unnatural. And it is Only NOWtv that looks terrible, no other streaming service.

    @NOWTV Using Now via my BT TV and all I'm getting is constant buffering and error codes. My internet speed is fine at 75mb. Do I get a refund 'cos I cannot watch anything ATM 😡
