    @BTSopenreach Hi, My name is Neil clutterbuck and I have been waiting for an Internet connection since the 9th September through NOWTV. I had a new job to start on the 9th of September and I was promised a connection by then. Since then I haven't had any update. Can you help me.

    @NOWHelpTeam Hi KH. No. The frustrating thing about this issue is everyone I have spoken to at Sky/NowTV treats it as if it could be coming from 'userland' IE something odd at my end. We've clearly demonstrated inconsistency in your own systems here. Something about my account is *broken*.

    @toobbroadband Call you guys for you to say there's no issue your end & it's NowTV? I know NowTV is pants but didn't have 4 buffer screens in the space of 2 mins before we switched to Toob! We have called, we had no help given.

    @UHD4k Main benefit is 4K sky on a rolling contract, albeit with slight cost bump for that flexibility - I dont think that has been done before cos NowTV was poor quality....

  • NPCHero NPC Hero (@NPCHero) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam I primarily watch NowTV on my PC. I just tried the app on my phone whilst connecting to the same network and it worked fine. I'm assuming this is an issue specific to the app

    @NOWTV hey I’m paying for boost and it doesn’t even work!!

  • gunjanarora001 Gunjan Arora (@gunjanarora001) reported

    @NOWTV_It @NOWTV very frequent broadband disconnections and speed issues in reading for the last month or so

    @JensonButton Awful news - we were hoping for F1TV like the rest of the world but now we have to hit the BSkyB paywall which is 5x as much (NowTV) Or a Sky Contract which is 10x more

    @NOWTV my Internet is down for the umpteenth time this week, and I'm totally fed up with it! My partner and I rely on our Internet service for so much, and yet we get in and can access nothing, again! I'm so sick of your terrible service!
