    @NOWTV It has been over a week since problems with broadband were reported - "AF-IE-1023714563 Broadband Problems in Baillieston" on 30/11. Still no update and service still not to working. I am finding it very hard to speak to someone about this and get an update. Please help.

    @elliexcos @TalkTalk @NOWTV do free new installs, might work out cheaper overall if you need a socket installing. But normally it will tell during the order process.

  • KingBradd BradKing (@KingBradd) reported

    @NOWTV why is it so hard to get into contact with you? Your site won't let me set up my account and I can't ring anyone to get help with our broadband setup. And before you ask, no, none of the FAQ's help

  • stevembudd Steve Budd (@stevembudd) reported

    @canva Probably the least difficult work around is tethering your phone internet to your laptop. Not ideal but easier than getting in contact with NowTV!
