    @gctsby This is the one I've gone with. As I said, the NowTV option doesn't work for me. I'm impressed at how easy they've made it and how realistic they are about aggregating it to 1 channel on a 31 day roll basis. These people know this "Tour" won't go the distance.

  • Artemisapphire Tansy Kelly Robson (@Artemisapphire) reported

    It's 1am and NowTV is asking me do I want the next Episode of the Rookie, and I have work tomorrow... but I won't sleep because and the read through is tomorrow evening and I don't think my nervous can take it. (Selects next episode because Nathan Fillion will calm me down)

    @NOWTV I'm having trouble using your online feedback. Any chance of some help please?

  • twigsays Phil Graham (@twigsays) reported

    Hey customer, since you're already paying a tenner a month, why not upgrade for an extra £3 so you don't get **** streaming quality and the ads we suddenly decided to start throwing at you without warning every 15 minutes? Screw you @NOWTV I'm done.

  • ElainePower_ Elaine Power (@ElainePower_) reported

    Hey @NOW_Ireland, I have a nowtv stick for my TV and for the past month the inbuilt @RTEplayer app keeps crashing. Could ye fix it?

  • captainwonkish Captain Wonkish (@captainwonkish) reported

    Ah lovely. First @nowtv release an utterly terrible and barely usable Apple TV app, then they whack up the monthly price, and now they’ve added ads to seemingly everything I watch. Wow you really do want me to cancel, don’t you? Hey @disneyplus you don’t have ads, right?
