    We've had nothing but trouble with our NowTV wifi and now it's frustrating

    @DaddyMightyZim Shame for them. The Netflix algorithm is still a work of art, but in a way no-one will ever notice. Prime is a mess, but not as much as NowTV. It's expensive, not very compatible, and it deleted my entire Watch List for no reason. I don't see much on Apple TV I want.

    @NOW hi, a friend of mine has a fault on her landline. Nowtv will not recognise or accept her email address when she tries to sign in to her account. Please advise as this is causing distress. Thank you.

  • CardellaDelaney Cardella Delaney (@CardellaDelaney) reported

    @bt_uk Internet down for 2days,can't work. I'm with NOWTV. But this is a BT fault!! Compensation please! & Fix it ASAP!!!!

  • AntJack81 ToneJack (@AntJack81) reported

    Listen @NOWTV, I like Formula 1 and while I'm aware it's got its own ethical issues, I'm not paying £34 a month to subsidise the absolute morality cesspit that is Premier League football. A special offer is any that doesn't include football and anything that does... isn't.

  • SharonF79953125 Sharon Fowler (@SharonF79953125) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam hi could you advise me-my friend's landline has no dialling tone and she cannot sign in to nowtv as her email address isn't being accepted. Th8s is causing her a lot of distress. Thank you.

  • jonnopm john morshead (@jonnopm) reported

    @skytv When your NowTV sports package is so expensive, do you feel comfortable outputting 720p quality and charging £3 extra for HD ( no way near) quality? Just watched a match on Amazon Prime, and it puts yours to shame. At that cost, 4K should be expected.

  • garius John Bull (@garius) reported

    @NOWTV You can't even PRETEND you have a line issue to get round this. Because they force you to do a line test. At which point it tells you to (in essence) go away as your line is fine. It's a spectacular bit of chatbot shenanigans.

    @NOWHelpTeam Your self service checker is awful, it originally claimed the internet appeared slow but the speeds normal (33Mbit down), it then claimed the issue was within the house yet nothing has changed in the house and I even tried the other NowTV router. Same issue via master socket.
