    . @NOWTV HELP ME PLS 😭 For about a year I've not been able to update my watch list - every time I try to add to my TV it's not letting me again saying: "sorry we're having trouble updating."

  • sophiemorbey morble (@sophiemorbey) reported from Birmingham, England

    PSA: Now TV are the worst company I’ve ever had the displeasure of coming across. Poor and rude customer service and STILL no working broadband, despite being promised it would be yesterday. @nowtv @nowtvhelp YOU SUCK.

  • ibaird73 Ian Baird (@ibaird73) reported from Birmingham, England

    @nowtv Can’t access my day pass to Sky Sports. Rebooted everything. Other passes are working fine. Others seem to be having issues with @SkySports too! Help!

  • JimFeltham James Feltham (@JimFeltham) reported from Bromsgrove, England

    @NOWTV Was that a penalty? Quality is so terrible I can't tell. #ENGBEL

  • sophiemorbey morble (@sophiemorbey) reported from Birmingham, England

    Within 24 hours of me ringing @virginmedia, we’re up and running with broadband (it’s also dead fast, bonus) 👏🏼 If anyone is considering @NOWTV for internet, PLEASE don’t bother. They are honestly the worst provider I’ve ever come across.

  • sophiemorbey morble (@sophiemorbey) reported from Birmingham, England

    Hey @nowtv @nowtvhelp please give Ferruccio from your call centre a raise!!!!! We didn’t 100% get to the bottom of my issue (shock) but he cheered me up with chats about Animal Crossing and RuPaul’s Drag Race. Top guy - please be my pal x

  • CraigDHoare Craig 🌹 (@CraigDHoare) reported from Birmingham, England

    Pleased I chose to follow Spurs on radio this year and cancel NowTV. The standard of the football has been awful and results misleading #COYS

  • eviewonder22 Eviewonder22 (@eviewonder22) reported

    @NOWTV just taken great pleasure in cancelling my membership after an appalling experience with your customer service. Awful company, awful service - totally not worth the money.

  • zippydjh David H (@zippydjh) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam @danfreemanfan That’s nice I tweeted you twice with an issue that resulted after your latest update and you completely ignored me! We can’t all afford full-fat sky which doesn’t mean that you should ignore your NOWTV customers.
