    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.

    . @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."

    @SkySportsF1 @NOWTV can sort out the intermittent sound issues with the transmission for the F1 please!?! It's annoying

    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

    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.

    NowTV stream for #MNF was awful tonight. Sort it out @NOWTV

  • IanLabour

    @NOWTV I am trying to watch Liverpool V Brentford. Why am I being constantly offered IPL cricket? Can you please sort out the glitch?

    Mark Winter (@MarkWinter02) reported

    @RawnsleyAn86745 @rebzeleanor @SkySports I'm close to agreeing with you. If you removed the word tin pot, I definitely would. No team or match has the automatic right to be on telly. Womens football deserves coverage and the men's match was very prominent on nowtv Both were on telly. No issue really.

  • Nobbyspyles
    Nobby P (@Nobbyspyles) reported

    Now TV down on all platforms. I'm paying for a service that doesn't work. And they removed World War 2 with Tom Hanks, one of the few things worth watching! And ZERO customer service @NOW @NOWHelpTeam #nowtv

    @NOWTV you are on notice, the next time I cannot login using my correct username and password you will have lost a subscriber, get it together

  • cptrelentless
    Chris Collinsberger (@cptrelentless) reported

    @Benleo NOWTv has an even worse Indian call centre, I guarantee it. VM is only the second worst TV co.

    Ai Lord Elvo🐜 (@theokhumoitsile) reported

    @dumilaiweman Exactly. Fix Btv2 into a real content engine or fully commit to NowTV as Botswana’s digital future. Right now, we have weak broadcasting and a substandard streaming platform. Digital audiences won’t tolerate poor UX or half-hearted execution. With the "best" tools allegedly.

    @hayuhelps currently pay for hayu via @NOWTV. It seems to be a weekly occurrence now where shows are missing, episodes are missing and take days to arrive IF AT ALL. New series don't materialise until days later. What is going on and why am I paying for such a terrible service?

  • BlondeTalksSkin
    Gina (@BlondeTalksSkin) reported

    @NOWTV can you please explain why on Tuesday I was able to select Superfast broadband for the property I'm moving to but when I've gone back on today it will only let me choose Full Fibre? I don't want this as I can't wait for an engineer visit because I need broadband for work

    @NOWTV Nowtv has stopped working on my Hisense smart tv and Amazon Firestick today. What is the issue? Do I need to cancel subscriptions or get a refund??
