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.

@DavidDesu @NOWTV @nowtv Is currently unusable on PS4 and in my case unrecoverable when it buffers every 10min! Video streaming is not rocket science......unless you pay for internet Sky Sports. Subscription will be cancelled shortly!

Incredible that I can watch hours of Netflix/Twitch on my internet with no issue but NowTV has buffered and forced me to restart every 5-10 minutes during the #F1 @NOWHelpTeam

Pathetic customer service by @NOW. Post a link to a chat service you wait ages for, then they cut you dead without helping or even giving you contact details for Now Broadband. Your buffering issues are your issues and do not give value for money. #nowtv #nowtvbuffering

@MotchmanHarry @NOWHelpTeam The only good thing about this is you can set your flippin' watch by it! Been happening on and off for weeks. NowTV need to accept the problem is their end rather than keep dishing out the company line because we have all tried the 'fixes', they don't make any difference!!

@matt303 Have you tried PingPlotter to check for dropped packets? I’m having intermittent problems with NowTV at the minute, but I’m currently blaming the onboard software on my TV.

How is it that, of all the streaming services, the one that I get the absolute worst quality picture with is @NowTV. My broadband provider? @NOWTV

@G0F0RJ0E @NOW PL-0 is big problem. NOWTV get it sorted and provide upgraded app. Nobody wants to factory reset when your app does not work 😩
