    . @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."

    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.

    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

    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 not having an app for the latest Chromecast is ridiculous. They continue to be the absolute worst streaming service in the UK.

    @snydercutfan It’s all how file fps work or something like that. nowtv/sky never adjusted the files so everyone sounds like a chipmunk That sound issue plus how pixelated it all looked really ruined my first experience of the film. Took a full week off work to watch it as well

    .@NOWTV really is the worst streaming service going. Expensive, requires a barely-functional app to watch anything on the desktop, despite being the most expensive streaming service it also includes ads as standard 👎

    @pau1luvsutd @SkySports I am surprised nothing had been said by @SkySportsPL on this issue. Silence is deafening. Like you I'll cancel my subscription through nowtv.

    @alittlebitjenny Not sure if it'd work but it should be streaming on NowTV, which you could find a way to sneaky VPN yourself into watching via a free trial.

    @Lillibet_be @NOWTV Do what we did and avert your eyes for the worst, it’s worth it!

    @MissusBanham @NOWTV This exact thing just happened to me. They’re an awful company. Managed to squeeze a 6th of the money they’d unethically taken as a refund and then cancelled my actual membership. I’ll never go near @NOWTV again. Worst customer service I’ve ever experienced.

    Spent the last hour trying to get @nowtv to work on my chromebook like I used to be able to do. Seems sky have completely locked it down now. Not even sideloading works 😒
