    . @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."

    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.

  • 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

    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

  • 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.

    @theversion @NOWTV @UnstoppableLtd Clever thing with these cheap dramas ... they draw you in with a promising start and rely on audiences to stay tuned hoping for the plot to make sense and they never do. Too many like this now sadly. Quantity has taken over quality.

  • Snellytheyid Andrew Snell (@Snellytheyid) reported

    Worst. Internet Service EVER! Don’t go with @NOWTV Broadband, have had a whole year of **** speeds and **** connections with bullshit excuses. Fuming

  • Rhys__Muir rhys muir (@Rhys__Muir) reported

    @NOWTV This is the message I get "Thank you for your interest but it seems you have already finished this survey. ERROR: SE-04 Variable 'ntvid' already completed with value '3546659193065522352' for list='4' "

  • Cloud_Sounds Ted (@Cloud_Sounds) reported

    The All4 stream is not as good as NowTV or BT. Sure, poor people now have access to cricket, but does that mean I have to put up with a slightly poorer quality output? I didn’t inherit a load of money to put up with this. #INDvENG
