    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!

  • 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

    . @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

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

    Nowtv is missing from the home page on @Nowtv devices @nowtvhelp . It can't be uninstalled to reset it as the separate Nowtv app was removed by Nowtv. Fix it.

  • robertemeryx Robert Emery 🥳 (@robertemeryx) reported

    @nowtvhelp It's a Lenovo TAB 4 8 Plus. Issue happens in the NowTV app. I can connect in the web browser. But the web browser does not allow playback. If I select a video in the web browser and click to play it in the app it passes me to the app which immediately disconnects. Every time.

    Sitting here feeling really smug having realised the NowTV stick I was gifted 4 years ago is powered by Roku and therefore, has Disney+. No more plugging the laptop in to watch The Mandolorian! Also, I found my degree certificate which I need for first day at work tomorrow 🥳

  • jayk2011 James Kent (@jayk2011) reported
