    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.

    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

    . @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."

    @MrHellscape @AoDespair @skytv Problem is I don't have/cannot afford Sky. I did have NowTV but got rid of that too. I also want to actually own it but don't think there is much of a market for physical media anymore sadly.

    @NOWHelpTeam Hi. The remote for our NowTV stick is chewing through batteries. I have to change them almost every month. Is there any way to fix this?

    @NOWHelpTeam I’ve been having ongoing issues with NowTV app on iOS devices, both iPhone and iPad. I have Sports subscription through BT TV but it just doesn’t work on mobile devices. Please help as I feel I’m paying for service that is not provided to me.

    @NOWHelpTeam hello, I can’t get into my nowtv account as it says incorrect username/password when I used my now tv the other night and can’t get sign back in and when I try and reset my password I click on the link the email I get sent then I’ve changed password but then error?

    @kr_ys_ti_na @F1 I pay 33.99 for NowTV sports package, it’s affordable for me, I’m fine with it, but for anyone young, who doesn’t work, who has any major responsibilities that they dedicate a lot of their income towards just can’t watch. It never should’ve left BBC, at least it was free.
