morble (@sophiemorbey) reported from Birmingham, EnglandWithin 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.

D. (@TheRightDan) reported@NOWTV @WTA @atptour Watched the first set of the men’s final last night. Sat down this evening after a long day’s work to watch the rest & it’s no longer available. Replaced by a ‘highlights’ version. Honestly, I’m astounded by just how awful this TV service is. Our beautiful sport ruined.
-
Alice (@76VEEKAY) reported@TomGaymor I fear it is a nowtv issue because none of the other live sports are working
-
Will (@willyt027) reported@stikler4141 @lola987123 @FilmUpdates Nowtv is perfectly fine. Should’ve seen it a few years ago it used to be unusable
-
Graham Booth (@laserblue) reported@virginmedia Hi, it seems my set top box is on the blink and my chances of watching my beloved Man City maybe at risk. I could switch to Nowtv, but that will cost me £15 for a 24hr pass. I've used the tips as featured in the trouble shooting guide. No luck. Can you help? Thanks
-
Steph Darby (@stephcrockford) reported@NOWTV I pay for the Sky Sports subscription and the quality of the streams I get lately is awful. My speed is 500mbps so it's not that... Can anyone assist? I'm not able to watch most channels.
-
SidXO (@SidXOwozere) reportedDecided to give @NOWTV a spin So far: - more expensive than competitors - crap quality streams on EVERYTHING (I have 500meg connection) - ads every 3 minutes so you never get into the flow on a program Binned off End of review 😜
-
Jacqueline 🏴 (@mrsjaclong) reportedIs there an issue with @EE television and @NOW my premium channels are down and I can't get into the app? #EE #nowtv
-
Joe (@JoeyL14) reportedYou can thank me for this. My VPN allowance expired at half time and every other one I've tried won't work with the NowTV app. So, once again, **** you @SkySports. I literally pay you (far too much) and you still block me from watching. Definitely cancelling in the new year.
-
♟️ (@dreeezabz) reported@Umer1up Nah nowtv is awful and you have to pay for half the collection
-
Ben (@WorbleTweets) reportedWhy is there no way to limit the playback quality in @NOW??? I live in the middle of nowhere so my internet isn't great so i'd like to lower the quality of streaming so it doesn't eat my bandwidth. Such a weird oversight considering every streaming service has this option. #NOWTV
