    . @NOWTV @nowtvhelp any idea on how to stop the intermittent blue screen when playing back any on demand video or TV channels? Got an older now TV smart box. It's wired connection into a 300mbps virgin media hub so no issues.on playback speed.

    @PictureSporting Not going to defend that awful decision (or the move away from free TV in the first place), but I’ve found that switching to NowTV/BT monthly deals means I can swap a month at a time depending on who’s showing what… (Gone are the days of easy Kodi access to free sports, I think)

  • f1epi Alastair Stevenson (@f1epi) reported

    Been tearing my hair out @skytv. NowTV wouldn’t load anything at all on my iPhone. No help on the website and seems you try your best not to give contact to real people. Turns out it is iCloud Private Relay. nowTV WILL NOT WORK with it in the UK. Hopefully useful info for people

  • MGsoutherngeor1 MGsoutherngeordie (@MGsoutherngeor1) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam Not sure, but I've gone back to nowtv stick and the quality still nowhere near as good as bt. Paying extra for boost I'd expect at least as good. You have the tech to provide better quality. Obviously a policy not to, so as not to tempt some away from paying silly money for sky.

    @garius @NOWTV @NOW They'll send an automated repair drone out to fix the line, and you'll be returned to stage 1.

  • nickjsmith101 nick smith (@nickjsmith101) reported

    @NOWTV Is there a fix yet for getting the NOWTV player running on Windows10? It used to work but then it stopped working. I have been through every help guide I can on this subject but it still does not work... If I open the player, it goes black, then closes.

  • DyniteMrc5 Michael Cox (@DyniteMrc5) reported

    @NOWTV website problem, when I try to add Boost package it loads a page that just says "Not found".

  • ultraman_ginger Tobor The Great (@ultraman_ginger) reported

    @DaddyMightyZim Shame for them. The Netflix algorithm is still a work of art, but in a way no-one will ever notice. Prime is a mess, but not as much as NowTV. It's expensive, not very compatible, and it deleted my entire Watch List for no reason. I don't see much on Apple TV I want.

  • Charlotte_P_95 Char (@Charlotte_P_95) reported

    We've had nothing but trouble with our NowTV wifi and now it's frustrating

  • jonnopm john morshead (@jonnopm) reported

    @skytv When your NowTV sports package is so expensive, do you feel comfortable outputting 720p quality and charging £3 extra for HD ( no way near) quality? Just watched a match on Amazon Prime, and it puts yours to shame. At that cost, 4K should be expected.

  • Kurzheck Amy Tysoe (@Kurzheck) reported

    @HSouthwellFE I once asked a friend at Sky and was genuinely astonished to find out NowTV wasn't some kind of blackop, deliberately kept just barely functional but always awful, to drive sky subscriptions
