    @NOWTV I have a Problem with my NOWTV App through BT RE: DEVICES I'm unable to watch my Subscription channels Through either my TV or cast from my mobile phone ,This has happened lots of times the last time on Tuesday. I Had a online chat with Nowtv and it took 5 mins to fix.

  • sophiemaybird_ Sophiemay 🐝 (@sophiemaybird_) reported from Salford, England

    I’ve never, ever experienced anything like the service I’ve received with @NOWTV / @nowtvhelp - the sheer lack of customer care and the way my issue has been handled has been so shockingly bad I literally fail to believe a word they tell me.

  • JoshHalliday Josh Halliday (@JoshHalliday) reported from Manchester, England

    @NOWTV @nowtvhelp Please can you urgently fix the buffering issues? Not the first time it’s happened - usually during an England game. Not worth the money we’re paying for this.

  • leehow2 Lee Howarth (@leehow2) reported from Urmston, England

    @NOWTV awful service from you! You've messed me about for two weeks getting an engineer out to my #broadband and you still can't come for another 2 weeks despite the fact I'm a critical worker with no connection #cancelled and gone back to @virginmedia #usless

  • nebskii nebskii 🇪🇺🏳️‍🌈🐝 (@nebskii) reported from Urmston, England

    The @NOWTV app has stopped working on my @LGUK smartTV, getting error PL-0 whenever I try to play content. Any solution other than resetting the TV to factory settings (NOT doing that as I'll lose my other app data)? Tried reinstalling app, no fix.

  • yourmancman1 KoM Cazzer (@yourmancman1) reported from Salford, England

    Trying to watch prog on @NOWTV_It / any idea why it’s not working ? #nowtv

  • jxnluc 🤓 (@jxnluc) reported from Middleton, England

    The worst ******* thing when you’re just starting to watch a show on now tv and they remove it, happens all the ******* time @NOWTV

  • b3ena Beena Mistry (@b3ena) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @NOWTV my sky sport mobile pass is not working! It has only ever worked once, please can you help

  • missdawniehick Dawn Hickey (@missdawniehick) reported from Stubbins, England

    Subtitles: I have used many online streaming platforms to waste time during lockdown. @BBCiPlayer @NetflixUK @PrimeVideo @disneyplus @ITV and by far the worst most insaccessible and most unhelpful of them all is @NOWTV @nowtvhelp. The subtitles are incomplete, broken, freezing

  • MrsSherrec Mandy Sheridan (@MrsSherrec) reported from Warrington, England

    @jammylubbe @NOWTV Apparently it was everyone’s broadband that was the problem. Just been speaking to their so called help

  • Trewball John the Bastard (@Trewball) reported from Salford, England

    @jokerdaddy23 if you've not done it already, if you type in NOWTV cinema pass free trial into Google, you can get a 7 day free trial. I'm gonna buy a month pass for £12 anyway hoping it'll help but letting you know there's an option for those who are low on funds etc. #SnyderCut

  • Bleasedog Ian Blease | Dodgers Win! (@Bleasedog) reported from Manchester, England

    Hello @NOWTV please could someone get in touch work me? Bought a new stick tonight and keep getting the error "authentication plugin bot downloaded -4" Have tried everything I can find on the website and the bot live chat.

  • forzaDane Forza Dane (@forzaDane) reported from Salford, England

    @AldoH35 @BBCiPlayer @NOWTV I have an amazon fire stick in another room and it worked on that. So guess it’s a @NOWTV problem

  • Nomio1984 Naomi Jewitt (@Nomio1984) reported from Oldham, England

    @NOW Hi, we have a nowtv box (wired wifi connection) and it’s still not working this morning

  • antoniapoppy Antonia Lallement (@antoniapoppy) reported from Stockport, England

    Hey @NOWTV what’s your problem? Why do you hate your users? Just play the next bloody episode

  • MrsSherrec Mandy Sheridan (@MrsSherrec) reported from Warrington, England

    @NOWTV thanks to your poor quality streaming, I has to watch the last two minutes of the F1 qualifying through a blurry picture

  • alext_davies Alex Davies (@alext_davies) reported from Manchester, England

    @NOWHelpTeam I finally got through to your unhelpful team. No reason for cancelling my order, no thought for the problems this causes work etc. back to BT great customer service. whatever you’ve done to my broadband now needs an engineer to visit. Don’t go with #NowTV

  • sophiemaybird_ Sophiemay 🐝 (@sophiemaybird_) reported from Salford, England

    I’m not usually this type of person however @NOWTV / @nowtvhelp and @OpenreachHelp screwed me over with my broadband due to an issue with the exchange nearby - but failed to notify me. It’s been almost 3 days since I found out and haven’t had a message from them.

  • DavidLaney ⚽️Lethal Brizzle⚽️ (@DavidLaney) reported from Bolton, England

    @NOWTV When attempting a “reset” on my NowTV stick, I am getting beyond the internet password only to be told I need to check my hdmi cable connection. There is no problem with that. Solution please?

  • frankrafferty frankrafferty (@frankrafferty) reported

    @Celtic1967_com I'm actually happy that I've spent over an hour demanding a refund for a NowTv day sports pass that didn't work. Otherwise I could've been watching that shitshow of a game. A good team ruined by **** mgmt, **** board, **** recruitment.

  • NeilPudney Neil Pudney (@NeilPudney) reported

    @MotchmanHarry @NOWHelpTeam The only good thing about this is you can set your flippin' watch by it! Been happening on and off for weeks. NowTV need to accept the problem is their end rather than keep dishing out the company line because we have all tried the 'fixes', they don't make any difference!!

  • CharlieLards Andrew Read (@CharlieLards) reported from Marks Tey, England

    @NOWHelpTeam Suprise, surprise another day, race day, and still the same buffering issues! #nowtv you take our money now supply the service! I followed your advice yesterday and this is still happening! #NOWHelpTeam #nowtv

  • BethMKnight13 Beth 🤍💚💜 (@BethMKnight13) reported

    @CountryGalLaura I've been saved by the fact last night's Indycar race is now finally uploaded to On Demand on NowTV so watching cars crash instead!

  • CatchyShoe Catchy Shoe (@CatchyShoe) reported

    @jerryduk @NOWHelpTeam I’ve been disconnected since 16:30. The nowtv webpage says there are issues in North London. Do you have any updates on this?

  • thenathkinsell Nath Kinsell (@thenathkinsell) reported

    Love paying for NowTV to watch the F1, and spending my time seeing it buffer every five minutes...

  • EddJefferson Edd Jefferson (@EddJefferson) reported

    I do find it funny that NowTV have spent however much they have on rebranding themselves as "Now" only for: A) everyone to keep calling them NowTV. And B) their streaming apps to still be terrible.

  • josh_kruk Josh Kruk (@josh_kruk) reported

    Why are Sky Sports streams on NowTV through a Chromecast sooo **** the quality is barely HD and always freezing 🤬

  • RobPorges Rob Porges (@RobPorges) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam @janfallenx How is this link supposed to help, when you admit that the issue is a NowTV Sports issue? It's not our equipment/setup/internet connection that's causing the problem.

  • RichardGledhill Richard Gledhill (@RichardGledhill) reported

    @NOWSport Hi, major problems with buffering and playback stability yesterday and today when using Chromecast (both old Chromecast Ultra and latest Chromecast TV). Fine on NowTV box and PC application. Can you fix Chromecast streams please? Thanks.
