  • Aimizing Aimi Rix (@Aimizing) reported from Luton, England

    @NOWTV I’m on a free weeks trial, 3 days in and it’s only worked 50% of the times I use it... I’m on Amazon fire stick, also same issues on my partners account using PS4 in different location

  • Garrardinho Gary Lager (@Garrardinho) reported from London, England

    @nowtvhelp I am currently using the NowTV Player software on PC w/ a HDMI cable to my TV. This works OK but occasionally this freezes and the video & audio go out of sync which wasn't an issue with Chromecast.

  • ChrisTheDJ Chris KEEP YOUR MASK ON Merriman (@ChrisTheDJ) reported from London, England

    I was so wrong about Peacock not coming to the UK - still trying to work out how it plans to coexist as a distinct product with Sky. Most of the launch content is already streaming via #skyq and #nowtv

    @NOWTV not working again?!? #btinternetsortitout #IHateSuzie

  • luvasunnyday Irene (@luvasunnyday) reported

    @johnburtons I deffo quality as a #FatherBrown groupie as I binge watched season 10 as soon as it was on BBC iplayer & then went back to rewatch from season 1 right through again on NowTV. I've said before a world without a season of FB in it would be a travesty

  • abeery1 abeer shahid (@abeery1) reported

    Why does NowTV have such awful viewing quality, makes no sense

  • AndyStav1 Andy Stav (@AndyStav1) reported

    @NOWTV trying to watch via my Google chrome cast app, but getting this error message. SDK.LOADING_LIMIT.UNKNOWN_REASON.MAIN_CONTENT Been like this for a week. I've updated my chromecast, restarted. Everything. I can watch on my phone but unable to cast. Please help!

  • ABriskwind RichardCycles (@ABriskwind) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam Hi. Trying to watch any programme on #NOWTV via the PS4 is shocking recently. Buffers every 10 - 60 seconds. Delete the app and reinstalled. Same issue. All other streaming platforms (Apple, iPlayer, Amazon etc) work perfectly. Have you updated the app recently?

  • fpl_de_zerbi FPL De Zerbi (@fpl_de_zerbi) reported

    @sdempsey @NOWTV Same issue here.

  • MUFFDUFF69 THE OLD WAYS.🇮🇪🇵🇸 ➡️➡️ YNWA (@MUFFDUFF69) reported

    @VirginMediaIE your app on NowTV is not working again I've done everything to right this but all i keep getting is loading 13%

  • MattFraser93 Matt (@MattFraser93) reported

    @sjmjarvis Disney+ I only have for Marvel stuff, the odd bit of Star Wars, new movie releases and some childhood shows! But my Netflix list is the largest! I've never tried Apple TV, I've got NowTV though so I can watch The Last of Us and god the service quality is bad! It's expensive too!

  • jasonbushell86 Jason Bushell (@jasonbushell86) reported

    @bt_uk hi, I signed up for broadband and tv (with nowtv entertainment package) last week. Got email saying I can watch nowtv straight away, but it's not letting me set a password (just saying try again later). I've tried a few different pws over the past few days. Any issues?

  • itsdinatime Rahim (@itsdinatime) reported

    If anyone can help me before the NOWTV help gets back, which NOWTV package (entertainment or cinema) would I need to watch the Oscars tonight?

  • KitKatisWeird7 Caitlin/Kit Carstairs 💗🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ (@KitKatisWeird7) reported

    The pathetic little stunt NOWTV have pulled with my PS5 is taking the utter piss now. So it was logged in but for some reason it was the PS4 app. Then the PS4 app ceased to work on PS5 and now it refuses to let me sign in. Utterly unacceptable.
