    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.

    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

    @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.

    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.

    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.

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

  • 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.

  • DavidLaney

    @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?

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

    @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

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

    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.

    @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

  • 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

    @NOWHelpTeam why on Earth does the Roku version of the NowTV app crash/exit to the main Roku menu at EVERY ad break? It makes everything impossible to watch anything! Not good enough for a paid service!

  • SidXOwozere
    SidXO (@SidXOwozere) reported

    Decided 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 😜

    All my hope has vanished as well, I fear nth will fix the situation, they ruined everything... classic Nowtv @ercanugur @halefdizi #HalefKöklerinÇağrısı

    Divyesh - @divyeshm.bsky.social (@_DivyeshM) reported

    @CelticSky28 @skytv @NOWTV The problem is that it's available all at once on not-so-legal channels, so the opportunity to do week-by-week is lost. You can really only do week-by-week now if the entire world is in sync.

    Caitlin (@Cait_lin9) reported

    Hi @NOWTV I have ur app on an AmazonFire TV and on x1 firestick in another room. Neither are loading up shows at the mo. The buffering ring just goes around&around. I thought this may be down to my internet (although never been an issue before) but all other channel apps are fine

    @skytv sky stream is the biggest waste of money I think I’ve ever signed upto, crashes, buffering , and 50% of the time technical error on UHD. Please contact me, I want my contract cancelled asap I’m going back to @NOWTV, works much better
