    Trying to contact @NowTV to enquire about their broadband and honestly it’s the worst. Talking to a Robot does not help.

    Is this bloody awful picture quality a @NOWTV scam to get you to pay £13 a day for HD?

  • 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

    @NOWTV How does this work? Do I need a box or a stick to plug in the TV?

  • HeresTomWithTh1 Here's Tom With The Weather (@HeresTomWithTh1) reported

    @NOWTV Hi. You very kindly told me I now have 4 months free sky sports access but whenever I try to watch it I have no access. Can you help?

  • JontyM4c Jonathan McNally (@JontyM4c) reported

    My @NOWTV experience since joining has been awful. On my 1st day, I called to see if they could install sooner. They couldn't. They text me later to delay it by 3 days actually...

    @nowtvhelp Pass not recognised on any NowTV device. All worked last night, and pass valid until next year. Turned off&on again hasn’t worked. Help please!

  • claudiaallenby 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐮𝐝𝐢𝐚 ✨ (@claudiaallenby) reported

    @NOWTV Hi our Now TV always freezes if there’s even a slight problem with WiFi (we have to unplug the TV to get it to unfreeze) how do I refresh the app?? Also today it’s just a black screen with white writing saying “Now TV is currently unavailable” wtf is going on???

  • BikeCoxy Mark Cox (@BikeCoxy) reported

    @NOWTV @nowtvhelp Can you help? I have just had my monthly phone charges for TWO calls I made to the NOWTV support line for a new Broadband service. The call charges total nearly £50 for around 12 minutes from a UK Landline. This cannot be right for a support line. #shocking

  • JontyM4c Jonathan McNally (@JontyM4c) reported

    @NOWTV once I finally got setup - everything going well. Then this week, issues. My Internet starts playing up. I call. I despair....

  • HashimKashgari Hashim Kashgari (@HashimKashgari) reported

    @nowtvhelp @KelvinRuthven @NOWTV I really wish you can fix a problem. All content is processed in 25 fps, speeding up and increasing the pitch of any 24fps content (pretty much all the movies). It irritates me when frames are 4% too fast, sounds are 4% too high-pitched, and every movie is 4% too short.

    @BenRoyTurner Problem is though we only have the choice of Cinema, pretty certain we can't get HBO in any form over here. So hopefully they work a deal with NowTV for the UK

    @NOWTV all my ‘continue watching’ items have disappeared? Is there a glitch?
