    @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

    @anniekinsb9 Annie, I am sorry to hear that can I ask is it the nowtv stick or the Roku stick you have the issue with?

  • JontyM4c Jonathan McNally (@JontyM4c) reported

    @NOWTV the man tells me that the issue may not be the router and he'll go check my line. Its my line. Surprisingly... It's going to take up to 2 working days to fix. This is on top of the time I waited for the new router.

    @nowtvhelp can you help me please. I purchased the stick with 1 month free but it would not let me move forward without starting the 7 day free trial which I'm currently on. I have logged in to redeem my voucher and it says it's not recognized. please can you help me #NowTV

    Never had customer services like it, my @NOWTV stick remote has broken and I'm told I have to go back to the shop I got it from over 2 years ago and ask for a replacement remote. Pay for for 3 passes a month and cant even send a replacement

    @goth_chick33 @BBCiPlayer Same here. On NowTV box. HUGE subtitles with black background. It looks awful. Why make it look so bad @BBCiPlayer? At least give us some settings!

  • PAULDREWERY Paul (@PAULDREWERY) reported

    The BBC TV this year... Is the worst ever. No wonder we don't pay for a license. Its all about Netflix, Prime and Nowtv. Mr BBC you don't even have one good blockbuster film on. @BBC
