    @NOWTV @nowtvhelp I’m wondering whether or not you’re going to address the ongoing issues with your system: crashes, endless-malfunctions, etc., or do you not care? Are you running #nowtv into the ground in the hope of bullying people into buying #skytv?

    NOWTV & Virgin Media are playing silly buggers on my PS4. My phone, MacBook & iPad all work fine but the one platform I need to work, keeps freezing and buffering🤬

    Quick fix for people having the "Account access problem" on @SpotlightUK. It seems there are issues with certain ISP's e.g. NowTV that are stopping people accessing Spotlight. They are working on it but the quick fix would be to use phone data or a different net connection.

    @NOWTV are scammers. They don't tell you they're going to charge you for two separate services clearly enough for disabled people. Tried to talk to "customer services" (in quotes I wouldn't call it a service) and had no help with the refund. Can't charge back either on PayPal!

    @NOWHelpTeam @philip_tudor While this issue exists, how about extending the amount of devices you can watch Nowtv on so that people can watch it on another device without the faff of juggling devices?

  • thetaylor82 Andrew Taylor (@thetaylor82) reported

    @NOWTV I can't Steam F1 to any Chromecast without it crashing the app. Why don't you just make an app for the Nvidia shield, your casting always causes issues.

  • tomobhoy6 thomas watt (@tomobhoy6) reported

  • GeoBrown26 George Brown (@GeoBrown26) reported

    Worst ever service by @NOWTV @NOWTVHelp We have cancelled the service as we were having regular issues which is updated on the notes as well and we asked to cancel it by 10th Apr but it was made for 1st Apr and few days back again when we called they said will call back today...

  • ffc_steve Steve (@ffc_steve) reported

    @NOWTV have just nicked £33.99 out of my account a month after me cancelling. Then the bloke on the live chat goes missing after I ask about it. Awful company

  • GGottfried1 Glenn Gottfried (@GGottfried1) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam Hi, having broadband issues in SK6. Hub green light is on but virtually no internet. Did a technical check on the NowTV site and it says it recognises there’s an issue with the line but can’t diagnose it. Is this a wider area issue?
