  • sophiemaybird_ Sophiemay 🐝 (@sophiemaybird_) reported from Salford, England

    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.

  • LubeckRoss lubeck ross (@LubeckRoss) reported from Manchester, England

    @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.

  • 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.

  • forzaDane Forza Dane (@forzaDane) reported from Salford, England

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

  • Bleasedog Ian Blease | Dodgers Win! (@Bleasedog) reported from Manchester, England

    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.

  • antoniapoppy Antonia Lallement (@antoniapoppy) reported from Stockport, England

    Hey @NOWTV what’s your problem? Why do you hate your users? Just play the next bloody episode

  • missdawniehick Dawn Hickey (@missdawniehick) reported from Stubbins, England

    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

  • Trewball John the Bastard (@Trewball) reported from Salford, England

    @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

  • yourmancman1 KoM Cazzer (@yourmancman1) reported from Salford, England

    Trying to watch prog on @NOWTV_It / any idea why it’s not working ? #nowtv

  • Ruthlisaellis Ruth Farrell (@Ruthlisaellis) reported from Meltham, England

    Seriously fed up of @NOWTV i can't log in on any device or any browser. Constantly saying try later?! Try to get help, nobody to talk to sends me round in circles!

  • sophiemaybird_ Sophiemay 🐝 (@sophiemaybird_) reported from Salford, England

    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.

  • jxnluc 🤓 (@jxnluc) reported from Middleton, England

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

  • Nomio1984 Naomi Jewitt (@Nomio1984) reported from Oldham, England

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

  • nebskii nebskii 🇪🇺🏳️‍🌈🐝 (@nebskii) reported from Urmston, England

    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.

  • 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

  • b3ena Beena Mistry (@b3ena) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @NOWTV my sky sport mobile pass is not working! It has only ever worked once, please can you help

  • Chris_GBR Chris Barber-Riley (@Chris_GBR) reported

    The problem I have with all the subscription services is that I now pay for: - Netflix - Amazon Prime - Disney - NowTV (sky sports) - bt sport - YouTube Premium - Spotify - Twitter - Audible - Google G-suite + more! At what point is it too much (are we already there!?)

  • lawiedc Duncan Lawie (@lawiedc) reported

    Appalled that, after paying for streaming on #NowTV it requires a separate app (that won't work on Linux), delivers muddy sound and forces advertising as well!

  • MarkFarrelly131 Mark Farrelly (@MarkFarrelly131) reported

    iPhone people, is there a way to let videos play while you still use your phone - like still scroll twitter while watching a twitter video, still watch nowTV while using phone etc? Could do it on android but doesn’t seem to work on ios.

  • A16XJD AJD (@A16XJD) reported

    @nflukhank @neilreynoldsnfl @NFLUK GamePass subscribers who are Dolphins fans are getting ripped off with all the blackouts. Either mix up the teams shown or issue 24Hr NowTV passes based on when your favourite team is on Sky. I’ve had almost no Dolphin games for my £150 yet

  • PVinden Peter Vinden (@PVinden) reported

    @NOWTV just to warn anyone who is thinking of streaming with NOW TV cancelling your subscription doesn’t mean that this company will cease to take money from your bank account. @HSBC_UK I will need your help to get my money back.

  • Edwardigans Edwardigans (@Edwardigans) reported

    If The Last of Us show isn’t readily available on NowTV or some other streaming site alongside HBOMax for UK viewers I will be illegally torrenting it. That’s just how this is gonna work

  • AmiAmitkhetia amit khetia (@AmiAmitkhetia) reported

    @NOWTV got to say you guys have one of the worst services possible. Not only did you disconnect me for no reason but now it's impossible to sign back up. No wonder everyone pirates films in the UK. Even worse that there's no way of contacting you.

  • NicFairhurst Nicola Fairhurst (@NicFairhurst) reported

    Missed the Verstappen/ Hamilton incident because @NOW never works on our LG TV. Going to cancel the subscription, anyone else with this problem? #nowtv #BrazilGP

  • durrellb Durrell v1.0.11a (@durrellb) reported

    @MissCarrieW My NowTV quality is working perfectly (for once). It must not be agreeing with your internet connection for some reason.

  • Bobbles_5 Arya (@Bobbles_5) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam Why do i need to read an article? Send amd engineer out to fix the problem!! She is a vulnerable woman with no phone or internet access nowtv has said and engineer will be out 48hrs!!!! She should not have to wait that long!!
