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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

    Anyone with a Sony Android TV have any other playback issues with like Disney+/NowTV etc? Every so often during an episode/movie, it’s kind of just stutters for a second or two. All of the apps are up to date as it the TV.

  • jkn600 Insert Name Here (@jkn600) reported

    Was considering a @NOWTV subscription, but the fact that 720p is the maximum quality for PC is an instant put off. The fact that 720 is still in your vocabulary as a streaming service limit in 2022 is beyond me

  • finaIghost abbie (@finaIghost) reported

    @wlwlauriestrode my nowtv free subscription ended like last month HELP

  • shaunmstone Shaun Michael Stone (@shaunmstone) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam hey getting a Unknown Page Error on the NOWTV TV app... Missing the game.

  • Atomheart1972 Glyn 🇬🇧 (@Atomheart1972) reported

    @NOW My 3 month discount ran out and NowTV deliberately did not mention this. They have now taken full price and I am looking into my legal situation to get my money back. What a nasty underhand company NowTv is. They don't even read your direct messages for help.

  • andyflossK Kay Louise (@andyflossK) reported

    @virginmedia It’s back up and running but when trying to access YouTube through Virgin it’s very glitchy so I’ve switched to my nowtv stick. The wifi seems to be ok so must be an issue with Virgin TiVo & accessing YouTube through that.

  • Doddford Andy Dodd (@Doddford) reported

    @NOWTV Hi. I support someone with a learning disability who is trying to find out why a charge has gone into their account. Your online help section and live chat ‘NOWbot’ are not much use. If your query doesn’t fit into their narrow answers you get thrown back to the beginning.

  • goodguyjas Jason Needs (@goodguyjas) reported

    @NOWTV the now tv app on iPhone is regularly getting stuck buffering and only restarting my phone clears it. Not sure if it is you guys or IOS15x as not had issues before. Any known problems? Removed and reinstalled app.

  • thebrainymac Rebecca McDonald (@thebrainymac) reported

    @SamAychG I have a nowtv login you can use if you want

  • Plowra76 Alexandra Plowright (@Plowra76) reported

    @NOWTV I pay extra for Boost so I can watch uninterrupted. Apparently trailers for other shows don’t count and worst of all contain spoilers. Thanks for ruining the grey’s anatomy mid season cliffhanger for me 😡
