@NOWHelpTeam I finally got through to your unhelpful team. No reason for cancelling my order, no thought for the problems this causes work etc. back to BT great customer service. whatever you’ve done to my broadband now needs an engineer to visit. Don’t go with #NowTV

@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.

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.

@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

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.

@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

@NOWTV When attempting a “reset” on my NowTV stick, I am getting beyond the internet password only to be told I need to check my hdmi cable connection. There is no problem with that. Solution please?

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.

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

@MickCordukes @_morgan_bruce looked Tosh doesn't have an app obviously haven't paid for it off bt, but if fairly new TV you can cast from a smartphone quick check online will explain, you will need a BT sport membership to login, if using a shared login can only be on 2 devices at once. Will work on NOWTV

Absolutely awful customer service experience from @NOWTV today. Was a customer with them for a year and changed provided after a 12-month contract only to be hit with non-contractual termination charges. Will be reporting to ombudsman (which will cost them a lot more than £13!)

(@LateSaid) reported
@anon_opin Probably have a point but it's definitely not the worst. Have you tried watching TV through the Nowtv desktop app!? Click play about 2 days before you actually want to watch the show! Also, iPlayer goes up to 11!

Day and a half outage over the weekend in Hastings, now minimal bandwidth: 20 seconds of streaming, then nothing for minutes. NowTV broadband really stinks at the moment.
