    @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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

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

  • 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

  • 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

  • DavidLaney ⚽️Lethal Brizzle⚽️ (@DavidLaney) reported from Bolton, England

    @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?

  • 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

  • friendofthewolf bigbadme (@friendofthewolf) reported

    @nowtvhelp @NOWTV I was speaking to someone on the website chat about payments being taken from my bank account when I have no live passes but the chat got timed out. Can you help please?

  • notronomis Vinegar Tom (@notronomis) reported

    @NOWTV I have mobile sports pass but I'm being prevented from watching the match. AGAIN. PLEASE HELP

  • nowtvhelp NOW TV Help (@nowtvhelp) reported

    @Smoothste21 Our apologies Ste, the cable used for the NowTV stick is just a standard Micro USB. It should work with any of them you have which fit the connection port. If it still isn't powering up after you change the lead, then it may be a problem with the device or the plug.

  • VinnyT66780182 VinnyT (@VinnyT66780182) reported

    @NOWTV your service has deteriorated so all streaming is badly affected and all devices using WiFi are badly affected. No way to contact you. Your line test feature won't work .no agents on live chat available. Done all the end user stuff to reset. Still useless . Help!!! Wfh !

  • CooperPhotos1 AC (@CooperPhotos1) reported

    @nowtvhelp It happened during the movie Greed when I clicked on it then it went using the NowTV stick with the latest updates, do you think it could be a broadband issue?

  • optional_gun Jawn (@optional_gun) reported

    @nowtvhelp Hi, I'm trying to do a technical check on my line but getting "Sorry, we can't check your service at the moment. Please try again soon.". When I try to contact Live Chat, it's telling me it's currently unavailable. Are these issues at NowTV's end?
