    @NOWTV bought a sky sports mobile pass and not working in my account. Also then bought a sports day pass, also not working! You’ve took £15 off me basically. Someone please contact me to fix this or send my money back!

    @NOWTV is there an issue with your service. All day long I’ve been trying to resubscribe but having issues. Even when I try to reset password it says unexpected error? Any ideas?

    @NOWTV Any idea as to why I keep getting a PL-0 error message on my Xbox one S? I’ve removed then re-installed the app, cleared the cache and checked the location and dns status-all good! Can’t watch movies and it seems I’m not the only one??

    @chrisMU19 @MarkLong691 @kryptonscodex I'll have to look into that as have had Sky for years and never heard that about NowTV. I have access to other sites so worst comes to worst I'll watch elsewhere.

    Starting to seriously lose my **** at the crap service from @NOWTV because even on the lowest steam settings I'm spending more time watching it buffer than watch the show. A 45min show and I've been trying to watch it for 2 hours now. Absolute **** service.

  • WhatNowDoc Robin Redmile-Gordon (@WhatNowDoc) reported

    @NOWTV Hi, tried several times today to log into my account to buy a pass. Keeps telling me you’ve got a problem and to try again later. Suggestions/Explanations? Cheers

  • PetaSteph31 Peta Young (@PetaSteph31) reported

    @NOWTV Your help section on the website is baffling. I just need to talk to a human being about some account issues, how do I do this????

  • Wild1145 Ryan Wild (@Wild1145) reported

    Getting so fed up that between @NOWTV broadband and my @EE 4G, I have such a slow connection (currently averaging 1mbps at best) that I can't even stream shows even at horrific quality. I can't believe it's 2021 and broadband speeds are this bad.

  • Stephen_Neal Stephen Neal (@Stephen_Neal) reported

    @AndrewRWhite @scottygb Yep - I think Now/NowTV is a good cheap-and-cheerful solution for OK-quality streaming of VOD stuff and linear. But a dishless Sky Q with PVR functionality and higher quality download on-demand stuff would potentially have a role (but maybe not a big enough one to make £££)

  • Leidenfrost57 Grey blab (@Leidenfrost57) reported

    @NOWTV why do I always have buffering issues when streaming nowtv. Netflix, prime work fine but every time with nowtv i have issues. Constant stalling. Smarttv and PS4 both. And no, it’s not my internet! Some wrong with your servers? Any ideas?

  • Roarzz Roarz (@Roarzz) reported

    Chat of the Pro16 moving to Sky next season depresses me. I get that premier have a lot of issues and obviously are losing money, but getting to see every game live and on demand for a tenner a month was a no brainer. £34 a month for NowTV is a different question entirely
