    @NOWHelpTeam It's asking me to log into this service, I have tried my nowtv details and they don't work? Can you not look into this?

  • SirDarrenM Darren (@SirDarrenM) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam the NowTV app has stopped working on my Lenovo tablet. Tried live chat twice and keep getting fobbed off that technical support will contact me. Paying for football etc... But can't watch it. All other apps work so it ain't the tablet.

    @SkyUK It is but NOWTV isn’t anywhere near the level of sky with regards to investment, UX, channel selection and video/audio quality. Sky Glass looks to be the full sky experience via IP, which is awesome, I just wish I could use it on my Sony OLED.

    Hey @bt_uk can someone DM me to help with a NOWTV enquiry?

  • Tony__Danger Mr Tony (@Tony__Danger) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam It is. Unfortunately a lot of services (Including NowTV) advertise that they have subtitles, but it's not actually on the live TV, so it makes it totally unusable for people with hearing issues.

    @JustHoneyBadger I mean, there's certainly awful daytime and evening live TV with ****** adverts in England too haha. I just think most people watch on demand TV at least. We have a TV, but don't remember the last time it wasn't Netflix/Amazon/NowTV etc

    @Roku - help! I am trying to install NowTV app on my new ROKU 3920EU. Updated software, factory reset 4 times, tried both BT and Three broadband. Cannot find NowTV. Netflix, Prime Video and AppleTV all registered and working

    @BenHanson1989 @CznOfEverywhere @BethRigby NowTv is a bit crap though. I use it as it's cheap but the quality ain't great.

    Dare to say worst streaming app out there (stability and built-wise) @NOWTV, half way through a movie decided not to work no more, finished the movie on @PrimeVideo. Might as well cancel the passes, it’s a dead app.

    I hate @nowtv app!! 🤬 App crashes, restart refuses, no it is not a concurrency error, just one device, now I missed a goal. Pfffffffffft #SCOISR
