    @virginmedia Hi Virgin. My parents are having an absolute mare with their broadband at the moment. Every single internet service is constantly buffering. Wired or wireless. Prime, Netflix, NowTV. Impossible to get through to any kind of support. Can you help?

    Someone please tell me how to fix when your tv actors voices don’t match their lip movements I’ve already turned the audio on and off in settings and left the tv off for 10 mins #nowtv @NOWTV_It

    @garius @NOWTV @NOW They'll send an automated repair drone out to fix the line, and you'll be returned to stage 1.

    NowTV is literally so trash. I paid £10 for it so I could watch one thing and I can’t watch it because it literally just keeps buffering. My internet is fine, YouTube and Netflix both work perfectly but nope. Not NowTV.

    @garius @NOWTV I had similar problems with @virginmedia. It seems silly, but a letter emailed to their operations director got some action.

    @ITV i've just realised that your app on nowtv is 7 mins behind the live racing. Which socks a little because its not as fun to watch racing from 10 mins ago. Any update on the fix you've been proposing for months?

    @NOWHelpTeam hi could you advise me-my friend's landline has no dialling tone and she cannot sign in to nowtv as her email address isn't being accepted. Th8s is causing her a lot of distress. Thank you.

    @NOWTV Is there a fix yet for getting the NOWTV player running on Windows10? It used to work but then it stopped working. I have been through every help guide I can on this subject but it still does not work... If I open the player, it goes black, then closes.

  • Kurzheck Amy Tysoe (@Kurzheck) reported

    @HSouthwellFE I once asked a friend at Sky and was genuinely astonished to find out NowTV wasn't some kind of blackop, deliberately kept just barely functional but always awful, to drive sky subscriptions

    @NOWHelpTeam Trying to view sites of VPN providers (Nord, Express, SurfShark) but can't - w/o using a VPN?! If I use TunnelBear they work, but if not they time out. Are you blocking them? Not trying to use a VPN to view NowTV, but to shop for a VPN for secure browsing overseas
