    .@NOWTV has been absolute rubbish today, error after error, re starting over and over ‘oops something has gone wrong’ over and over - rubbish, not worth the cost of the pass today #fail

  • _chloscott chloé (@_chloscott) reported from Pontefract, England

    @NOWTV I’ve been billed £5.99 for my Sports Pass this month but I’ve missed half of the Super League match (the only reason I pay for this) because your app is convinced I don’t have an active pass... help please?!

    @PSAWorldTour First glasscourt match of the season - issues already. C'mon folks, you need to be doing a lot better than this. How much is the subscription for live squash? £10.99 per month, more expensive than Netflix, Amazon, NOWtv and only good for 10 months of the year!

    @NOWTV I was promised a refund of 6 months membership having battled with your customer service department for almost 2 months. I was told it’s take 3-5 days 8 days ago… still nothing. Reference 11111077. So tired of this awful service.

  • MarkSkinner_ Mark Skinner (@MarkSkinner_) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam Yes, the program causing the error is NowTV's player… But in terms of other software, no, I've not found the one that yours is confused about…

  • rutty_uk Dave Rutt (@rutty_uk) reported

    @LeadTestInclude We canned Virgin to go with Freeview plus Now Entertainment package. Still fairly cheap I guess. Just about enough programming that isn’t covered elsewhere. The NowTV box we have is rubbish. Awful interface (but it works - no channel numbers for freeview channels)

  • AngryFrogX Angry Frog (@AngryFrogX) reported

    @NOWTV #nowtv why is NowTV the only app still that buffers so frequently. I have Prime, Netflix, Disney+, iPlayer etc with no issues. Good solid Internet. People have been moaning about this for months/years. Any plans to fix it?

  • AaronGameMaker Aaron (@AaronGameMaker) reported

    One thing weird though is that I was watching it through NowTV and the picture and audio quality were absolutely atrocious on desktop. Picture was totally washed out, audio was crushed, and I have an excellent internet speed. And not only that but parts of scenes were cut! WTF???

  • Rickyyyy94 Rick Richardson (@Rickyyyy94) reported

    @NOWTV your streaming service for high demand games is so poor. Whenever there is more than 3 people watching a game, the quality of the stream is so s#!t

  • zippydjh David H (@zippydjh) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam @danfreemanfan That’s nice I tweeted you twice with an issue that resulted after your latest update and you completely ignored me! We can’t all afford full-fat sky which doesn’t mean that you should ignore your NOWTV customers.

    wanting to watch house of the dragon but noone awake knows what the nowtv login is :')

  • Baldy_Baldy_ Baldy (@Baldy_Baldy_) reported

    @NOW Think how much better it would be in 4K? Instead NowTV are still streaming in a quality that was available in the last century, 24 years ago! And then have the audacity to charge extra for a quality first released 15 years ago! Sort it out.
