    @NOWTV I am fully aware of that. The programme was recorded in 4:3 but looks square (really thick side bars). 16:9 TV adverts have black bars when they should be in full screen. No problems until yesterday.

    @MartinSLewis Plusnet £23.99. No idea what speed but never had any problems. Used to have virgin and tv package but it was getting so expensive. We not have nowtv it’s so much cheaper.

    @SoozUK @NOWTV Mine occasionally disappears across apps. Last night all my TV apps randomly decided not to cast, with an unexplained error. Then today it’s fine again. None of this is helpful, but hopefully you won’t feel so alone in this dystopian TV hell.

    @Bleasedog @NOWTV Have you googled the issue? Last time I had an unfathomable problem it was bc the service was not compatible with my TV and caused problems. It was Disney+ and LG televisions. They just don’t like each other!

    @nowtvhelp there appears to be an issue with the sound on Nowtv. The sound is constantly stutter. I’ve checked my tv, soundbox and virgin box, there is no issue with any of them. When will this be sorted please.

    @NOWTV I really need to speak to a human being about a problem I have setting up a broadband account. It's a complicated situation and the chat bot is not sufficient. How can I do this? Thanks

    @Bleasedog @NOWTV I’ve had the same issue tonight. 4K smart box worked when first setup this morning apart from Netflix. Factory reset and now getting nothing other than the same error you’re getting

    @NOWTV @nowtvhelp these are the worst internet providers I’ve ever had. I want to transfer the internet to the new housemate as I’ve had to move out (so not candy but transfer) and they are telling me there will be at £100 charge to do so, they refuse to just transfer the account
