    @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.

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

    @delhi_dave No issue, I only know how to use a VPN correctly as some sites in the UK will only operate if you have a UK IP address, such as NowTV broadband, so I have to use a 'paid' VPN service.

    @NOWTV You can't even PRETEND you have a line issue to get round this. Because they force you to do a line test. At which point it tells you to (in essence) go away as your line is fine. It's a spectacular bit of chatbot shenanigans.

  • garius John Bull (@garius) reported

    It is impossible to get in touch with a human being at @NOWTV if you're router is broken, which is pretty impressive. It'll only let you talk to a human if there is a line issue. There is no path to a human if there isn't. I'm almost impressed with the low-level evil of it.

  • garius John Bull (@garius) reported

    @NOWTV Right now the only path I can see to actually chatting to a human being at @NOW is to physically rip the line to my house out of the box over the road. So that the line test will fail. So that I can tell them the router is broken. It's a magnificent bit of banality of evil.

    For something priced and marketed as a premium service, the technology behind @NOWTV seems so cheap and lazy. No automatic frame rate switching on Fire TV. Regular dips in stream quality. Doesn't even offer preview thumbnails when FFing or RWing.

    @NOWHelpTeam 1. my neighbour wants to cancel her subscription to NOWTV, she is not technically able and has asked me to help. She doesn't know her log in for the device and said she spent £24 speaking to you on the phone to get nowhere (I'm not sure about this). Can you advise me

    @NOWTV I have a pass for the arsenal v Watford game and it keeps saying I cannot make the purchase. Is there an issue with your services via a macbook

  • bencurthoys Ben Curthoys (@bencurthoys) reported

    @garius @NOWTV I would just put it in the bin, but on the very rare occasions that there *is* a line problem I need to plug the **** Home Hub back in to get them to agree to fix it, and then swap the working one back once they've gone.
