    @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.

    @Wild1145 Hi Ryan, apologises for the slow reply our team works 8 AM to 8 PM. Can i ask you to DM the @NOWTV page so that i can send the more information on how to get in contact the relevant team to help resolve this issue for you.

    Chat of the Pro16 moving to Sky next season depresses me. I get that premier have a lot of issues and obviously are losing money, but getting to see every game live and on demand for a tenner a month was a no brainer. £34 a month for NowTV is a different question entirely

    @scottygb Honestly I hate NowTV BUT it’s the only accessible way I can watch F1 without super high fees and the app for Apple TV is literally the worst to navigate and now this?! No thanks 😫

  • Wild1145 Ryan Wild (@Wild1145) reported

    Starting to seriously lose my **** at the crap service from @NOWTV because even on the lowest steam settings I'm spending more time watching it buffer than watch the show. A 45min show and I've been trying to watch it for 2 hours now. Absolute **** service.

    @Criminolojen Hi Jen thanks for getting in touch and I am sorry to hear that. Jen can I ask are your receiving any error messages or is it that there is no power on the nowtv stick? thanks

  • Leidenfrost57 Grey blab (@Leidenfrost57) reported

    @NOWTV why do I always have buffering issues when streaming nowtv. Netflix, prime work fine but every time with nowtv i have issues. Constant stalling. Smarttv and PS4 both. And no, it’s not my internet! Some wrong with your servers? Any ideas?

    @PhilMealey Hi Phil thanks for getting in touch and I am sorry to hear that. Phil can I ask is it allowing you to sign in on any other device other than the phone? can I please ask are you trying to do this directly through the website on a web browser or on the nowtv app. Thanks

    @NOWTV This issue still hasn't been fixed. Any idea when it will be fixed? It is very annoying, you might as well remove it from the package. @NOWTV
