    @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.

    @NOWTV Absolute tragedy what happened to Britney ! Hounded over & over .. Just awful

    4 days later... and nothing at all has happened. No fix, no engineer, not even a reply to a tweet I sent Virgin Media directly. Ordered a new line for £5 from NowTV, will be £24 a month, saving £350 over the next year.

    @NOWTV defo feel for her and can see how she needed help and hope she can be allowed free of her chains however I was very disappointed in the documentary. Didn’t really tell us much that wasn’t already known apart from talking to a few sources

    @4Viewers Hi All4 - we keep getting an error message when trying to login to the app on the TV. Your message says “Well, this is Embarrassing... please try again in a few minutes”. We are accessing through a NowTV stick, if that helps.

    @NOWTV Watching Hustle. Why is the picture quality so bad. Was better 50 years ago. And before you say it, there is nothing wrong with my setup. 🤨

  • MagnoBro *** Kelly (@MagnoBro) reported

    @NOWTV when I watch shows on your desktop app the audio is out of synch. Based on your forums, this seems to have been an issue for FOUR YEARS. Tell me again why I should not just pirate your shows?

    @saramara88 @slightlycrunchy @NOWTV Coming from someone with your lack of IQ, I’ll have to take your work for it. #fakefacts

    @NOWTV I appreciate the connection issue is with open reach a d they are struggling to get a connection, however I’m choosing you as a company and expect a certain level of customer service! I asked to speak to a manager and was told “no! Due to the pandemic we don’t share headsets”

  • YanaWilliams1 Yana Williams (@YanaWilliams1) reported

    @NOWTV 80 year old clinically vulnerable uncle still waiting on connection from Monday 15th. Shocking service, no answers or solution. How do we cancel as your contract is broken?!!!!
