    @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.

    Why is @NOWTV so totally unusable? Trying to watch the #FRIENDSREUNION it will not allow me to rewind 2 seconds to rewatch a cherished moment without rewinding to the beginning. #infuriating. Is it on DVD?!?😡😡😡😡

    The problem I have with all the subscription services is that I now pay for: - Netflix - Amazon Prime - Disney - NowTV (sky sports) - bt sport - YouTube Premium - Spotify - Twitter - Audible - Google G-suite + more! At what point is it too much (are we already there!?)

  • lawiedc Duncan Lawie (@lawiedc) reported

    Appalled that, after paying for streaming on #NowTV it requires a separate app (that won't work on Linux), delivers muddy sound and forces advertising as well!

    iPhone people, is there a way to let videos play while you still use your phone - like still scroll twitter while watching a twitter video, still watch nowTV while using phone etc? Could do it on android but doesn’t seem to work on ios.

    @nflukhank @neilreynoldsnfl @NFLUK GamePass subscribers who are Dolphins fans are getting ripped off with all the blackouts. Either mix up the teams shown or issue 24Hr NowTV passes based on when your favourite team is on Sky. I’ve had almost no Dolphin games for my £150 yet

    @NOWTV just to warn anyone who is thinking of streaming with NOW TV cancelling your subscription doesn’t mean that this company will cease to take money from your bank account. @HSBC_UK I will need your help to get my money back.

  • Edwardigans Edwardigans (@Edwardigans) reported

    If The Last of Us show isn’t readily available on NowTV or some other streaming site alongside HBOMax for UK viewers I will be illegally torrenting it. That’s just how this is gonna work

  • AmiAmitkhetia amit khetia (@AmiAmitkhetia) reported

    @NOWTV got to say you guys have one of the worst services possible. Not only did you disconnect me for no reason but now it's impossible to sign back up. No wonder everyone pirates films in the UK. Even worse that there's no way of contacting you.

    Missed the Verstappen/ Hamilton incident because @NOW never works on our LG TV. Going to cancel the subscription, anyone else with this problem? #nowtv #BrazilGP

  • durrellb Durrell v1.0.11a (@durrellb) reported

    @MissCarrieW My NowTV quality is working perfectly (for once). It must not be agreeing with your internet connection for some reason.
