    Dawn Hickey (@missdawniehick) reported from Stubbins, England

    Subtitles: I have used many online streaming platforms to waste time during lockdown. @BBCiPlayer @NetflixUK @PrimeVideo @disneyplus @ITV and by far the worst most insaccessible and most unhelpful of them all is @NOWTV @nowtvhelp. The subtitles are incomplete, broken, freezing

    @NOWTV my sky sport mobile pass is not working! It has only ever worked once, please can you help

    The @NOWTV app has stopped working on my @LGUK smartTV, getting error PL-0 whenever I try to play content. Any solution other than resetting the TV to factory settings (NOT doing that as I'll lose my other app data)? Tried reinstalling app, no fix.

    @NOWHelpTeam I finally got through to your unhelpful team. No reason for cancelling my order, no thought for the problems this causes work etc. back to BT great customer service. whatever you’ve done to my broadband now needs an engineer to visit. Don’t go with #NowTV

    I’m not usually this type of person however @NOWTV / @nowtvhelp and @OpenreachHelp screwed me over with my broadband due to an issue with the exchange nearby - but failed to notify me. It’s been almost 3 days since I found out and haven’t had a message from them.

    The worst ******* thing when you’re just starting to watch a show on now tv and they remove it, happens all the ******* time @NOWTV

    @NOWTV awful service from you! You've messed me about for two weeks getting an engineer out to my #broadband and you still can't come for another 2 weeks despite the fact I'm a critical worker with no connection #cancelled and gone back to @virginmedia #usless

  • sophiemaybird_
    Sophiemay 🐝 (@sophiemaybird_) reported from Salford, England

    I’ve never, ever experienced anything like the service I’ve received with @NOWTV / @nowtvhelp - the sheer lack of customer care and the way my issue has been handled has been so shockingly bad I literally fail to believe a word they tell me.

    @NOW Hi, we have a nowtv box (wired wifi connection) and it’s still not working this morning

    @AldoH35 @BBCiPlayer @NOWTV I have an amazon fire stick in another room and it worked on that. So guess it’s a @NOWTV problem

    Hello @NOWTV please could someone get in touch work me? Bought a new stick tonight and keep getting the error "authentication plugin bot downloaded -4" Have tried everything I can find on the website and the bot live chat.

    Seriously fed up of @NOWTV i can't log in on any device or any browser. Constantly saying try later?! Try to get help, nobody to talk to sends me round in circles!

    John the Bastard (@Trewball) reported from Salford, England

    @jokerdaddy23 if you've not done it already, if you type in NOWTV cinema pass free trial into Google, you can get a 7 day free trial. I'm gonna buy a month pass for £12 anyway hoping it'll help but letting you know there's an option for those who are low on funds etc. #SnyderCut

  • JoshHalliday
    Josh Halliday (@JoshHalliday) reported from Manchester, England

    @NOWTV @nowtvhelp Please can you urgently fix the buffering issues? Not the first time it’s happened - usually during an England game. Not worth the money we’re paying for this.

    @chefarchiepie @NOW @NOWTV It really is frustrating when they won't or can't help you. We're paying a subscription for a shows I can't watch as no subtitles so what's the point. And when you ask for help they ignore you

    @TomGaymor I fear it is a nowtv issue because none of the other live sports are working

    @user00088888888 honey,the scenario is so bad that not a single channel or platform wanted it. even now,nowtv probably told them to re work on it because it’s THAT bad. he is unoriginal and tacky. no one gives af about him and his misogynistic ***

    @NOWTV your phone line isn’t working - please can someone help me?

  • neilhewitt
    Neil Hewitt (@neilhewitt) reported

    I have used many streaming services, and I think in terms of quality, NowTV is among the worst. You pay extra for UHD and better audio, and frequently don’t get it even on current content. I watched one episode recently where the audio was screwed up.

    Creda One (@creda_1) reported

    @NOWTV I have been waiting 2 hours now for an email to reset my password but still nothing, can you help?

  • paton_bk
    Bobbie (@paton_bk) reported

    @NOWTV Please fix subtitles on Season 1 Episode 3 of #ThePitt! They are completely out of sync with what is happening so the episode can’t be enjoyed by Deaf and Hard of Hearing members. I’m not going to continue paying for an entertainment pass I cannot use. #deafaccess

    @NOWTV I pay for the Sky Sports subscription and the quality of the streams I get lately is awful. My speed is 500mbps so it's not that... Can anyone assist? I'm not able to watch most channels.
