  • nebskii nebskii 🇪🇺🏳️‍🌈🐝 (@nebskii) reported from Urmston, England

    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.

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

    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.

  • 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.

  • b3ena Beena Mistry (@b3ena) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

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

  • LubeckRoss lubeck ross (@LubeckRoss) reported from Manchester, England

    @NOWTV I have a Problem with my NOWTV App through BT RE: DEVICES I'm unable to watch my Subscription channels Through either my TV or cast from my mobile phone ,This has happened lots of times the last time on Tuesday. I Had a online chat with Nowtv and it took 5 mins to fix.

  • Trewball 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

  • 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.

  • jxnluc 🤓 (@jxnluc) reported from Middleton, England

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

  • Nomio1984 Naomi Jewitt (@Nomio1984) reported from Oldham, England

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

  • Bleasedog Ian Blease | Dodgers Win! (@Bleasedog) reported from Manchester, England

    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.

  • yourmancman1 KoM Cazzer (@yourmancman1) reported from Salford, England

    Trying to watch prog on @NOWTV_It / any idea why it’s not working ? #nowtv

  • antoniapoppy Antonia Lallement (@antoniapoppy) reported from Stockport, England

    Hey @NOWTV what’s your problem? Why do you hate your users? Just play the next bloody episode

  • leehow2 Lee Howarth (@leehow2) reported from Urmston, England

    @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

  • forzaDane Forza Dane (@forzaDane) reported from Salford, England

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

  • missdawniehick 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

  • Ruthlisaellis Ruth Farrell (@Ruthlisaellis) reported from Meltham, England

    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!

    @NOW Imagine paying for 720p & adverts in 2022. And then expecting people to pay another charge to upgrade to 1080p & remove ads. The app is absolutely terrible, laggy, just generally disorganised. NowTV is miles behind it’s competitors.

  • chloeroberts1a chlöe (@chloeroberts1a) reported

    having to watch euphoria illegally because nowtv doesnt work on chromebooks is so gay like why cant i contribute to paying for tom holland and zendayas london mansion

  • niallmcgee niallmcgee (@niallmcgee) reported

    @jasongorman I'm not sure what you mean by "the Netflix platform", but that's probably my problem rather than yours. Are you saying you can login to Netflix on <something> and then from within Netflix access iPlayer or nowtv content?

  • bvtterflyvvs - ♡ (@bvtterflyvvs) reported

    NowTV the worst streaming company ever. How am I paying £11 and this shii is buffering and sound is cutting out?? This is fraud

  • _yeojjns hon¹² 🌱 (@_yeojjns) reported

    @DaniGabrielle94 it's okay but thanks! i ended up trying nowtv (british streaming site), had problems with my vpn (surfshark has all their UK ips blocked by like every streaming site) so i bought nordvpn and now it's working thankfully 😭

  • misshemlock 🦋Emma🦋 (@misshemlock) reported

    @ElGranPengTTV ohhh that’s smart i wonder if it’ll work in an xbox tho or like a nowtv stick

  • CarlJamesFowler Carl James Fowler (@CarlJamesFowler) reported

    Help, I can’t decide what movie to watch. Any suggestions? Netflix, Disney+, NowTV or Amazon Prime. (Big no to Horror films) I’ll end up watching Sweet Magnolias Season 2 and I can’t be arsed with that.

  • FmWebby Webby (@FmWebby) reported

    The Now TV app for PC is so bad... like seriously awful downloaded an update caus I was told to and now going to have to spend 30 mins troubleshooting so will miss the game... sort it out NowTV

  • SylviaNorthS evangeline/evie (@SylviaNorthS) reported

    @CarisShmaris Yesss I’ve heard so much about Yellowjackets but I don’t have Sky or NowTV 😭 That’s good to know about Snowpiercer, I really liked the film but had no idea how a TV series of it would even work.

  • AlexRos24888212 Alex Ross (@AlexRos24888212) reported

    @nowtv bought a pass to watch sky sports today. unable to watch it due to 'too many devices' but have no other logins or devices. £12 for no artvice, no one to call, no one who can help. what a rip off
