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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Straying14 Stray (@Straying14) reported

    @NOWTV are you serious. You’re having technical problems. They then somehow fix themselves. I sign into my account pay for sky day pass and get all the way to viewing in the app on the laptop and you say no VPN. I live in Indonesia and have all accounts in UK. What ********!

  • DJReece82 David Reece (@DJReece82) reported

    @NOWTV Yeah, as I suspected. The reset didn't help. Thanks for getting in touch about this anyway

  • Ellieflower12 Mrs Brown (@Ellieflower12) reported

    @NOWTV are there streaming issues in London at the moment? I can't watch on TV or phone. Although it loads on phone. TV is connected to Internet. 🤔

  • miss_lisak Lisa Kennedy 💙 (@miss_lisak) reported

    @NOWTV when watching anything on your channels, the subtitles disappear at random points during show/film. This is very bad for accessibility and should be your top priority to fix. Do you not care about people who are hearing impaired? Watching on LG smart tv.

  • benrouse80 Ben Rouse (@benrouse80) reported

    @NOWTV It is only an issue with NowTV. BTSport displays full screen.

  • BJord24 BUBBA JORD24 (@BJord24) reported

  • John26263989 John (@John26263989) reported

    @Hydor18 @NOWTV I sort legal help regarding them.

  • cof56506198 cof (@cof56506198) reported

    @NOWTV Have you tried developing a quality product thats actually worth the extortionate price you charge?

  • StevenTWilton Steven Wilton (@StevenTWilton) reported

    @roachsoap72 @NOWTV Can't you do it via the app. I have cancelled on numerous occasions without issue.

  • The_Enzo Enzo the rabbit (@The_Enzo) reported

    @BattDavey @NOWTV Let's hope it doesn't go back to normal. Working 9-5 in awful open plan offices pretending you like the people you happen to sit next to? Hour long commutes, traffic and overpriced overcrowded public transport? Nah I'm happy working from my living room 🎉
