    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’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.

  • 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!

    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.

    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.

    @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

    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.

    @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

    Sean Kaye-Smith (@seankayesmith) reported

    Absolutely stunned that #numan are allowed to advertised their products (on #NowTV) in that way. If the word ‘despair’ was used in connection with an issue like weight loss or ageing (for example) they would surely be silenced and fined millions. And they should be. Disgraceful.

  • _ken91

    @flintley @samueldhopkins I’ve never loaded it through a web browser but the apps on my tv and my nowtv stick, these functions work fine

  • benheymink
    Ben Heymink (@benheymink) reported

    The NowTV Apple TV app is one of the worst designed apps I’ve had the displeasure of using on the Apple TV. The irony is it used to be good and they decided to overhaul it and remove practically every useful feature! @NOWHelpTeam

  • samuelcwilliams
    Sam Williams (@samuelcwilliams) reported

    Hey @MLBTV could you fix your @Roku / @NowTv app? Its two weeks in to the season and its still not working. Same thing happened last year.

  • chantillyexpat

    @NOWTV can’t get in touch to ask about problem with paying my broadband bill. Live chat never available #help

  • paulbennett2018
    Paul Bennett (@paulbennett2018) reported

    Does @nowtv turn off it's fibre servers, at night? Getting slower download speeds, than when I had your basic #broadband.. pfft.

    @NOW iPhone, iPad, nowtv box. It’s not a device issue

  • OfficialJshow
    Rent (@OfficialJshow) reported

    @ConnahDC_ @SavinTheBees Nowtv is awful as well. You’re already paying two subscriptions but the audio is messed up as well. If you listen closely everything is higher pitched. Bruce Wayne sounds like a teenager in some scenes. Really jarring but love the film

  • Hughesy_1986
    Chris Carrington-Hughes (@Hughesy_1986) reported

    @bt_uk tried live chat. Told having multiple devices connected will affect speed. Not been an issue before. Can’t watch NowTV either which we pay additionally for. BT speed test gave is a higher reading than Speedtest app. Something fishy going on there. Who can actually help us?
