    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

    @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

    @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

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

    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.

  • 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!

    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.

    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.

    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.

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

    @andrewdaviesuk NowTV is such a terrible user experience, too. I'm fine with paying for content, I can afford it. But I expect a decent experience, not one that leaves me screaming with rage

    @hayuhelps So last month it was an issue with people watching via NowTV, this month its an issue with people watching via Amazon prime. I think the issue doesn't lie with either, but with Hayu!

    Ram (@R4M_G) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam noticed an issue with NowTV and sky sports on Apple TV. Example right now watching the spurs v Chelsea game: when the game cuts to an advert, the sounds stop. Only way to get it back is to exit the stream and go back in. Happens every time there is a live game

    @NOW hi. I can't connect to YouTube through my NowTV?? It works fine on my phone but it won't on my TV, definitely clicked on it, had a black loading screen then went off. Turned TV on and off, also disconnected stick and put it back in with no luck. The others work fine.

    @katebevan Yeah this made me cancel my subscription, was already only using it occasionally because of the terrible NowTV app on Roku
