  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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!

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • nigelstockley Nigel Stockley (@nigelstockley) reported

    @NOW sorry but you have to rethink boost at £6. What a rip off. When a stand alone Disney+ subscription is £7.99 for a whole high quality service that provides 4k and Atmos sound!! £6 add on for a measly 1080p and 5.1 that’s been around a decade is utterly ridiculous #NowTV

  • KelpieCreek 🌿 Moth Perrin 🌿 endure and survive 🦋 (@KelpieCreek) reported

    I got nowtv to watch the last of us and wow, the video resolution/quality is TERRIBLE on a mac. I can't see any option to change it, either :/

  • SheldonTarpey Sheldon L. Tarpey (@SheldonTarpey) reported

    @CraigWhite16 @NOWTV_It Bizarrely I just checked on my account and it said I couldn't watch it because I need the sports description! I've always had issues with NowTV's UX but it's been particularly bad lately.

  • samwademusic1 Sam Wade (@samwademusic1) reported

    On that note, I’m willing to trade a spare BT Sport login for a spare SkyGo or NOWTv login you lot may have 👀

  • UnshackldSpirit 🇺🇦Unshackled Spirit 🇺🇦 (@UnshackldSpirit) reported

    @LydiaJane13 *Group WhatsApp message to the lads…… ‘Boys, can’t make the boozer tonight, personal issue cropped up’ *renews NowTV subscription and settles down to season 3

  • TGxwiggle MrxWiggle (@TGxwiggle) reported

  • 25z2 © Bias BIOS (@25z2) reported

    @nowtv I have two new properties and want to take broadband with you for both. What do you define as a 'new' customer. I only want to pay £21pm and £5 set up per property.. That work for you?

  • bethanlaurenxx blk 🖤 (@bethanlaurenxx) reported
