    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.

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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

    FFS. @NOWTV £10 for a pass #shfnew - iOS app won't chromecast , pc app has no sound. Going to have to watch on a &£&£g phone screen. Go online and it's a problem for everyone. Daylight robbery. #makingbtlookgood

  • Jbphotoonline1 Jonny McBride @ JBphotographyonline (@Jbphotoonline1) reported

    @NOWTV I continually get an error message on my account saying unable to sign in. This has been the case for months. Its a ridiculous level of service as your BOT chat is rubbish as it doesnt pick this up. Can someone please contact me

  • BWauthor Bob Williams (@BWauthor) reported

    @CraigRMacD @NOWTV Not by a long shot. But it’s a shame really bc Cavill is a wonderful Superman. It’s just he’s been shut to work with. Imagine pitching Reeve with people are gonna hate you and burn you in effigy. This is a Superman movie right?

  • Marc_McGiven Marc McGiven (@Marc_McGiven) reported

    @NOWTV Unfortunately it's not working, I tried with a few card numbers new and old

  • CivilityW CivilityWars (@CivilityW) reported

    @NOWTV I quite enjoyed this, but the sound was terrible. Background music kept drowning out softly spoken lines so it was difficult to make out what they were saying. Stop playing music while people are talking!!

  • Onthink MichaelC (@Onthink) reported

    @NOWTV Nope. It wasn't the worst, but far from the best. Donner's original film is the golden standard.

  • Emfear Emily Lanfear (@Emfear) reported

    What’s with @All4 app just NOT working. Same problem over and over again on both NowTV and Amazon firestick. Just doesn’t PLAY. Don’t have this problem with any other app. Basic functionality too much for All4?it’s like it using a f**king babbage. Just wanna watch some TV...

  • ellie_rose_xox Ells ♔ (@ellie_rose_xox) reported

    @Tom___barker @NOWTV It’s disgusting all they can offer me is a refun of £33 but have taken over £200. How does that work?

  • alfredoramosa Alfredo Ramos (@alfredoramosa) reported

    @NOWTV Don’t have a specific issue, the whole thing is overcomplicated and lacking. Just use other apps like Netflix, Disney+, Amazon Video and even BBC iPlayer. They have a much better user experience.

  • NileeshKale Nilesh Kale (@NileeshKale) reported

    @nowtvhelp @NOWTV Just got told that I cannot exercise my right to cancel broadband service before activation date whereas your contract states that I can cancel before activation. Please help as I want to cancel the contract and I have already tried by calling the 0330 number.
