  • 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!

  • forzaDane Forza Dane (@forzaDane) reported from Salford, England

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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • Nomio1984 Naomi Jewitt (@Nomio1984) reported from Oldham, England

    @NOW Hi, we have a nowtv box (wired wifi connection) and it’s still not working this morning

  • d_shepheard slightlycynical (@d_shepheard) reported

    @RussInCheshire @AmazonPrime Suspect your internet connection. I have an Amazon fire stick on a tv with a virgin media box. The vm box buffers and loses connection while the fire stick (and nowtv stick) work fine. I only watch Amazon prime stuff through the sticks.

  • TheeTimCourtney Tim Courtney (@TheeTimCourtney) reported

    @NOWTV Is the silence a “yeah we know it sucks, we know the issues, we know the iPad app doesn’t let You mirror, we know about the 1 star rating on App Store, we know we’ve not updated the app since 2015(?) but we’re not going to address this, so why not buy our own NowTV hardware.”?

  • johnnix510689 john nixon (@johnnix510689) reported

    @NOWTV My tv and says oops that didn't work please try later

  • mrbensewell Ben Sewell (@mrbensewell) reported

    I pay a total amount of £58 a month for live football to @btsport and @NOWTV. Never had issues streaming using these services. Ironically, as an Amazon Prime customer I have bonus of them broadcasting a game not covered. Disappointing @primevideosport

  • johnnix510689 john nixon (@johnnix510689) reported

    @NOWTV Trouble shooting took 2 hrs to ask if I'd uninstalled the app

  • GridMediaUK Grid Media (@GridMediaUK) reported

    @NOWTV "Unable to sign you in, please try again later" is the error

  • SebCassette Seb F (@SebCassette) reported

    For some reason Im unable to log into @NOWTV ? Just says unable to login and try again later. Any help @NOWTV

  • NOWTV NOW TV (@NOWTV) reported

    @gareth_stothard H+Gareth thanks for getting back to me. Gareth I would advise uninstalling and reinstalling the nowtv app to see if this resolves you issues

  • nowtvhelp NOW TV Help (@nowtvhelp) reported

    @VerityTJ89 Verity believe it or not it is not irrelevant the reason I ask is since the update for Windows 10 the app is no longer supported. We advise downloading the nowtv player from the website. I hope this improves your picture quality

  • ReflectionOfAmy Amy (@ReflectionOfAmy) reported

    Sitting here feeling really smug having realised the NowTV stick I was gifted 4 years ago is powered by Roku and therefore, has Disney+. No more plugging the laptop in to watch The Mandolorian! Also, I found my degree certificate which I need for first day at work tomorrow 🥳
