  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • antoniapoppy Antonia Lallement (@antoniapoppy) reported from Stockport, England

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • AndrewHaynes72 Andrew Haynes (@AndrewHaynes72) reported

    @btsport your streaming service is absolutely rubbish, why am I bothering paying for this????? Don't have a problem with NowTV so don't blame my Internet!

  • Kurxx_ Kurxx (@Kurxx_) reported

    @NOW_Ireland I have been locked out of my NOWTV account for almost a WEEK! I contact support twice last week, the first said they had to escalate the issue and I would hear back by email. When I contacted support again after 2 days, they said the same. I need this resolved!

  • lespauljunior3 les paul junior 🍔🍺🎸🚍🐕 (@lespauljunior3) reported

    Don’t know whether this’ll work for anyone else, but just went to cancel nowTV because broadband is down (for a week) but they expect you to pay for TV services you can’t use. No refund. It offers you a discount if you go through to cancellation. Worth a look to save a few quid

  • rosiebaker Rosie Baker 💙 (@rosiebaker) reported

    @NOWTV I've moved into a new flat, ordered my internet almost a month ago to ensure it was ready the day I move in because I work from home, and now you're telling me my line hasn't been activated and to wait up to 72 hours for an email from another team to tell me why??

  • AtifB09 Atif Butt (@AtifB09) reported

    @NOWTV My internet is down a good few hours now and your website is not allowing me to sign in to check any faults. Your website crashes as soon as I click on sign-in Please respond.

  • LaverdaJota180 Reeds Wood (@LaverdaJota180) reported

    No phone/broadband connection for 12 days. Fix promised 8 days ago by @NOWTV. No mobile signal in area. Vulnerable person and emergency service worker living here. NOT GOOD ENOUGH. #nowtv #poorservice #sky @SkyUK

  • PhoeniXPhiL PhoeniX PhiL (@PhoeniXPhiL) reported

  • phillcollins08 TheOriginalPhillCollins (@phillcollins08) reported
