    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.

    @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.

    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!

    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.

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

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

  • 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.

    @NOWTV_It hi there i have two pending transactions called 'NOW B4C37 CINEMA' and 'NOW C7F9D BOOST'. I don't know what these are but it looks like it may be NowTV but I haven't signed up or anything, so it may be fraudulent. Can you help?

  • andywasley
    Andy Wasley (@andywasley) reported

    A VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION: Why is NowTV so terrible? It's like it saw everything that was ever bad about every other streaming service, and cobbled it together into one horrible horrible HORRIBLE mess. Why? WHY?

  • brrrake
    BRRRAKE (@brrrake) reported

    @SpannersReady Honestly. NowTV is the worst thing ever.

  • padward18
    Paddy J Ward (@padward18) reported

    @martinbeanz @PremierSportsTV @NOWTV Pay 30-50 euro a year for a dodgy service that's better quality than the premium licensed service. Greed will be their downfall

  • NftPit
    The Pit {BNTY} 🔱 $OOO (@NftPit) reported

    @dedegengod 1/ He bro I notice you help people in need and have a $DUST generator. I am very poor, my house only has 3 bedroom’s a garage and a single drive. Subscriptions prices for Netflix, NowTV, Disney+ and Amazon are getting beyond a joke.

  • Milo_AFC
    Milo (@Milo_AFC) reported

    @thewonderladie It’s what I’ve been doing, don’t rush to see the new thing as soon as it’s available unless I’m reviewing it or it airs weekly and I’m already caught up. Doesn’t help that NowTV usually has a deadline on when US stuff usually leave their service, but should have enough time.

  • Drhelengordon
    Helen Murray (@Drhelengordon) reported

    @OpenreachHelp No . We are with @NOWTV and speaking to them they said the outage has been logged but all down to yourselves, nothing they can do and no estimate on when it will be repaired

  • yorksranter
    Alex Harrowell (@yorksranter) reported

    Has anyone, ever managed to use NowTV without missing 20 minutes of whatever you wanted to watch dicking around with it to work out how to get it to download the half gig of crap it wants before doing anything?

  • shirleyc622
    shirleyc62 (@shirleyc622) reported

    @NOWTV my router needs reconfiguring so my hp printer can connect. I was told by your staff it isn't possible. Can someone help please?

  • DJTarranAFC
    Dave Tarran (@DJTarranAFC) reported

    @PooWithEyes yeah i can't remember the last time anyone in my house watched live TV. sky have noticed the shift and are pushing Nowtv a lot, I think BBC need to act now because it'll get left behind and the license fee is just way outdated plus Netflix have way better quality content
