  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

    Hey @NOWTV what’s your problem? Why do you hate your users? Just play the next bloody episode

  • 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!

  • 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

    @NOWTV trying my best to contact you about your awful awful WiFi yet there is absolutely no way to find an email to explain my issue and your website just leads me in circles. Can't even watch a YouTube video on low quality without freezing. Can't wait to hear back xxxxxx

  • mrsnodes Mr Snodes (@mrsnodes) reported

    @NOWTV giving me the runaround about a refund - hard to find a human to chat to who then tells me to email a Help address which then returns an auto mail that says “this address is no longer monitored”. Taking the proverbial a bit.

  • ducati_johnv John Viero (@ducati_johnv) reported

    NowTV in Hong Kong no longer have Fox channels however still expect subscribers to pay for something they don’t get. No compensation, no discount, no release of contract. Worst service ever and think twice about signing up with these crooks. #nowtv #nowtvhk #pccw

  • Luke4697 Luke (@Luke4697) reported

    @ruthm4x @FormulaRaychie @LastLapLucy Used it for 4 years never had one issue on Nowtv bar one time on a Saturday there whole service was down 2 years ago. They gave me a partial refund though. it must've been a connection issue for you

  • jill86158336 Silly Jilly (@jill86158336) reported

    Spending the whole eve trying to sort out the #nowtv error I think it’s time to cancel 😡

  • Neetc Anita 💙🐶 🐾🌎🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇪🇺🏴‍☠️ (@Neetc) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam @nowtv are there issues logging? I cannot access app or online?

  • chowdhury_faz Faz (@chowdhury_faz) reported

    @BecsHalfhide @NOWTV @NOWTVHelp Has to be one of the worst companies ever. Nothing on their website either to say the service is down and it is still down. Virgin won't supply to my house as it's not worth their while digging up 30 more feet or so, to get to my house.

  • BottomFloer Gemma Gardiner (@BottomFloer) reported

    NowTv is down and it's slightly annoying. I have problems sleeping, and usually lie in bed just looking qt stuff on here, on fb or looking at Amazon. Guess I'm just gonna have to lie in the dark then

  • ijsimo25 Simo (@ijsimo25) reported

    @Luke4697 @ohitssxph @LastLapLucy Problem is NowTV (unless they've changed it recently) doesn't let you time shift. The only way in the UK to record the race and watch it when you get back in is to pay for a full Sky package. It's bonkers

    NowTV Broadband page saying issues in South East and Wales. I'm in Northwich Cheshire and have no internet 🤷@NOWHelpTeam
