    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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

    @Goddess1345 @margarance @bristolboudicca I work at sea between UK and EU. Now all streaming services won't work in EU unless you use a vpn , likes of NowTV have means of detecting that so can't watch that anymore. Also data allowance on UK unlimited tariff has dropped from 25gb fair use to 12 in EU already.

    @NOWTV why do you make it so difficult to cancel a subscription? Terrible user experience, 1/10.

  • PBaccaud Pierre Baccaud (@PBaccaud) reported

    @nowtv how come a broadband service provides such a bad customer service? How can they fail at installing broadband in time and not give us any sort of solution in the next 48 hours? Worst experience ever.

  • AmberLetham Amberdoesmermaidhair (@AmberLetham) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam major issues trying to use the app on PS4 & ps5, both apps up to date and internet connection is fine with everything else but nowtv is constantly crashing?
