  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • MrsSherrec Mandy Sheridan (@MrsSherrec) reported from Warrington, England

    @jammylubbe @NOWTV Apparently it was everyone’s broadband that was the problem. Just been speaking to their so called help

  • 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.

  • KevNev90 KevNev (@KevNev90) reported

    I’m in the UK for work and @NOWTV have locked me out of my account. Another reason to end my subscription. What a joke!! They operate here as well!! #stupid #nowtv

  • zippydjh David H (@zippydjh) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam @danfreemanfan That’s nice I tweeted you twice with an issue that resulted after your latest update and you completely ignored me! We can’t all afford full-fat sky which doesn’t mean that you should ignore your NOWTV customers.

  • eviewonder22 Eviewonder22 (@eviewonder22) reported

    @NOWTV I was promised a refund of 6 months membership having battled with your customer service department for almost 2 months. I was told it’s take 3-5 days 8 days ago… still nothing. Reference 11111077. So tired of this awful service.

  • leon13 Leon Bienek (@leon13) reported

    @NOWTV I'm unable to log in, or reset my password. Can you help please 🙏

  • CityzenAlex ℂ𝕚𝕥𝕪𝕫𝕖𝕟 𝔸𝕝𝕖𝕩 🤝🏼 (@CityzenAlex) reported

    @Forsyth11 I went with NowTV in the end, £15 a month for all Sky sports channels, reliable and 4K quality.... The 3pms don't bother me, because when we're at home at 3, I'm there anyway, and it's literally 2/3 away 3pms a season anyway! So I'll listen on BBC Radio Manc

  • AaronGameMaker Aaron (@AaronGameMaker) reported

    One thing weird though is that I was watching it through NowTV and the picture and audio quality were absolutely atrocious on desktop. Picture was totally washed out, audio was crushed, and I have an excellent internet speed. And not only that but parts of scenes were cut! WTF???

  • squashour Squashour (@squashour) reported

    @PSAWorldTour First glasscourt match of the season - issues already. C'mon folks, you need to be doing a lot better than this. How much is the subscription for live squash? £10.99 per month, more expensive than Netflix, Amazon, NOWtv and only good for 10 months of the year!

  • KBpops Kirsty Braidwood (@KBpops) reported

    @nowtv, what’s up with SkyStore? Cannot login on TV but can on other devices?
