    @jokerdaddy23 if you've not done it already, if you type in NOWTV cinema pass free trial into Google, you can get a 7 day free trial. I'm gonna buy a month pass for £12 anyway hoping it'll help but letting you know there's an option for those who are low on funds etc. #SnyderCut

    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.

  • 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

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

  • 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

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

    @NOWTV thanks to your poor quality streaming, I has to watch the last two minutes of the F1 qualifying through a blurry picture

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Nomio1984 Naomi Jewitt (@Nomio1984) reported from Oldham, England

    @NOW Hi, we have a nowtv box (wired wifi connection) and it’s still not working this morning

  • SophiePrior16 Sophie Prior (@SophiePrior16) reported from Wigan, England

    Anyone else having issues with @NOWTV stick not connecting to the Internet?

  • 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.

  • LubeckRoss lubeck ross (@LubeckRoss) reported from Manchester, England

  • Ruby_Bliels The Captain (@Ruby_Bliels) reported

    @DarionBrown3 @TheDCEU In the UK it was released on NowTV, it was horribly compressed and sped up to 25fps so ran in fast forward with 'chipmunk' sound as the pitch was raised a semitone. The 4K disc fixes all the issues and is amazing. I'd love to see it in full iMax though.

  • JPPaul20 Jimmy (@JPPaul20) reported

    @NOW hey NowTV won’t work on my phone, my tv or my PlayStation. Just buffers - two days now. I’m paying for this guy’s! #NowTV

  • laurabelle2512 Laurabelle2512 (@laurabelle2512) reported

    @NOWTV any help on how to contact yourselves? Call only helps with broadband and emails were in exchange till i passed to IT now apparently emails are not monitored? I can not access my account nor can i cancel any other way

  • F1Chris1965 Chris Thompson (@F1Chris1965) reported

    @LastLapLucy You can get NowTV weekend passes, they often have promotions, a weekend pass is often like £10 etc, its a good option means only pay at race weekends without having the channels all year, they not 4k etc but perfectly good quality

  • MVNidd Captain (@MVNidd) reported

    I hope @NOWHelpTeam might be able to help - daughter cancelled her sub in Jan but obviously did it wrong and failed to actually cancel / didn’t realise/ has not used the service once since then but NowTV customer service sticking to the letter and not refunding.

  • ultraman_ginger Commander Shep (@ultraman_ginger) reported

    @ForTheWhimsy It's just come on NowTV. I was expecting awful, but that was another level of stupid. It smacks of Jenkins actually being a terrible director who was tightly controlled for the first one, then let off the leash to completely ruin the second.

  • 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.

  • CharlesLemming Charles Lemming (@CharlesLemming) reported

    @windupbird2017 @Twibs1957 @surreycricket Spot on. Touts will have a field day. Great profit margin. Lazy organisers don't care because they sell out. Awful Surrey Cricket website needs some work too. Let's see how many seats are empty Hopefully a great day for those lucky to get tickets. I've bought a month of NowTV

  • exiledyorkist Name cannot be Blank (@exiledyorkist) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam Now having problems on my other TV, but this one is reporting an u known error. Broadband is fine. Just nowtv. Have restarted TV without it being fixed.

  • mwhitfield80 Matthew Whitfield (@mwhitfield80) reported

    there’s no platform on which the NOWtv interface isn’t absolutely terrible, like how is anyone paid to produce it and all the managers think ‘fine’?
