    @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

  • 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’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

  • 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’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.

  • 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

    @TheGadgetShow @jonbentley90 I only have problems with Apple devices not connecting to wifi randomly on occasions, even when streaming devices have no issues (I.e. NowTV). Can Jon do a special on that?

  • cruisegle David (@cruisegle) reported

    @virginmedia is there an issue in the #Petersfield area? Moved to yourselves a month or so ago after issues with @NOWTV #broadband. Yours is even worse. Drops everyday and for two days I've hardly been able to get on. Work from home. No chance!!!

  • anj_s96 hugh jetiddies (@anj_s96) reported

    @jennifer__pyne NowTV!!! (If you want I can DM you my login if you don't have it)

  • DigitalGriffter Digital Griff (@DigitalGriffter) reported

    @plex Once installed, the Plex app works with secured connections again, the Samsung Smart Hub App store works again, and you don't get certificate errors when using apps (e.g. @NOWTV)

  • ZeeshanSomji Zeeshan Somji (@ZeeshanSomji) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam You actually showed it in the end but only when accessing NowTV through a smart TV. I tried to access it through my laptop or iPad and it didn’t work. That doesn’t sound like a sky issue. Please advise.

  • MrPeteEdwards Pete Edwards🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 📷 (@MrPeteEdwards) reported

    @PaulHusband_ @NOWTV Well that is my issue with Sky as well , and the sky app.. ads all the time. Netflix and Prime don't do it.. it's so , so.. old hat

  • julesspaceman Julian Lane* (@julesspaceman) reported

    Arrrgggghhhhhhhh!!!!!!! WHY DO I DO IT. Every time, every single time, @NOWTV is ******* ****. £10 on a day pass And they NEVER work.

  • domdomwatson Dom Watson (@domdomwatson) reported

    Terrible streaming quality and buffering for the Man UTD Liverpool game on ps4. not a speed issue as everything else is fine. what is up? @SkySports @now #nowtv

  • helpmab0ab Maggie May (@helpmab0ab) reported

    Looking for help from the Twitter family: if you have a NowTv app on your TV but don't subscribe can you use someone else's login on your TV or only on a phone or tablet?

  • NiksGarments nikpmuP Horne 💙 (@NiksGarments) reported

    Hi @skytv I’d like to be able to get Sky content in better quality than NowTV. I don’t want a dish (recently got rid of one that was in danger of falling off), so I guess that rules out SkyQ. I don’t want a new tv, so figure that rules out Sky Glass. Do you have anything for me?
