  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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’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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

    @nowtvhelp Why do I need to spend time on the phone, get transferred between departments, and then get cut off (it’s happened before)? Customers should be connected automatically after having broadband installed, without having to ask. I’m tired of calling NowTV, worst customer service!

  • PeteAR91 Pete R🌹 (@PeteAR91) reported

    @nowtvhelp hi. Can you please advise on what devices can you stream midweek, Championship red button games on nowtv. Would it work on an Amazon firestick or Chromecast? Thanks

  • JessicaAutiero Jessica Autiero (@JessicaAutiero) reported

    @NOWTV I gave you enough time to rectify the issue, 30 days is more than sufficient to cancel the account.

  • ellagill_ Ella (@ellagill_) reported

    @NOWTV possibly the worst entertainment subscription ever. Impossible to use and impossible to cancel. Stop charging my account!!!! 😤

  • L_Janey84 Laura Crawford (@L_Janey84) reported

    Hey @OpenreachHelp apparently its your problem and an issue with your employees that have meant after 3 weeks we still have no internet with @NOWTV and are spending 100s of pounds on data to work and homeschool.....

  • DGisSERIOUS Danny Gold (@DGisSERIOUS) reported

    @Henry_Langston ******* vice, still getting paid off my work. I need to see some $$$ or I’m going to go full Chappelle on NowTV

  • Tonysmini Tony (@Tonysmini) reported

    @Benjicrawf86 @OpenreachHelp You need to ask NowTV to find out what the delay is, they have escalation systems in place to chase up issues like this. It could be something as simple as an address mismatch.

  • dave_hall_85 Dave Hall (@dave_hall_85) reported

    @NOWTV ordered a brand new tv stick off amazon. Arrived yesterday and it doesn’t work! Gets stuck on the pairing remote screen. Have been on all the forums and they say that this is an issue on some devices. I think the remote is faulty. How do I get a get a new one sent out?

  • guptakmayank Mayank (@guptakmayank) reported

    @NOWTV Hi Team, I have placed order for Now TV broadband but my order was cancelled after few days. I am not sure why, I contacted your customer services but they do not know either why the order was cancelled. Can you please help ? Thanks

  • _mallory1_ Mallory (@_mallory1_) reported

    This is such a first world problem but it's infuriating that the NowTV app doesn't autoplay the next episode and let you skip opening credits. Oh and the subtitles keep disappearing 🙄 If anything they have is available on netflix I'll choose netflix every time @nowtvhelp @NOWTV
