  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

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

    @chris_dudley @NOWTV The analogy doesn't hold though.. the slotted screwdriver could still turn flat screws. The original manufacturer didn't issue an update that prevented the original product from performing its original function.

  • jakedavi5 Jake Davies (@jakedavi5) reported

    @bradday14 @NOWTV I have the same problem. We have top of the range wifi so its a problem their end but they do next to nothing to solve it.

  • showmethefunny4 Trevor Armstrong (@showmethefunny4) reported

    @NOWTV router won’t connect to internet and cat remember login details. What’s your phone number ?

  • layerz layerz (@layerz) reported

    @Heardster @NOW @NOWTV being fobbed off as being an ISP issue atm - funnily enough we watch tons of content in 4k on youtube, netflix and prime without these issues. But 720p F1 - gotta contact my isp when it buffers....

  • WhatZeefuik What Zeefuik (@WhatZeefuik) reported

    @PremierSportsTV @spfl ‘Premier’ I gave up after I subscribed - the quality of the player was dreadful . Kept buffering . No problems other providers ( nowtv and by sport )

  • frankrafferty frankrafferty (@frankrafferty) reported

    @Celtic1967_com I'm actually happy that I've spent over an hour demanding a refund for a NowTv day sports pass that didn't work. Otherwise I could've been watching that shitshow of a game. A good team ruined by **** mgmt, **** board, **** recruitment.

  • johngreenemusic John Greene Music 💙 #FBPE (@johngreenemusic) reported

    @SkySports Trying to watch the Final via #nowtv but the picture quality keeps crashing. This is HOPELESS !!!

  • XboxJT7 JT (@XboxJT7) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam @CharlieLards Everyone is having this problem! They don’t do anything about it 👎🏽 they say it’s my internet even tho I stream Netflix and everything else on 4K with no problem at all. Literally only happens on nowtv sky sports

  • jaspermccrea Jasper (@jaspermccrea) reported

    How is it that, of all the streaming services, the one that I get the absolute worst quality picture with is @NowTV. My broadband provider? @NOWTV

  • GlobalRanger Global Ranger (@GlobalRanger) reported

    @DavidDesu @NOWTV @nowtv Is currently unusable on PS4 and in my case unrecoverable when it buffers every 10min! Video streaming is not rocket science......unless you pay for internet Sky Sports. Subscription will be cancelled shortly!
