    @NOWTV You are total charlatans. I’ve been trying to close my account for months now. I login cancel the passes. Have no passes to speak of but every month, there you are stealing money from my account. The website is a maze, round and round and round, no answers!

    @NOWTV When attempting a “reset” on my NowTV stick, I am getting beyond the internet password only to be told I need to check my hdmi cable connection. There is no problem with that. Solution please?

  • missdawniehick Dawn Hickey (@missdawniehick) reported from Stubbins, England

    Subtitles: I have used many online streaming platforms to waste time during lockdown. @BBCiPlayer @NetflixUK @PrimeVideo @disneyplus @ITV and by far the worst most insaccessible and most unhelpful of them all is @NOWTV @nowtvhelp. The subtitles are incomplete, broken, freezing

  • DJ_Chris_Dee chris dempster (@DJ_Chris_Dee) reported from Hoghton, England

    @NOWTV Any idea as to why I keep getting a PL-0 error message on my Xbox one S? I’ve removed then re-installed the app, cleared the cache and checked the location and dns status-all good! Can’t watch movies and it seems I’m not the only one??

    @timothygood I can and I must. It’s just a case of putting up with NowTV which is the worst streaming service in the U.K. Worth it to see your work though.

  • hblx aitchbe-ellex (@hblx) reported

    It’s hilarious to me that NowTV run trailers before episodes and they buffer in at like 480p and it takes about half the trailer before it crisps up. That’s all on them cos my connection is 1GB. Total garbage.

    Hey @NOWTV Broadband, You first send @OpenreachHelp engineers to visit to fix the broadband connectivity problem, The engineers replace the socket and provide different ADSL cable and take away old one, After few months the problem appears again, (1/n)

  • sjhankinson Stephen J. Hankinson (@sjhankinson) reported

    @ASonNamedBort To be honest I only now watch the 'hits' Netflix have every so often — e.g. Squid Game, Wednesday. I find that Apple TV+, NowTV, and Disney are better quality and value for money.

  • jackshiels Jack Shiels (@jackshiels) reported

    @NOW No 4K or HDR support on NowTV makes this a poor offer. The standard package is 720p! 2010-level quality for an otherwise stellar show, very strange. I would subscribe if it was better.

  • LeighBoobyer Leigh Boobyer (@LeighBoobyer) reported

    @CuckooInternet We’ve been without internet for nearly a month in our new flat. Switched from NowTV because of that to you. Got a date of Feb 24th internet confirmed - then what happens? More delays and we’re not told when that new date is. Pls help @OpenreachHelp @WeAreOpenreach

  • lenjoe90 Joe who runs D&D 🧙‍♂️🐉⚔️ (@lenjoe90) reported

    NowTV is the worst streaming service, but unskippable ads on a paid subscription is truly heinous.
