BBC iPlayer won’t open on Now TV stick

I’m trying to use the BBC iplayer app on the now tv stick and for the last two days I get an error saying the was a problem loading iplayer this is normally an intermittent fault so try again. 

I’ve tried again! Deleted the app restarted the stick, reloaded the app. Checked for software updates and still no luck. 

Any ideas?!

I have exactly the same problem and have returned the stick and got replacement but still the same message. iPlayer works fine on my fire stick.

Anyone know why??
