Now TV Crashing

Hi Now TV Team, my Sky Sports keeps crashing mid stream, this is ridiculous, please look into it (I have to ask that because judging by your usual form on Apple TV issues you don't) and fix it!  Remember this is a service we all pay for, so my minimum expectation of it is 'provide a constant working stream'.

The reason you may be encountering a problem whilst watching Sky Sports on your Apple TV is that NowTV are currently having technical difficulties their end (see link below).

Its now been doing it for 3 weeks, and still you do nothing.

 

With all due respect to the people who are not staff and keep suggesting things, these suggestions dont work, so please allow Sky/NOW TV to reply.

 

Whats really insults us is you noted it as an issue on notifications, and now removed it without solving it!

 

Its time to fix this, maybe a software update to the app maybe needed, just as a suggestion!

Its only been 3 weeks and its still crashing every 10 minutes or so, feels a bit like being a second class citizen at the moment watching on the apple tv.

 

And Now TV have removed it as an issue from the notifications board, does that mean Now TV have given up on fixing the issue?

Hi @Anonymous User,

 

If you have not done-so already... I suggest you re-boot everything. Including your modem/router!

 

 

Cheers

Mine is doing the same. Crashes every 10mins. Tried all the usual rubbish, seems to be a poor app.

 

Must say spending £30+ every month for a service, plus entertainment & movies, I think the minumum we should expect is a similar service that one can expect with Netflix. Perhaps try and headhunt a few good eggs from there!

 

Shambles.

I'm having a problem on Apple TV as well it keeps returning to the menue every 10 minuites I am trying to watch the game and it's so annoying 

 

tried to get help last week and they gave up after a while

 

when you've paid money you expect some help if things go wrong but it's near impossible to get any

Hi @Anonymous User,

 

With respect, creating new topics about the same issue is not going to escalate a solution for your issue!

With all due respect to you, NOW TV/SKY let you do there work for them (again a disgrae)

 

I want a reply from NOW TV, they are not only ignoring the constant crashing, they are not replying to posts/issues.

 

 

They bank our money quick enough though.

Appreciate your trying to help, but this is an issue you cant fix 

 

I have now had two crashes in the Spurs - Liverpool game - and stll no reply from SKY/NOW TV 

 

I want a refund for the last month of frustration.

 

Are Apple TV customers second class citizens?

@Anonymous User  any chance of merging this with other thread?  Also looking through the Apple board there seems to be a few issues with the Apple TV App.  Folk are having issues with both Sports and Entertainment.   Some are reporting that they can now only see Movie content regardless of whether they have a Movies pass.   I am guessing this is a more serious issue than just a streaming issue and would speculate it may be linked to software updates at Apple.

 

 

@Anonymous User  some people have been able to get round the issue by using Airplay.  I don't know if this is an option for you.

Please take a moment to click thanks or marked as solution if this answered your question. I am a community contributor and pop on when I can.

The movie issue is fixed, SKY SPORTS 1 keeps crashing and has been for nearly a month

 

I will keep making new forum posts until SOMEONE FROM THIS SERVICE REPLIES

 

Its getting very annoying and I am paying for a sub standard middle finger to me service right now!
