Get in Touch (all the options, and the best place to start):-

https://help.nowtv.com/gb/get-in-touch/

 

While signed in, follow the path for broadband issues, and you will be offered a telephone number you can call for broadband issues.

Set a Payment PIN on your account so that no-one but you can buy memberships on it. Check your bank accounts monthly for any other unexpected payments to Now. That way you can at least nip them in the bud, while you and Now figure out whose fault they are.
If you take an offer that comes with a ‘free trial’ of Boost or another Membership, Cancel them straight away. You will still get the full duration of the trial, and if you decide you do want to continue with one or another of the trial products, just revisit the Cancel, and UnCancel it.

Been through all the options, ending up by clicking "Live chat".  I am then transferred to a blank page that eventually comes up with the message  "A website is slowing down your browser.  Want to close it?".   I've followed this process at least six times with the same result.  My broadband connection is fine but the landline is not working.  Cannot call out, cannot call in from my mobile.  I cannot find a helpline number anywhere on the website.

Phoning Difficulties

 

NowTV Broadband customers only should be able to ring NowTV, about broadband issues only, on the contact number they can find in My Account/Orders & appointments.

 

Free from your landline, but if that is not available, try from a mobile.

 

Live Chat Difficulties

 

<If you can’t access Live Chat and nothing happens, try a different browser from your usual one (Internet Explorer, Edge, Chrome, Firefox, Safari) on which you haven’t disabled pop ups, third party cookies or indeed any cookies, and haven’t set an Ad Blocker, as any or all of these things may prevent the Live Chat window appearing>

Hi @Anonymous User  

 

I'll send you a PM now for the number to call to get this Home Move sorted. You'll find a wee notification up at the top right hand corner with the message in there 🙂

Make sure the problem is not at your end by using the test socket (otherwise Openreach may charge for the call-out)

Then use the phone number in the post previous to yours.
