Live tv not working

When I put live TV on my TV all the channels are green and scrambled, it doesn't buffer but won't clean up. I use the app on my lg TV.

Same issue here.  Last few days.  Green pixelation as per photo.  LG TV, have done the turn off TV, WiFi, updated firmware, apps.  Typical issue less than a month after subscription! Hoping for an ETA soon

(I have the problem on my LG Smart TV for the last few days)
Just a wild guess:  Now TV have changed the format of their live stream to use some new encoder/decoder that is incompatible with older TV hardware. That's progress folks.

Relieved to have found this thread and discover it’s not just me. Let’s hope for a swift resolution.

@BenDuck Had a email from NOW help this morning as follows:

Meanwhile we appreciate your patience, and we’re sorry for any inconvenience. 

Let's hope that the fix arrives before the end go the season!

This is a shambles! It's over a week (for me) since the problem arose. Will NOWTV be refunding part (or all) of our monthly subscription fees? Over to you NOWTV.

I had this problem too, but as of yesterday evening, I noticed that it was working for me.  Is this good for other people too?
