    @PrimeVideo prime still hasn't fixed the Thursday night football issue when viewing starts mid game. I have the option to start at the beginning but it always just goes to live stream. Very aggravating to see the score and it takes forever to rewind the game manually.

    @iVishnuManchu @PrimeVideo Just got 30 days free trial to Prime for a purchase (item not available elsewhere) and THEY STILL want me to buy the movies I wish to see. My free apps contain everything free on Prime. Getting rid of it before 30 days, $14.99 a month for NOTHING, didn't help shipping either lol

    @PrimeVideo Such a failure you guys are. No quality movies r coming on #PrimeVideo . Evrything u upload is garbage. And in lieu of that you raised yearly fees as well. No doubt u see a deep decline in your members soon.

    @PrimeVideo stream was terrible tonight. Tried five or six different times to watch the game before giving up. No problems with any of our other (YouTubeTV, Netflix, Disney+) streaming services. Do better!

    @FANologyPV @PrimeVideo @ThePeripheralPV (Indulge me 🙏 please) I have prime & twitch but the Watch Party eluded me. I know twitch generates a JOIN Link when I host such, for people to join me, but couldnt find a proper link and it doesnt appear in previously broadcasted Watch Parties on twitch. Help for next ones!

    @PrimeVideo Hey Amazon you should stick to packages and give up the NFL terrible broadcasting. About to give up watching way to much buffering... watched better broadcast in 1977

    @mcdermott @PrimeVideo I was there tonight. There was zero energy in the stadium. Doesn’t help that after 20 years of success Patriots fans became whiny cry babies overnight now that they’re mid.

    @PrimeVideo @ONEChampionship Literally cannot search for a single movie on your app. Search bar is actually broken, and on every single platform. I can search for a movie you literally advertise on your homepage and it'll say "No Results Found". What the hell?

    @ThePeripheralPV @PrimeVideo All these people that are saying that E8 was fantastic or good, must not have watched what I just did. I was terrible and I’m a SiFy junkie. The last to episodes were really clunky! I was into it at first but I don’t even care to know when season 2 starts or if there is one!

    @PrimeVideo Forced English Subtitles (foreign language parts that should be subtitled in English) are not working for THREE PINES. I've tried watching on multiple devices and there are no subtitles for just the French parts. It's either all or nothing for subtitles.

    Worst thing is, it shown I haven't been charged but money is deducted. Don't ask me to be patient, as I had to cancel put my plan to help poor students, which is still a firecry in my mind. Please either provide me @PrimeVideo sub or refund me the money at the earliest. 2/2

    @PrimeVideo Please fix "continue watching" on Roku. I'm begging you. Re-watching series for the 2nd+ time is completely broken. I don't get why you insist on making your UX a garbage UX. Please pass this along to QA. I'm glad to help isolate the problem.

    @NFL needs to find a new Thursday night carrier or add an additional broadcast on NFL Network because @PrimeVideo is terrible. Poor quality. Choppy video. Every other service seems to get it right.

    @ericmontonio @PrimeVideo I never understand the DIRECTV haters. I have had it for years and I never have an issue. Sound and picture quality is great. These Amazon games are awful. The picture is not as crisp and the sound stinks. Please tell me Amazon doesn’t replace DIRECTV.

    @LisaScottoline @PrimeVideo The last version was awful. I hope this one is good. I LOVE Gamache and am listening to the new one right now.

    @amazon @PrimeVideo So I want to pose this point to you, if u get a gift this holiday season. Make sure u ask the person that got it for you their order number, tracking number, or email. Why is this? B/cthey won’t help you with anything. Period. If not.#awkwardamazon #cxdecline

    @ChloeGMoretz I've seen all of season 1. I'm just waiting for the word that season 2 will be green lit. Come on @AmazonStudios and @PrimeVideo. Give us more of #ThePeripheral. I need my fix of Flynne and Wilf.

    @mcdermott @PrimeVideo Fair. This is the first Thursday game I’ve actually watched in a long time. The quality of the on-field product and the presentation is definitely lacking on Thursdays.
