  • zombie2354 k (@zombie2354) reported

    @paramountplus Your app is advertising the Cowboys vs Patriots game but is showing the Raiders vs Broncos. Is it an app issue or are the games region locked?

  • dezdecaydance Devahl May Care (@dezdecaydance) reported

    @IiiGies @paramountplus I’m having the same problem

  • chuckTesta418 Daniel Muir (@chuckTesta418) reported

    @paramountplus after weeks of support I still cannot stream live tv on any device besides my PC. The only thing their support says is to restart the device. Truly awful experience with Paramount+

  • kachowabunga rosalind (@kachowabunga) reported

    @paramountplus gotta be one of the worst streaming services i have ever signed up for lmao why did everyone decide they need to do their own streaming service without having good enough tech to run it 😭😭

  • TJ40in1975 Todd (@TJ40in1975) reported from Euless, Texas

    @askparamount Can you please explain to me and correct this issue. The second week in a row I’ve attempted to watch live TV(NFL) and the screen is behind the audio? I’m hearing plays that are not on the screen yet

  • StacheStudio_ Gianni J Donofrio (@StacheStudio_) reported

    @paramountplus @KateBeckinsale Fix your live stream please. I only pay for your bullshit service to watch the browns and now you can’t even figure that out

  • mommaveex3 Velvet Drax (@mommaveex3) reported

    @paramountplus why can't we watch the redskins game? On every device it is a black screen. This is ridiculous! Wtf? Seriously? It's football season!!!! How the hell is this not working????

  • JuventusFC05 ADP10 (@JuventusFC05) reported

    @JuventusNation The app doesn't work on my phone and it's coming in choppy on the computer. @paramountplus fix your ****!

  • EssentialTutor Dominic Rio (@EssentialTutor) reported

    @paramountplus This streaming service is complete nightmare. There are audio problems with Serie A all the time and my NFL freezes constantly

  • KMick311 KMc 🍥 (@KMick311) reported

    The first time the Patriots are available to watch in my area on a Sunday afternoon, and @paramountplus is not working. Gotta watch it on my laptop like a savage. Why am I paying for this? Maybe when payment is due I say, “Sorry, the bank account is temporarily unavailable.”

  • ventimocha All advertisers will be muted (@ventimocha) reported

    @vanwilder83 @paramountplus It's **** on PS4 too, there is no help for a poorly released product

  • flockalaflamme 🪤Kyle LaFlamme🪤 (@flockalaflamme) reported

    Nothing like paying money for an app that can’t even properly run and doesn’t even work to watch football on Sunday. Fix your **** @paramountplus @CBS

  • BigHeadTales Bighead Tales - Vaccinated & best 5G service ever! (@BigHeadTales) reported

    @askparamount @SamsungSupport This is what I get when I try to install @paramountplus again in my TV. Reset Smarthub Reset TV Added USB stick Unplugged Reset network hub How do I fix this?

  • thepajamablogg1 thepajamablogger (@thepajamablogg1) reported

    @paramountplus @kingstown @JeremyRenner STOP WITH ALL THE ******* ADVERTISEMENTS FOR PAID SUBSCRIPTIONS... 30+ minutes of advertisements for a 45 minutes show is ******* ridiculous.... ALSO, fix your GLITCHES... I go off the app for 3 minutes then it restarts ALL the advertisements after I've already paid for them. wow

  • pastorconpina Tacos al Pastor (@pastorconpina) reported

    @LoftierExponent @CBSSportsGolazo @paramountplus Nope, that's not true. ESPN have the rights until last season same also in Continental US, the problem here it's that we don't have the Paramount Plus app service. But we have Peacocks, Espn and all of the rest streaming apps

  • needcaffeine Clarke Thomas (@needcaffeine) reported

    So @paramountplus crashes my older Roku & gives an error on my LG tv. What type of ****** system is this & yes I reset my router & unplugged my tv for 30 sec. All Ethernet too.

  • DanielEfton DanielEfton (@DanielEfton) reported

    The @paramountplus @Xbox app is complete garbage. The lag is terrible, the captioning format is black text alone and illegible. Casting is a better option but controls in the iOS app are difficult to get to if you multi-task. Big improvements needed in quality or content quantity

  • mattiaerre Mattia Richetto (@mattiaerre) reported from Brooklyn, New York

    @paramountplus why I cannot stream the current @SerieA_EN match from my phone on my tv? All the other sports/channels work just fine 😔

  • AlexStr68524681 Alex Strickland (@AlexStr68524681) reported

    @paramountplus Please no one spend your money on this pathetic streaming service, it literally doesn’t work half the time. Bunch of clowns trying to scam people over here

  • megcetera Megan B. (@megcetera) reported

    @paramountplus please fix your live TV streaming! Getting nothing but a blank screen to watch the NFL on CBS which is the onlyyyy thing I’m paying for!!

  • jorisdg Joris de Gruyter (@jorisdg) reported

    This whole live streaming TV by @peacockTV and @paramountplus and @espn plus is terrible. I understand they have regional contracts but if the stream just shows what I can get FREE over antenna, what’s the point? Also, transparency about schedule and availability would be nice!
