    Can @paramountplus please fix the Serie A stream? #atasam

  • Desperado_Dave Desperado Dave (@Desperado_Dave) reported

    @paramountplus This looks like the worst damn thing I've seen all day and it's barely 3am.

  • SeekingAlpha11 SeekingAlpha (@SeekingAlpha11) reported

    @paramountplus There's an issue with your Serie A stream right now

  • dougdaulton Doug Daulton (@dougdaulton) reported

    @joeherbers @paramountplus The most maddening thing is that the commercials always stream PERFECTLY. This is a paid service. Commercials work. Premium content stutters.

  • JADDYYY JAMES (@JADDYYY) reported

    @BandB_CBS @CBS @paramountplus I stopped watching this show when the elf lady and steffi hog the screen with terrible acting. The writers are terrible and the Paris side story with her mother is horrible. What a relief i dont have to watch this show anymore. RIP

  • netty_lang Janette Langill (@netty_lang) reported

    @paramountplus I hate to say this but I'm fed up with the errors I get with every commercial break. With several favorite shows on Paramount+, I'm might have to think hard if its worth it anymore. By far the worst streaming app.

  • TVwithThinus TVwithThinus (@TVwithThinus) reported

    @GlennRunnalls @paramountplus @DStv Hopfully it does. Paramount says they will work with pay-TV distributors in various regions of the world to launch as they roll out further. So maybe hopefully MultiChoice decides to work with them.

  • Azathothservant Kharn the Betrayer 🇺🇦 (@Azathothservant) reported

    @VladimirNagyy @Gray_Fox_Boi @paramountplus Seems like most cartoon sitcom dads suffer from this problem to various degrees.

  • Drexyia87 Drexy (@Drexyia87) reported

    @paramountplus I've only watched ad after ad tonight. I start watching a show and it's fine BUT wait it's ad time I watch one ad and it tries switching to another and can't load it and crashes. I re enter 1 ad and it crashes again. 290mps says it's not on my end. Pls fix it.

  • pburns81 Pamela Burns (@pburns81) reported

    Three days later and live stream still not working. No one from @askparamount or @paramountplus has responded. What am I paying for?

  • coys_fc COYS FC (@coys_fc) reported

    Every. Single. Time. Fix your feed @paramountplus ! #Atalanta

  • kehlarc NC 🇹🇼🇺🇲🇺🇦🌎 #VaccinesSaveLives #VeryAsian (@kehlarc) reported

    @paramountplus This actually made me chuckle. Good work Ad Dept.

  • DawnElicia Dawn Elicia Excited EJ is back. Long live #Ejami (@DawnElicia) reported

    @BandB_CBS @CBS @paramountplus Thomas had no issue when Quinn spiked Brooke’s drink so I can’t see him doing any different this time.

  • Kamenka_exe Kamenka.exe (@Kamenka_exe) reported

    @paramountplus God you’re awful

  • Byron_C137 Neo_San (@Byron_C137) reported

    @paramountplus Cosmos voice sounds terrible lol

  • RevJimmyGawne Rev. Jimmy Gawne (@RevJimmyGawne) reported

    @AmazonHelp No reason to bother at this point; I'm not on a plane any longer. I wanted the episodes for my six hour flight from Raleigh to Seattle, but, well, sucks to be me, I guess. (Side note: neither @paramountplus nor @hbomax gave me any such problems.)

  • iLessObvious Chris Swain (@iLessObvious) reported

    @paramountplus @1883Official Fix your app. Another glitch during commercials on the app and I’m streaming it online at the “free” sites.

  • RSargent5x5 Richard Sargent (@RSargent5x5) reported

    @askparamount I've closed my account and deleted the app. The time to solve the problem was when I first reached out for help.

  • hoopstar245 Kyle Hooper (@hoopstar245) reported

    @GmtkPavel @HaloTheSeries @paramountplus They are and if you have a problem with it, don't watch it

  • healthyblueprnt Belinda Chiu, @ahealthyblueprint (she/her) (@healthyblueprnt) reported

    Hi @paramountplus, your contact us page is not working - is there a direct email I can reach a live support person?

  • mpstreet Michael Street (@mpstreet) reported

    @CBSSportsSoccer @paramountplus The stream is awful. It keeps glitching. Same crap every week

  • Carlton_W1 Carlton Weathersby (@Carlton_W1) reported

    @BandB_CBS @CBS @paramountplus If Thomas don't reveal it he will be in trouble for not telling what Sheila did & Ridge will run back to Brooke old played out *** again. What the B&B writing team love so much about Brooke & Ridge being together. Smh.

  • BitterSweet158 Sugar102 (@BitterSweet158) reported

    @YandR_CBS @paramountplus The Only thing this storyline is telling me, Jack is a Terrible Father Lol!

  • OwenGrady31 OwenGrady31 (@OwenGrady31) reported

    @paramountplus is absolutely terrible. The feed for @SerieA is glitching and a chore to watch. @ESPNPlus was 10000000 times better. #SerieA #football #Atalanta

  • Sports_Soapbox William Pike II (@Sports_Soapbox) reported

    Goodness. The Atalanta-Sampdoria stream on @paramountplus might literally be the worst quality I have ever watched. Cuts off every one or two seconds. Unwatchable.

  • iibrxk3n (@iibrxk3n) reported

    @paramountplus @1883Official Fix your app the constant crashing is irritating as hell

  • DonnaChaffins DonnaChaffins (@DonnaChaffins) reported

    @askparamount @Ykluwer1 Maybe you could work something out so that you can get the rights? Is this something that could be in the works? Many of us would love to start streaming Survivor Australia on Paramount+ again, please! #SurvivorAU #survivoraustralia #bringbacksurvivoraustralia

  • YoshiCookie Yoshi Cookie (@YoshiCookie) reported

    @paramountplus Currently the television show Frasier is broken on #ParamountPlus . All other shows and movies work fine, but this show is broken. It won’t load and only shows a black screen. Please fix this error. #Frasier #Glitch

  • Librumtinia ⚛🦓𝕁𝕒𝕕𝕖🦓⭐ (@Librumtinia) reported

    @paramountplus Can you make the PS4 app ... better? Constant 'something went wrong' 'network error' and just lagging like you wouldn't believe. (And my internet is amazing, so I know it isn't that, lol.)
