    @brettashtonsj @paramountplus Is this a parody account? You feel like a parody account. I have trouble believing that someone can have such a poor level of comprehension without trying to pull one over others.

  • CeliaSwink Celia Swink (@CeliaSwink) reported

    @paramountplus you people are horrible! I have been trying for two days to get technical treating help and hold times are 45 minutes or more and I sent a message through Instagram almost two hours ago!

  • danksrq Dan Kriwitsky (@danksrq) reported

    @paramountplus Why is it I can stream every other service, but Paramount+ keeps freezing up on my TV? Plenty of internet speed. Netflix, Peacock, Pluto, no problem. I can stream dozens of "LG Channels" for hours.

  • UshanDeRonin Ushan. (@UshanDeRonin) reported

    Every time I watch #TheLastOfUsHBO I can’t help but silently curse @paramountplus for how they butchered #Halo in the name of videogame adaptation. Won’t forgive that one ever.

  • Antoldi Michael (@Antoldi) reported

    @paramountplus why does it feel like I’m watching advertisements instead of 1923. Please fix

  • SandyLA3179 Sandy La (@SandyLA3179) reported

    @FatTamScoop @YandR_CBS @paramountplus So sick of Diane’s smirks and Jack just looks the other way. He knows what Phyllis is like and always loved her, why is now different if she has always been his one true love. He’s mooned over her for years. Sick of Diane’s “oh my, I think I did a terrible thing” routine.

  • napz4dayz Napz4dayz (@napz4dayz) reported

    @askparamount fix my showtime bundle

  • wvpirate John Taylor (@wvpirate) reported

    @askparamount I got your automated email. That didn't help at all. Could you please give a phone number so I can talk to a real person. Thanks!

  • YCaccia Yvetster 🐾🐕‍🦺 (@YCaccia) reported

    @paramountplus just spent over an hour, most on hold, with customer support. Can't seem to fix the problem of your app on my Samsung TV showing me a Boston MA station WBZ and NOT my local station WCAX from Burlington VT. but my tablet does. Same IP addresses & zip codes.

  • siptherealist Sip (@siptherealist) reported

    @askparamount hi need help with my account refund I never received.

  • motorcitynerds AbbyMotorCityNerds (@motorcitynerds) reported

    I truly dont kno who is at the studios and works on these projects and nobody raises their hand&says this is a terrible idea. just like @paramountplus having nobody in the room to say WE HAVE TO LET THE original voice actor. or how about Master Chief DONT EVER take his helmet off

  • churchtrucks Patty Smith (@churchtrucks) reported

    @dprusino @paramountplus Not my problem and IMO relevant to a group discussion since a simple Google search shows that many people have issues with Paramount+ failing on Fire TVs. And thanks for the tip, but we'd already tried re-installing and the account is just fine as it works on other platforms.

  • SouthJerseyLane ℱ𝓇𝒶𝓃𝓀𝒾ℯ ℒ𝒶𝓃ℯ (@SouthJerseyLane) reported

    @askparamount If I signed up for Paramount+ Premium on my Roku, will my Premium subscription work on all my other devices AppleTV, Fire Stick? If I subscribe to your Showtime bundle, does it matter which device?

  • cousinvinny_ Cousin Vin (@cousinvinny_) reported

    Out of all the entertainment apps @paramountplus has to be the worst when it comes to functionality. #Paramount

  • ConorCoen Conor (@ConorCoen) reported

    The @paramountplus app for the Fire stick is so bad , needs major work

  • diannadenise Princess Dianna, MPH, CHES (@diannadenise) reported

    @paramountplus might actually be the worst streaming app 🙄 despite having great content the app barely works on my smart tv and I couldn’t get it to work on my Mac at all. I can only easily watch it on my phone at this point. Not worth it.

  • BlindTechShow That Real Blind Tech Show (@BlindTechShow) reported

    @ParamountPlus Seriously your app is terrible no audio options for #AudioDescription and you leave AD off every other episode are your employees this stupid that they can’t do a simple double check for an AD track before releasing an episode

  • KAErk Krissy (@KAErk) reported

    @askparamount I keep getting the error message “Oops! This video isn't available outside your country.”When trying to watch anything on your app on TV w/ the Firestick. I’m in the US, watching US shows. Only fix is to force quit the whole Fire Stick every time! What is going on?!

  • elmcreative McGill (@elmcreative) reported

    @AskParamount Streamed Picard season 3 and the color and brightness are washed out and dull. I streamed using my LG OLED via the Prime App. All other prime apps, Netflix, and Hulu streaming the color is great. I tried changing my tv color specs but that didn’t work. Any help? Thx

  • ShelbyKinkead Shelby Kinkead (she/her) (@ShelbyKinkead) reported

    @paramountplus Hey is anybody else having trouble logging onto Paramount+ on their Apple devices?

  • Jimmycullen6 James Cullen (@Jimmycullen6) reported

    @ShelbyKinkead @paramountplus I’m getting an error message on Sky’s platform….

  • krezelak j (@krezelak) reported

    @RedTommy76 @paramountplus Imo S1 was meh and S2 was terrible. As far as S3 so far it's definitely better than 1 or 2 but I didn't come away thinking it was the "best Star Trek ever". It was fine, but I've been burned too many times by "new trek" and am waiting for that episode 3/4 hard left off a cliff.

  • Jimmycullen6 James Cullen (@Jimmycullen6) reported

    @paramountplus still not working on Sky Stream platform 🤨

  • alesbrutal alejandro ✰ (@alesbrutal) reported

    @askparamount hi i need help with an issue i am having !!!

  • dazzle715 Jess (@dazzle715) reported

    @paramountplus Fix your spinning issues. 2 weeks of nonstop buffering 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

  • wvpirate John Taylor (@wvpirate) reported

    @askparamount I am having trouble upgrading to the bundle. Could you upgrade me?

  • FrancoTyrone1 Franco Tyronesaurus (@FrancoTyrone1) reported

    1/2 @paramountplus why is the UI on the Paramount+ app so awful? It often loses its place if a program is paused for a while. The rwd/ffw scan function is an abomination to man that doesn't work. You select a previous time and it'll jump wildly forwards or backward. Its a mess.

  • tipton_70 Taco Tingz (@tipton_70) reported

    @paramountplus You have the worst app! It stops, freezes and doesn’t hold the place of series or movie! I’ve never had so much trouble watching one show. It restarted not twice but 4 times during 1 episode. Clearly I’m not the only one that feels this way. Deleting subscription #ParamountPlus

  • stevegardner stevegardner (@stevegardner) reported

    @dazzle715 @paramountplus Terrible. They don’t give a rip.

  • BigBlueTrain14 BigBlueTrain (@BigBlueTrain14) reported
