YouTube TV and their little battle with Disney has taken his toll on us the customers. And YouTube TV makes no adjustments to the bill even though you dont have any more channels.

Resolved: Upset about ABC

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
YouTube TV - Upset about ABC
Updated by user Nov 18, 2025

Partial refund… and we got our channels back, thank you Very Much. I’m a very happy customer now:).

Write an email and be specific about what it isThat you are wanting. Don’t use curse words and don’t talk down to anyone. Write the letter as if you are asking your favorite person in the world for something. I was going to say mother or grandmother, but some people are very disrespectful to their family members.

So sad.

Anyway, that’s just my two cents. Thank you again for giving us back ABC:).

Original review Nov 03, 2025
The stupid thing took me to a GOOGLE ADS and said that was all it could help me with. It was ALL automated so as per usual in these situations you cant ask a question bc you arent speaking to a human!!!

Its extremely frustrating for a customer like me that all I do is watch TV and go to the doctors. Im VERY upset about losing ABC and now will search for a new company! Just like I got rid of ADT and went to ring! Customer service still matters in this world.

Were still people not puppets. Im sure this wont even get red by anyone.

Anyway, just Jennifer Thurman here on my birthday. 11/3
Have a wonderful day:)

I have been paying $9.99 for YouTube TV, and I have never been able to stream or access the service and channels. This is a rip-off!

It's telling me to start a free trial. Why? I tried logging in, and it is telling me the code doesn't exist. You can verify at your end.

I have not streamed YouTube TV ever, so why are you charging my Cash App/Google Pay? Please reverse the transactions backdated to when it started and refund me. I have been watching the regular YouTube with adverts. I have Netflix, Prime Video, and Hulu subscriptions.

If I am being charged for YouTube TV, why am I not enjoying the benefits? This is preposterous!

Hello, YouTube, Im getting reported that we have a bad YouTube user who is making anti accounts of us and my friends. He is stealing out YouTube profile pictures and crossing them out in a big red X.

The bad name of the user is name Inactive_755. He is a terrible user who is doing bad things to us, and he is making more anti accounts of the users who love Toadette, the character from the Super Mario series. He is bashing my opinions, even my friends as well!

Please terminate the user Inactive_755, and even terminate the anti users that he made of me and my friends! I will tell you who are the names of the anti accounts in the pictures below and please terminate those bad anti users that he made of us that you see in a big red X, including that bad user for doing this to me and my friends (named Inactive_755).

YouTube TV - I want to request for my live streaming back

youtube trust & safety team, I am writing to respectfully appeal the suspension of my youtube channel following a violation related to child protection policies. I sincerely apologize for the content that led to this action.

After reviewing youtube's child safety and protection policies, I understand how the content may have been interpreted as inappropriate or compromising, even though this was never my intention. I deeply regret this oversight and take full responsibility for the mistake. I want to clearly state that I do not support, promote, or *** any form of child exploitation or harmful content. The violation was unintentional, and I acknowledge that greater care should have been taken to ensure full compliance with youtube's policies.

I am fully willing to immediately remove, edit, or permanently delete any content deemed to be in violation of the child safety policy. Going forward, I commit to exercising stricter content review practices, adhering closely to youtube's community guidelines, and ensuring that all future uploads are fully compliant with child protection standards.

YouTube TV FAQs

Winnie Murugi
PissedConsumer Reporter

YouTube TV is a television and movie streaming service. It offers more than 80 channels of shows, regional sports, and news. It is a paid membership with unlimited DVR space and a free trial period. The service supports all gadgets including tablets, phones, and PCs.

YouTube TV FAQs

Users can cancel or pause their memberships in the app on the Android/iOS device or a web browser. It is necessary to choose Membership Settings, and click Cancel. The access to the service won’t be lost until the end of the payment period.

The length of a free trial period may vary for the Base Plan. Extra networks are subject to separate billing terms. The duration of the free trial can be checked by tapping Settings in the app. Following the end of the free trial period, users will be switched to a paid membership automatically.

The Base Plan comes in at USD 64.99 before tax per month. Any add-on networks are charged separately. The first payment day is a charge day. Users are charged at the beginning of each new billing cycle.

It is possible to use the service on three devices simultaneously. Please note that it is available only for devices authorized to install YouTube TV. They include smartphones, tablets, personal computers, game consoles, etc.

To cancel a YouTube TV subscription, go to tv.youtube.com or open the app on your device. Click on your profile photo in the top-right corner, and select “Settings.” Find the Membership button, choose the Manage option next to your membership, and click “Cancel membership.”

The standard free trial for YouTube TV is 7 days. However, during promotional periods, YouTube TV has offered extended trial periods of 14 or even 30 days.

To change your Home Area location on YouTube TV, visit tv.youtube.com, click on your profile photo in the top-right corner, select the Settings option, and choose “Location.” Click the Update button next to the Home Area section, enter your new ZIP code, and confirm the change. Note that you can only change your home area twice every 12 months.

To access the YouTube TV account login page, visit tv.youtube.com or open the app on your device and find the Sign In button in the top-right corner of the screen. Enter your Google account credentials and click “Next” to complete the sign-in process.

To change your YouTube TV payment method, sign in to your account via the app or the official website. Click on your profile photo in the top-right corner, select the Settings option, and choose “Billing.” Click the Update button next to your current payment method and add a new card or payment method. If you signed up for YouTube TV through a mobile carrier or internet provider, you’ll need to update your payment method through them.

You can create up to 6 YouTube TV accounts per household, which allows each family member to have their own personalized settings and viewing preferences. Additionally, you can stream on up to 3 devices simultaneously.

The YouTube TV subscription can be canceled at any time. However, you will still have access to the service until the end of the current billing period, unless you cancel your subscription during a free trial. In that case, you will lose access to YouTube TV immediately.

If YouTube TV isn’t working, you can try to check your Internet connection and restart your router if necessary. You can also clear the cache and update the app to make sure you have the latest version installed.
The specific issues may include Location Settings or Device Compatibility. Ensure your home area and current playback area are set correctly. Check if your device is compatible with YouTube TV, as some older devices may not support the app. Check the YouTube TV’s Twitter account or Help Center for outage reports. If none of the above steps work, contact YouTube TV support for further assistance.
