Upset about ABC

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
YouTube TV - Upset about ABC

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:)

Whoever the representative was scam me at a $3500. So you tell me what the *** happened

Original review updated Nov 09, 2025

I got scammed. I lost 3,500.00 dollars from one of your team members.

I won't be able to get my money back from my bank because they had me go get cash cards. So who is going to give me my money back?

It wasnt YouTube that ripped me off. It was one of your customer service representatives.

I don't know what happened to it. I'm watching TV and it says that a player came on there and it's not working right, so I would like to talk to a human.

I don't want to text nobody because there's no problem that can't be solved by texting. I want to call somebody.

Resolved: Request for Refund – Sunday Ticket Auto-Renewal on August 1st

YouTube TV - Request for Refund – Sunday Ticket Auto-Renewal on August 1st
Updated by user Aug 21, 2025

Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with full refund.

Original review Aug 11, 2025
To Whom It May Concern,
I am writing to formally request a refund for the recent auto-renewal charge on my YouTube TV account for the NFL Sunday Ticket subscription, which was processed on August 1, 2025.
I was unaware that auto-renewal was enabled on my account, and upon noticing the charge, I canceled the subscription on the same dayAugust 1st. Despite the prompt cancellation, the full amount was still charged to my fathers credit card, which was saved on my profile.
The cardholder is Reginald L.

Sutton (aka Reggie Sutton), and he does not consent to this charge.

His contact number is 704-516-****, should you require verification or direct communication.
Given that the subscription was canceled the same day it renewed and no service has been used, we respectfully request a full refund to the original payment method.
If a refund cannot be issued, we will be left with no choice but to escalate this matter by filing formal complaints with the Better Business Bureau (BBB), the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), and the North Carolina State Attorney Generals Office.
We are simply asking for fairness and a timely resolution. Please confirm receipt of this message and advise us on the next steps for processing the refund.

Teck support

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
YouTube TV - Teck support

YouTube network keeps buffering and long pauses after pausing TV. It says loading for about a minute and a half.

It buffers in every room of the house on every TV for very long periods of time. I tried to connect with tech support from YouTube TV. I tried going on the internet to find them. I tried calling them.

People from YouTube TV kept hanging up on me. They called it dropped calls.

When I finally did get someone, they kind of helped. And I have just given up, and I think I'm going to go to Hulu TV instead.

Pros:
  • Viewing of my local channels library to store then rewatch programs
Cons:
  • Due to the issues i am having if i go to my library and watch a 50 minute program it takes me about an hour and a half to do so due to the issues in question it costs way too much money to not be able to watch youtube tv half of the time

Preferred solution: Easier communication between the customer and YouTube tv. Help when needed. And half of my service fees back. Better service all together

User's recommendation: Don't subscribe to YouTube TV

Can't access channels

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
YouTube TV - Can't access channels

Extremely difficult to contact YouTube TV. I called 3 different phone numbers and it hung up on me immediately.

I tried to chat with YouTube TV and it wanted me to pay $5 to have a technician look into my issue. Are you kidding me? Pay to chat and get help. I'll try to call tomorrow, and if the same thing happens, the 2 years I've subscribed to YouTube TV will come to an end.

Very poor customer service. One of the channels, ESPN, I cannot access that worked earlier this week.

I paid another service so I could watch college football games tomorrow. This is unacceptable.

Preferred solution: Price reduction

User's recommendation: Don’t purchase. Help is poor and customer service is unreachable. I click on an help page and it keeps displaying the same webpage several times. Not helpful at all!

I paid on the 15th of September because they hit my card for it and received the money. They sent an email saying good to go.

Then today I tried to watch it, and my service was paused. Money was taken but never returned to my bank.

I just want to watch my services. Rosita Harris

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.
