skyshowtime.com Reviews 

I subscribe in Budapest. The programs are good but the buffering is terrible. I have 1gb service so my home internet is very fast. This means the buffering is coming from the provider. I have not t made it through a single program without it freezing. Sadly I will cancel.

Worst streaming app in my Sony tv. The app cracks if trying to skip recap on series, jumping ahead, returning a few scenes, lags and image problems when playing a show and navigating to the menu at the same time. All the time I need to re start the tv and not cluck anything unto the app but play into the show to work.

Hate, hate, hate commercial trailers, between episodes, while paying 10$/month, and I cannot cancel it. Will have to un-subscribe!

They offered a 50% lifetime discount to the early adopters. Later, they differentiated standard and premium subscriptions and hid the 4k resolution behind the premium plan. After being a loyal subscriber for years, they refuse to transfer my existing discount to the premium plan. HBO Max did this in seconds. They are amateurs in the field. The support team loves the meta language in their responses. For the love of God, stop using it! Be honest and transparent, and say we don’t care about retaining loyal customers; that was just a bait-and-switch method we used to generate a starting user base.

I subscribed to Skyshotime solely for the purpose of watching the series Madam Secretary. Unfortunately, I was extremely disappointed to discover that the final season (Season 6) does not include subtitles in Bulgarian. This omission makes it impossible for me, and likely many other Bulgarian users, to properly enjoy and follow the show.
I reached out to your live chat support for assistance, expecting a reasonable explanation or resolution. However, the experience was highly unsatisfactory. When I asked how your platform can market and sell services in Bulgaria without providing full access to content in the local language, your support agents were unable to offer any explanation or solution. To make matters worse, the conversation was abruptly discontinued without any follow-up or closure.
I must point out that the overall quality of your platform, both in terms of content accessibility and user interface, falls short compared to other streaming services I have used. I feel that I did not receive the quality or completeness of service that I paid for.
I sincerely hope you take this feedback seriously and work on addressing these issues for future users. At the very least, I expect a formal response to this complaint and an explanation of how you plan to rectify the lack of local-language support for advertised content.

Am I paying Premium to see ads interrupting the show??
Do not buy

Even though I have a premium plan, my TV (LG C5) won't display HDR10 content. The video descriptions state that this mode is available. After contacting support, I was asked to take videos and photos. They replied that the problem was with my TV, even though HDR content plays flawlessly on every other platform (Disney, Amazon, HBO, Canal Plus).

Scam, we bought standard pack without ads, but there are ads.

I had a Showtime subscription for over a year, but I am very disappointed.
Compared to other platforms, it performs very poorly and can't keep up with the competition. It has weak content, almost no series have all the seasons, and most importantly, it doesn't allow viewing unless you have the latest equipment.
The app is available only on a few TV models, and there’s no way to stream content from an older computer or smartphone.
The promises that this functionality will be available soon are just empty promises.
I canceled my subscription and I really do not recommend it.

Great content , and great support team, all you need

I ended the cooperation. Horrible, impossible to quit ads / promos before each program. I asked tem to stop it in my Premium scheme - it was expected to be clean from any unskipable brakes. They said no, so if they don't care on me as a customer and the quality of my experience I don't see the point to pay them. One thing which bothers me is that... we are in the Customer Experience era and there are companies which still don't see a connection between happy customer and their icome / profits. Shame.

Even on the highest price tier, the service is full of unskippable ads for their other shows.

Lürt med lürt

Unfortunately, not a single film is available in German, or even with German subtitles. My English is good, but it's too tiring to watch the films only in a foreign language.

It was fast, professional, understandable and clean problemsolving

This is the worst of all the streaming services. The iPhone app crashes, and doesn't remember location. What you have watched doesn't syn across devices.

The web app (if you watch it in the browser) will randomly skip to the end of next episode when switching to the next episode, or change language to Estonian or Spanish (I watch in English). Subtitles will disappear, or randomly switch to another language.

They say that your subscription doesn't have ads, then show unskippable 15 second ads before every play. Did you start the wrong episode, and skip ahead to the next? Another 15 second commercial, in addition to the one you had to just watch when starting the wrong episode. Did the web app crash just after you started an episode and watched a 15 second commercial? You win another 15 second commercial.

They have canned responses they leave on reviews in App Store, where they claim that they do not show commercials, only trailers in some instances. They are lying.

I would not recommend them unless you really want to watch something - then I'd binge it and get rid of this awful, awful service.

This bad streaming service has started with 15 seconds unskipable adds (for their own content) even if you are a premium user. Avoid. I guess they don't want paying customers any longer.

This will always be the only app lacking behind all other streaming apps. I will be running 4K content with no problems on Netflix and switch to Skyshowtime which will struggle to even open up. The rare occasion the app manages to open it will automatically downscale all video to 180p and then still struggle to handle it and lagging and freezing constantly.
This app is a joke

Horrible forced ads and commercials of shows and films we have already watched. After paying for a standard sub without ads.

And SkyShowTime lied in their reply: "contains a limited number of Promos of SkyShowtime content"

NOT LIMITED, they always show you trailers/promos at the start of every episode/film regardless of whether you already watched the other promoted film/show in question, with no option to turn this horrid stuff off.
