OTT Horror: Netflix, Prime, Hotstar Cheating Users?

Mirchi 9 9 months ago

Subscribers across different OTT platforms are facing major issues from platforms like JioHotstar, Amazon Prime, SonyLiv as well as Netflix.

Netflix subscribers have taken the matter to X to complain about the "home device" restriction issue, which often locks them out despite being a member of the family and a loyal user.

Prime Video, on the other hand, has been showing ads after every one hour of content then six minutes ads. Which has been a legitimate issue for Prime Video users. After paying the annual plan, they are asking for more money to get ads for free streaming, on top of that they are putting major good movies on rent, which they can access with extra money.

From the very beginning, JioHotstar has been the epitome of issues, starting from millions of ads which come in between the content, even now they have started showing ads on the offline content.

During the cricket match, the audio and visual problem was the major issue JioHotstar faced.

SonyLiV is having enormous technical glitches as they are showing "Account Blocked" in many cases.

What is more surprising is that these are not isolated incidents.

Many users with stable internet connections and updated apps are still facing consistent technical glitches..

The part which frustrates the majority of the audience is the silence from the platforms, they do not respond to the subscribers complaints or even if they do they direct them to a customer care link which is fruitful most of the time.

With the clear rise in content consumption and subscriber based entertainment, these OTT giants need to evolve and invest more time in it.

At a time when viewers expect smooth, on-demand entertainment, consistent streaming failures can quickly test their patience.
