Adverts on Paramount +

[turbohat71]

Well this is rubbish. Dolby Atmos, Vison and HDR only on the top tier. I'd happily pay the difference between the basic tier and the top tier to upgrade. Resent paying the full subscription cost.

@turbohat71 looks like Paramount+ want you to sign up directly with them for that, I'm afraid.

Sky aren't going to give you the top tier free @£10.99  when Sky Cinema is only £10.00

If you require the higher format then you'll have to pay the subscription cost for that tier  @turbohat71

Every time I view Paramount+ it stalls and then fails, normally during adverts, and then has to restart as if buffering problems. It's not signal strength because every other platform works fine. Is anyone else having this?

[turbohat71]

I understand that. 

what would make a bit of sense would be if you could "top-up" to the top tier. Happy to pay the extra. I just begrudge having to take out a whole new subscription.

On what device are you using to view Paramount+, so Sky Q, Glass, stream, tablet, PC etc....

@turbohat71 it would make sense but is up to paramount + to offer that to Sky which seems they haven't offered this option to Sky

Fair comment @turbohat71 even if you were paying ParamountPlus directly you would still have to pay the full amount for the next tier even if you have not used the previous month's allocation no credit is given I'm afraid.

Sky Q via a Samsung Smart TV

It's very strange that we don't have the choice to upgrade and pay the difference to Paramount.

once I finish with Yellowstone (watched all 4 seasons on Netflix but the 5th is on paramount). I'll try and cancel my cinema package. 
ridicules that they changed it (be it Sky or paramount, they're both in this together).

I don't watch Sky cinema anymore so I'd rather not see adverts on paramount and get rid of Sky cinema.

So, after speaking to my new mate Igor at Sky Support for any two hours, basically, Sky's recommendation for losing the adverts and getting it to stream correctly is to take out a further subscription directly with Paramount and pay for their Premium package... alongside your Sky Cinema subscription 🤦‍♂️

...or cancel your Sky Cinema subscription if you've only got it for Paramount+.

Surely a "top up" system will be in the pipeline? There's one in place for Netflix (I pay an add-on for the top tier through Sky). 
I only want the ability to stream Star Trek whenever I want without awful adverts!

When I want that for a particular series I look for a cheap copy on Bluray over on Amazon, No ads and I can whatch when I want as often as I want 🙂 I detest paying for streaming services 😞

[turbohat71]

I've got them all on BluRay / DVD. It's the convenice of being able to stream and watch on an iPad. (Especially in HDR with Strange New Worlds.  I'd pay £5 "top up" for the convenice but a whole new subscription is too much.
