Crave Reviews 

Terrible streaming service. The platform seems like it’s using tech from 20 years ago. When replaying a show, there’s no ability to see all episodes it literally just plays the last random part you left off. You can’t fast forward or rewind without an error message. Constantly buffering on start up. Fix the platform!!

I registered 2 days ago to take advantage of the promotion, and I already want to cancel. It keeps lagging, error messages, etc. The problem is not on my side because Prime and Netflix work very well with my Amazon Firestick. I also noticed that the image quality is lower. I read somewhere that when you call customer service they gaslight you saying you are the problem.

We have a lot of streaming services, this is the worst one. Connection keeps dropping, you can't enjoy a movie when it's buffering every 30 seconds. Don't have this issue with any of the others and have a new tv. Will probably be the first to be cut. I'd rather pay to watch things somewhere else, than have them included in the subscription but not enjoyable.

How is it possible in 2026 that we have an app this crappy? The o ly thing missing is a dial tone. What gives, developers?

I would have given you 1 star solely based on this past year's content but based it on the average # of years I've had Crave subscription. I subscribed to Crave in 2021 because of the excellent selection of shows. They beat every network at the time as far as content selection - I even had an argument with a colleague at a work dinner about how superior their content was and bought the 1st month subscription for a friend who felt he had too many subscriptions already and got him and his wife hooked on it! BUT the content has been dwindling over the last two years and this past year 2025 has been particularly bad - AND the past 6 months at least has been absolute garbage content!!!!!!!!! As in offering nothing of value, just recycled low rating shows and super dated movies- almost like they got the lowest throw away content that every other network had no interest in bidding on or acquiring. Every month that went by, I thought give it another month it's got to get better, and then another month, and another month and it ONLY gets worst!!!!!!!! I haven't watched anything on Crave in 5 months. I give up. This network went from having the best content to the absolute worst!! I'm done. Bye Crave - if you don't care, and it is evident you don't given the garbage content you're delivering , why on earth should I continue to give you my money??? - and charging the most while providing the least- shameless gouging!!!

SCAM!!! Purchased Crave on the Black Friday Special. Prepaid for a year. The premium product. The very first time I tried to watch there were problems. Buffering, error messages like 'player cannot load', 'try again'. Phoned them and got a ticket # so they could fix it. They had me on the phone and were asking what I was seeing on the TV. During this conversation the TV gave an error. (New Samsung Smart TV) She said that's weird and told me she would pass this new info to techies. I told them I wanted a refund and cancel my subscription. No refunds are ever given. Read the fine print in the service agreement. They called back and said the techs could not replicate my issues on their Samsung TV. It was my internet connection. NO! I have fibre optic with the fastest upload/download speeds available. I do not have this problem with Netflix. Bell Media Inc/Crave need to have a class action law suit filed against them. People should also contact the CRTC to complain. If this review stops one person from signing up for this crap product; it will have been worth the effort. I am on a campaign to bother their customer service reps as much as possible. I chat repeatedly with their service agents demanding a refund. I like to waste their time. I can sit on my computer and do other things while I waste their time. It always boils down to the same answer. "read the fine print in your service agreement, No refunds" I could understand the policy if they put out a working product, but the buffering is non stop. NOT a good product.

By the way Bell Media Inc.; hire Canadians for your service reps. You like to advertise that you are Canadian but all your customer service reps are "offshore. This was confirmed by 'Carlo James' service rep. The service reps do not use their real names. I am sure 'Jessica May' is not her real name either. I told her it sounded more like a porn star name. Heck might not even be female. DO NOT SUBSCRIBE TO THIS SERVICE. It is not worth the frustration trying to watch programs that buffer repeatedly. Absolutely no stars if possible.

Très mauvais site de streaming, plusieurs bog lors de l'écoute des épisodes mais les annonces aucuns problèmes, de plus, beaucoup trop d'annonce répétitive, quand on quitte l'épisode a cause d'un bog, et qu'on veut retourner sur l'épisode, ça remet des annonces alors qu'ils viennent d'en mettre , problème de réseaux alors que le réseau est très bon et que tous les autres applications fonctionnent très bien. Peut passé la même annonce 6x d'affilé en un espace temps de 45min. Très décevant pour la seule plateforme avec des émissions québecois.

Horrible streaming service.

Over priced garbage.

It's so much work just to find which episode I wish to watch,
Why isn't it an option on the playing show or when you click on the show,I have to click on 4 things and scroll too much just to watch the episode I wish watch! And say it starts on episode 1 when that's over and it auto plays next episode it doesn't go to the next one it skips episodes!. This is not worth the cost

Decided to try crave for the first time. I’ve had it for three days and I’m canceling it. More commercials than old ‘traditional’ tv/cable and constant error messages. I use Disney, Prime, Netflix and Paramount. I’ll continue with those but never try Crave again.

why am i paying for this garbage? Its not working, I may as well go onto youtube and just watch my shows. Waste of money

Abonnement compliqué, pub constante et c’est cher. C’est le PIRE SERVICE DE STREAMING quand je finie Harry potter je retire mon abonnement. Dommage que en plus ça soit canadien quel honte

Subscribed. 2 days later, went to the US and was unable to use the service. No problem... can't access my subscription in the US.

Tried to log in to cancel my account and got into an endless loop of "choose language" and "select a few shows to tell us how to customize the experience" .... no way to access your account even to cancel membership. Got frustrated and gave up.

Got a 2nd month of charges (after not accessing my account the entire month). Tried again ... same issue. Eventually found their phone number... they wouldn't refund even though my account had zero logins the entire month and I called 2 days after the charge. CS team offered no solution or apology. Lost a lifetime customer.

My wife subscribed to the basic subscription but 4 ads is a little ridiculous, Crave is taking a monthly amount from us while collecting ad revenue! Plus for my tv show/movie to black screen with only audio playing is just stupid! I had to restart my app to be able to resume my entertainment and it’s not worth it to be honest!

Crave you need to chill! Cost for ad free streaming is actually abominable...and if you dont pay, have your remote in hand for when all those Ads start cuz that volume?!? WOW!!! I generally have my TV on a low volume to begin with but find myself fighting for my life scrambling to the remote to turn that volume down when the Ads start. Choosing my ear drums over Crave

This site is ridiculous. Even after getting the full premium subscription it didnt let me watch multiple tv series. They all still have little pictures of a shopping cart and cant be selected. Remembering this is with paying for the expensive subscription!! This site is full of shit !

Shitty Bell App. They have the audacity to tell me that my TV is too old to support. 2018 Samsung! Right now i am going to buy a new one, so Crave can support it. May be they are in the bussiness with Best Buy. Only keep away other american apps from the canadian market, useless Bell, i hope they go out of bussiness

I miss the old setup. Too many pages to go through. My sister renewed the app and we are canceling Crave. Too much effort to find a show through scrolling.

Terrible streaming service half of the movies are in French and they don't have the best selection! I don't recommend this streaming service to anyone for $22 a month for one of the worst streaming services out there is why they have such low reviews

I have been a crave client for over 6 years on an annual plan and at the renewal date, they change my membership to monthly instead of annual. I have to call each time and ask for the monthly chrages to be waived. The agent repeats constantly the same verbage. Need to ask for a supervisor from Canada to call every year.
