Cravetv.ca

Crave charges way more than HBO does outside of Canada, and yet hasn't bothered to invest into basic technical maintenance for their site. I can't watch the seasons of some shows because the site doesn't respond when I click on 'Season 1' and when I search for shows I know they have, nothing comes up and I have to scroll to find it. Many of the shows on this site are only on this platform so I don't have a choice but to continue using Crave in order to watch my favourite shows - and it feels like Crave is exploiting that.

With the addition of HBO content, and some recent movies, the content is very appealing... and if you think it through, paying about 20$ isn't too bad for good content.
Problem is, they curiously stop sending monthly "your invoice is coming" just as the price doubles, they don't give you the option to opt-out of the add-on and just go ahead and charge you with it.
They also don't just add content (in the add-on), but use content you previously had access to and put it in that new category... and then as if that wasn't enough, they add yet another add-on (Starz) just a few months later! It seems like each time you open the app and browse, you have access to less and less with the basic subscription! All the while Netflix and the other platforms still gives you a ton of content for the same basic price...

As if it wasn't enough, as others have pointed out, the apps lack features and are glitchy, and the customer service is awful. But it's Bell, so who is surprised?

This was a waste of money. The selection of movies/tv wasn't the best, I found it hard to find a good show. I had a technical issue that I asked to be fixed but I never got it resolved. They took $30 for their HBO and other add-ons. It hadn't worked the month prior so I asked them for a refund because it didn't work. I was told that it had been escalated to their billing department and I would hear back in 3-5 business days, I didn't hear back after 1 week and a half, so I called them and I was told the same thing. I called again after that and was basically told not to call back until they called me. It's been over a month since I called and no money and no service.

Very much behind, technology wise... would be nice to make a playlist, search doesn't work well and for a week, I was watching Blue Bloods seasons 1-9 and got to season 9 ep. 6 and then it's GONE! Only current season on CTV on demand. Very poor selection of entire seasons of shows... same shows playing reruns on regular TV. I have Crave through Bell for the convenience of one bill but seriously thinking of going another route to get more selection, playlist and worth the $$... CRAVE IS NOT WORTH IT! GET WITH THE TIMES!

These Donkeys keep adding "addons" to watch their different programs. $9.99 for basic crave another $9.99 for HBO an Movies and another $5.99 for a Starz add on. You can view all the options and then click on somthing you like, nope, cant watch this, need an addon. They use this method to try an extort you into spending more money to watch. Netflix and Prime are cheaper, and their apps dont suck as much. Staying logged into your account on xbox one is a nightmare. And it crashes often. Sometimes before or, Mid show or right after you watch one episode of a series. Reload and find your series again and hopefully you dont have to log in again. Dont waste your time with this.

This crave is a very money hungry company.
They are not for there customers at all.
I would never recommend them to anyone.

I tried Crave years go to watch an old Canadian show Corner Gas but Crave is so over the top WOKE with it's agenda on LGBT, feminist, gender theory, race theory... that i had to unsubscribe immediately! Horrible! Every show it suggests is LGBT or drag queen...

No company in Canada, perhaps with the exception of Bombardier, is as hated as Bell, and of all the offerings Bell screws up, none are as badly mangled as CRAVE. The service is not only nonexistent, the people at Bell revel in the misery they heap on their customers. They know that CRAVE is a total disaster and they don't care. Why? Because they have a monopoly on a number of the services, awarded them by the socialist a-holes in Ottawa. Think Bombardier. Think CBC. And yes, think BELL / CRAVE. Then think of that snivelling trust-fund brat Mr Dressup, pretending to run the country. It's all one in the same.

I was so excited I got a gift card for crave for my birthday and I spent 30 minutes getting frustrated to the point I called in and was told I wouldn't be able to use my gift card as I didn't have Bell tv. I am not paying 20 bucks a month for a subscription package and they won't even honour their gift cards.

The shows you can actually watch are laggy and stop working constantly. Watching anything longer than 20 minutes is impossible because of the frustration of having to back out to the menu and restart every 5 minutes. The whole point of paying for a service is that it is supposed to be better quality than what you can find to download for free, so that you want to keep paying for the quality. Torrenting episodes is not only free, gut the quality is 100x better than what you get paying for Crave. Most useless, greedy, waste of money service out there. Go for Netflix if you want to pay for quality. You wont get that with your money on this service.

Unintuitive and very difficult to navigate. It's like the UI was created by someone that had never used Netflix, disney plus, prime video, etc... I am unsubscribing until they fix their sloppy product.

Title sums it up. Either the playback is terrible with sound cutting out every few seconds or you can't log in at all. Technical support is basically unreachable.

Bell Media does not give one flying f#ck about you or your problem! They took my $25/mo total with ease, but can't deliver anything and won't return my money!
