What a joke. I completely stoped watching tsn cause of the women telling me about a sport!
First off WOMEN DO NOT WATCH TSN. Period. You have WMBA players dictating sports. Which ABSOLUTELY NO ONE WATCHES THEM! Twlling MEN how a sport was done
Lmaooo. Keep the damn women outta mens sports. They don't attract men to watch. Women dont spend money because you have a. Women announcer Im tired oa someone talking about a sport they didnt play on our level! Thats why WMBA is $#*!! Im done!

I should have taken that extra step and looked up the negative reviews on TSN Streaming before buying the subscription...kicking myself big time! It was $119 for the year and I am getting the FIFA world cup but it doesn't look like there will be any Canucks games televised unless they play the Leafs of the Habs. So that's very disappointing (but then so are the Canucks)
Oh well, another lesson learned...take the time and do the research before signing up.
So far these are my observations both good and bad regarding the TSN streaming service.
- some games are in 576p (maybe ok for my 24" PC screen but not my 65" TV)
- site is very confusing to navigate...it definitely needs work and lets hope they improve that.
- It would be nice if there was the option to turn off the scores.
- TSN says they will air some major league golf events and NFL so lets see how that all pans out.

I am hoping that there service expands to the NHL teams in the West (Toronto is not the centre of the universe) and that there will be more NHL games streamed.

I recently purchased a TSN subscription through the online portal.

Both sporting events I have watched, an F1 race and an NHL game, only displayed in 4K for about 5-10 minutes during each broadcast. The rest of the time I got a highly pixelated, grainy HD signal. See the pic.

When I called TSN support they had trouble even looking up my account. This was in part due to the fact that the agent was located in the Philippines and there was a language barrier. It took over 30 minutes just to get my account pulled up and I had to send screen-shots of my proof of purchase and read my CC info over the phone for verification.

They then tried to say that there must be some issue with my TV or internet. Not buying it. I have a brand new Sony Bravia OLED and a solid 1GB connection and everything is updated. None of my other streaming services have any issues.

I have since submitted two "support tickets" and nobody has gotten back to me in the promised 24-48 hour window. Bell just does not care about its customers.

I did some digging online and this is a widely known issue that Bell/TSN is simply ignoring exists with no fixes in sight. I have now cancelled my TSN service and will never buy another Bell product again, they are a nightmare to deal with. You have been warned.

Paid for a 4K streaming service and got this instead. Support tickets submitted to the Philippines went nowhere. Nobody from tech support contacted me as promised. Bell/TSN does not care about their customers. Service cancelled.

Surprise!
March 30, 2022

I don't have a provider like Bell or Cogeco, all my TV programs come through the internet. NFL playoffs are the only NFL I watch. Two weeks of playoffs were shown on CTV2 which you can only get if you have a TV provider. Now, last 2 weeks of NASCAR were only on CTV2. The internet states TSN has the Canadian rights to NASCAR, NOT CTV I assume CTV is now owned by TSN. Had no heads up that this was coming. Called their phone, before I figured out NASCAR was on CTV2 for the last 2 weeks, and was surprised they answered right away but the person I talked to referred to NASCAR as a game and couldn't tell me why NASCAR wasn't on TSN. Sent an email 4 days ago still no answer.

Disappointing TSN
December 10, 2022

I have never seen such a bad quality and unreliable payed streaming service like I have with TSN. It is horrendous!
By far a lot worst than cheap free streaming you can find in the internet for games.
I set up my tv with ethernet cable Cat 8 category to make sure I'm getting the best quality and consistent streaming I can get and I don't have any problem with other live streaming services, only with Bell owned ones like TSN.

Starting with adds. Even though you pay for it there are still a bunch of adds playing everytime you are watching, not regular tv comercial, but adds you cannot skip.
As for image quality I'd say that around 5% of the time image quality might reaches 1080p if ever, 95% of the time it keeps switching from 480p to 720p. With most of the time being at something like a 480p. It's disgusting really!
Crashes... again worst then free internet streaming. It crashes A LOTl! While watching the world Cup it happens around 10 times or more. Never seen this before. And to top that, everytime it happens it goes back to main TSN page and you need to find what you are watching, when you do you are forced to watch more adds! I'm talking 10 adds or more of 15 secs each for every time it crashes in a World Cup match for example. You don't get that even in free streaming. Shocking!
I'm not even going to start about how bad TSN is as a sporting channel because just that could be another whole topic.

Trying to watch live tennis. We are lucky if we see a completed point without it rebuffering. Very frustrating.

Just terrible, top to bottom. Multiple tech failures, inadequate and outdated streaming software even when not crashing. Worst of all streaming options (SNNOW, DAZN, FUBO) by a country mile.

What Can I Actually Watch?
January 17, 2023

Can't watch NHL, can't watch CHL, can't watch PHF. There is almost nothing enjoyable to actually watch with a subscription. Hope you like Sportscenter and tennis.

Watching the Stanley Cup Playoffs. The constant advertising is absolutely ridiculous. Sports betting is advertised even between whistles. Disgusting!
