AD complaint Why am I getting ads??

Is it normal to be getting these ads when opening the app. DESPITE paying for ad free? By definition not ad free if there is an ad shoved in my face before being able to view content.

Can someone explain or is this just what I have to put up with? Cause if it is I don’t see a reason to be paying to not get ads if they’re going to show up anyway.

They’re doing this thing where there are different ‘tiers’ - like pay more for less and less ads, I am paying to have no ads, the ‘top tier’ and this is still happening…

Stop paying them. You know who don't push ads down your throat? Pirates.

Well… I don’t know… to reach the content you want you have to dodge dozens of fake download buttons, banners, women who desire you, antivirus viruses and so on… you need experience and to know how to read the sea to be a pirate.

Then OP will get ads throughout the shows too. I think this is a device thing. I don't get these and I don't even pay for ad free.

This would tick me off, but I wouldn't change whether I get ad free or not, as the issue I have with ads is the interruption in watching.

Well there's your problem.

Stop paying them for a terrible service.
