Updated by user Feb 01, 2026

Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with full refund. Tried to contact starz was sent to just answer with a fee.

Disputed with bank. Contact your bank and dispute charge.

Rcvd FOUR charges due to Google's NEGLIGENT billing practices and STARZ EQUALLY incompetent assistance.

AI Highlights
  • - STARZ chat gave crickets and no verify email.
  • - Cancelling after accepting a Google offer triggers PLEASE DON'T GO prompts but no help.

Requested assistance from STARZ chat, nothing but crickets on the chat, no notifications that they sent an email that I needed to 'verify' to move forward. NOTHING!

BUT! when I go to cancel, as I'd accepted an offer through Google, THEN I get PLEASE DON'T GO's! and offers all over. But still, no service response.

GOOGLE, as I've already accepted, and NOW need to cancel, is NOTORIOUSLY HORRID!

It doesn't matter if you've NEVER used the product or not, or if it's your money, FORGET IT! Once they have it, it's theirs!

Loss:
$12
Pros:
  • Are very good
  • Shows that are good
Cons:
  • Zero customer service
  • Limited content

Preferred solution: Full refund

User's recommendation: Sarz possibly.. Google, S long as you don't give them $$

If you wont to talk to someone it is a 2nd party who you have to Pay $9.95 an do that by Chat I choose not to because they don't work for Starz an I know they are limited as to what can do for you(Done that w FB an a waste of time an money) Never again will I ever do that

Original review Jan 25, 2026

Nothing happened. No answer.

It is not 24/7 like they said.

You need a better call center that can do the job 24/7. ????

Pros:
  • Have good programming

Preferred solution: Deliver product or service ordered

User's recommendation: If your 24/7 then the call should have been answered

I sent an email in December and detailed everything. I received a vague response, I responded to that email and my issue was resolved.

I was refunded. Hope this helps.

  • - Video won't play after ordering.
  • - I started a chat and got no response, and I was told I'd receive an email within 48 hours, but it's been 96 hrs.

Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with full refund. Payment was refunded.

Reach out several ways and see what happens. If you haven't heard anything by the second week, you may want to dispute it.

Original review Dec 12, 2025

I ordered the service and when I tried to watch it less than 2 hours later, it didn't play. I started a chat and got no response.

I received a message that I would receive an email within 48 hrs.

96 hours later, and I'm still waiting. The service is trash!

The customer service representative was very thorough. However, my issue could not be resolved through no faults of his.

I am trying to get on my massage channel Ian could not sign in

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I have a smart TV. I am trying to sign into Starz and could not sign in.

I have been trying for two hours. I've spoken to representatives on the phone. I still cannot sign into my Starz account. Please, I need your help.

Call me back at 978-690-****. I need to be very quiet because my family is sleeping upstairs.

I've tried over and over again. I put my email address, and it says there is already an email address for the Starz account, but I put in my password, and it's not letting me sign in.

User's recommendation: I really don’t have anything to say I just want to get into my stars account to watch my TV series
