This Has Just Been One Big Cluster Fuck
/FTVLive rightfully predicted that CNN+ would be a flop and for the few people that signed up for the streaming service, it is becoming a headache.
The service shut down yesterday less than a month after launching and now customers are wondering when they'll be refunded for the failed CNN+?
"I am a Roku user who was very excited to see that CNN Plus was available," a Chicago-area user told Next TV earlier this week. "Knowing my free subscription ended today (4/23/2022), I cancelled last night (4/22/22). I thought NO WAY would Roku charge me $5.99 for the subscription given there wasn’t even going to be a service, but lo and behold, today I wake up to a charge for $5.99 on my account and a note on my Roku that I still have CNN Plus for another month."
Another use says that he hasn’t even gotten an official word that CNN+ was shutting down. "I also have gotten zero emails about the platform closing or any notification about a refund. I’m half-expecting them to keep billing my credit card. Baffling how they launched with zero plan to build an audience,” Joe Adalian said.
CNN+ will likely go down as one of the biggest failures by a major media company ever.
But, it’s not like we didn’t tell you that this was going to happen.
