Very poor 🤒
We don't know much about how CBS Sports / CBS Interactive handles customer complaints outside ComplaintsBoard, but what we see here, on our website, is quite disappointing. We think there might be reasons for the company's actions (like not knowing about the complaints), and we would be happy to see them among customer-focused businesses that easily solve customer problems. But until that happens, we ask reviewers to be cautious when dealing with CBS Sports / CBS Interactive and using their services, and to carefully read the experiences of other customers on ComplaintsBoard, because who is warned is armed, you know! 💪

CBS Sports / CBS Interactive biased coverage of americans on pga

Myself and several friends who watched golf are furious at the favouritism Americans receive on camera. Several times over the past year players who have higher scores or routine shots are bumping Canadian pro coverage even when Canadians have a better chance to win or are making better shots. I'm using the world golf bridge stone as an example. If you want to keep Canadian viewership your coverage better improve.
Your sincerely

Frustrated Canadian

CBS Sports / CBS Interactive unethical behaviour

I am completely disgusted with Mr. Colbert. His attitude towards our President is utterly disrespectful and un-American. If your network condones this message, I will boycott your network and all of your sponsors. The people of the United States of America made their choice on election day. I ask your corporation to show some respect for the peoples choice. If not, we will show you our disapproval by not spending our money on you or any of your sponsors.
Sincerely,

CBS Sports / CBS Interactive broadcast interruption

You people need to get your act together. The big bang theory is scheduled for 7pm cst and instead you put basketball on. Everyday the young and the restless comes on at 11:30 am followed by the bold and the beautiful @ 12:30pm. Instead, last thurs and fri., you put basketball on. Can't you place basketball on at a different time? Like, late at night! The only good programs that are on, you people block for some dumb basketball game. Who the hell watches basketball in the morning hours? Instead of broadcasting basketball, why not give a news flash about that 14 year old girl that got raped by those two 17 & 18 illegal aliens in the school restroom! I'm sick of having the programs I watch, interrupted by some dumb basketball game. I'm not the only person with this complaint either. Stop this nonsense with the basketball interruptions. You should be glad that people actually watch your station, and believe me it's not for the news!

CBS Sports / CBS Interactive landlord abuse of power

As a 78 yr. Old jewish veteran I can not afford to replace items robbed during burglary facilitated by the corporation that owns 100 apartment buildings master key. Me and another 45 tenats were victimized without forced entry. Includin the manager kevin cooper. After I complained on several occasions I was served with a filed eviction notice after I refused to pay $6000.00 for useless an d primitive heat treatments that did niot work as they do not deter new bugs. The new restaurant that moved in 2 yrs. Ago has the trash cans 5 feet from my window and they are visited b y the homeless 30 times per day. I am also next to the laundry room. After 12 years always paying in time and without any issues, the moment the establishment opened the bugs keep coming in. I supplicated them not to use the heat ridiculed by 2 building inspectors and the health dept. Instead using spray (the sole time it proved successful). Their exterminators always leave early and leave the bujgs in.in order to get payed the blame me producing new ones. I have witnesses as of the entrance of the bugs. Including manager eli dowds, instead I am evicted.

CBS Sports / CBS Interactive disability back payment due to father committing suicide waiting on payment

My father was found dead in his apartment on March 21, 2016. He committed suicide approximately on March 11th and was found later in his apartment. He had been working on getting Disability for almost two years until he finally gave up. His health would not allow him to work anymore due to his uncontrollable diabetes. He had lost half of his foot and was starting to go blind. Previous to filing for this claim he gave 19 years of his life to the Army Corp of Engineers as a Environmental Engineer helping construct many lakes in this area such as Lake Ray Roberts. He then was a environmental engineer in the planning of the Dart Rail System in the DFW area. After being laid off, he then went to work for Denton County Corrections Officer for the last 10 years of his life. He put into the system more than his share and was a good decent honest man. He worked on disability for over two years as his health deteriated over time. He started to go blind and was feeling hopeless and ended his life. As a nurse I know how to file for disability for my patients. His lawyer and the Social Security office gave him the run around and just took his money. His check was finally deposited after he took his life. The check was returned to the payment center and has been sitting there for over a year. My sister and myself submitted the proper forms along with a death certificate in August of 2016. We sat and waited for several months and followed up via phone. Not once did they state that they did not have the day of death. I then went to the social security office in Denton TX to see what was going on. Whom ever processed are claim in August did not enter his day of death. So here we are a year after his passing with still no resolve. I have contact the SS department on a biweekly basis to follow up and each time I am asked did your father pass. I am beside myself and can only imagine how my father was feeling prior to taking his life. The systems is backwards! I have contact Mike Burgess's office to assist in resolving this matter and we seem at a stand still. My goal in this is to make the government aware of all the flaws in this system as well as get the money that my father fought for and ultimately added in him ending his life. Please help in this matter.

Anita That's why it is called abc interactive as people ask for help and the newsstaff should respond with feed back if they would or would not be willing to do a story on that topic. This board is set up for many reasons. Not just the fact that they are a one sided in there news reporting. Not one time e he I heard them ask the Democraticsame why Obama allowed the recording transcript with names be sent around to the intelligence community. Not one time has CBS addressed or ask why did the Clinton close there foundating after she lose the election and what happened to all the money that country's donated. If it was a foundation to help people then why did they open there records to show where the money want to as stated by the government. Why when asking for the information u derived the freedom of information act the Clintonnext will not release the information. Look it is like this even if you don't like Trump those quistions should be asked to the Clintons. Why is CBS covering for the clintons

I can't change the channel fast enough when this Anti Trump, Anti American # comes on. No matter who his guests are, even if I would like to see the guests, I will not watch. I do not condone his conduct every night attacking Donald Trump. Colbert and is disgusting. This show is not entertainment, it is a soapbox that disgraces CBS. I love most of the tv shows on CBS but I will not support this bozo attacking the President of the United States night after night. Johnny Carson was funny and worth watching... he would be embarrassed now.

CBS Sports / CBS Interactive prime time shows

Why is CBS screwing around with prime time scheduling? Madame Secretary starting on the half hour instead of the hour? Last nite, Thursday, Pure Genious - same thing? You come up with some great shows, but you are screwing up the showing time. Blue bloods - # 1 best show ever, # 2- Madame Secretary - tied with # 1, Pure Genious #- 3, tied with # 2.
I'm just going to watch other channels instead of CBS.

I completely agree with this post about your programming getting screwed up on times, CBS needs to get it together with showing programs when they are scheduled and not running other show into them, I hate having to find other ways to watch my incomplete shows or I will become an ex-viewer, there are plenty of other channels on cable.

CBS Sports / CBS Interactive audio noise and interference

I am experiencing a loud humming vibration background noise when tuned to our local CBS HD channel. Local cable provider has indicated that CBS is having an unspecified "outage" of some sort, yet there is no issuance of a notification from CBS, nor does CBS make it easy to contact them regarding technical issues. This issue has presented itself for nearly 3 weeks and is only a problem on the CBS channel. All in home equipment has been checked, rechecked and rebooted with no resolution. Can't seem to get a knowledgeable authority to provide an accurate answer or solution. I am seeking a resolution and acknowledgment from CBS technical support.

CBS Sports / CBS Interactive - noisy background music

Cbs shows in general, but particularly criminal minds, ncis and ncis new orleans, have constant background music. It's annoying, unnecessary, distracting and, most importantly, drowns out the voices and one can't comprehend what people are saying. Even commercials have constant background music. How silly is that?

CBS Sports / CBS Interactive loud background noise

I, too, am fed up with the sound on many (Not all) cbs tv shows. When an actor is speaking, the sound is muted so we can hear the dialogue, but when the actor stops speaking, the background noise rises in volume and is very annoying. This doesn't happen all the time so feel it isn't our tv sound. Other tv networks do not have this!

CBS Sports / CBS Interactive shannon sharpe can't announce a sentence

I must say, after watching football this sunday, listening to him (Shannon sharpe), speak and not being such an educated person, since he can't subject himself putting a sentence together. It bothers me, that cbs with jim brown, would put such an uneducated, nitwit on the air brodcasting his analysis. It's quit obvious, he got out of the ghetto, but the ghetto sounds incoherent and uneducated. Give him some speech classes to train his mediocre brain to give detailed and experience thoughts on game day, november 11, 2011. Seriously, after watching him give his smart of the game, it's really bad. "

CBS Sports / CBS Interactive The Judges offensive comments

My husband and i have been a fan of dancing with the Stars since the get go. It is suppose to be a good, clean family show. However the judges comments last night were crude, hurtful and demeaning to the Stars. The Stars each year devote their precious time to the show. Time away from their families and careers. Insulting them will only lead to the demise of the show as no one will want to volunteer to dance in years to come. The comments in relation to Brynne's chest were very distasteful and went on way too long. Sonia was just as bad with her "speak before you think" comments and the judges cruelty was uncalled for. Brynne deserves an on air apology. It was the first night and my husband and i thought they all did a fantastic job under the pressure and all looked fantastic.

Tony Romo was a pretty decent NFL QB, but serving in his capacity as the color commentator for CBS’s NFL game coverage was a mistake. He is irritating and annoying in every respect. I could and would say more, but I realize these complaints fall on deaf ears, if they’re even read.

He talks incessantly about nothing to do with the game. Please do not have him announce any more Nills games!

CBS Sports / CBS Interactive stay away

I have made several attempts to contact CBSports to let them try to resolve my complaint of non-payment for my winning the Basketball Fanasty League. CBSports does not seem interested in even returning my e-mails for request for payment, it leaves me with no other options but to complain publicly. Furthermore, I have filled out all documentation that is required by CBSports including getting my documentation notarized and I still get no response from CBSports.

So, if you're a fanasty junkie like myself I recommend using Fanball who has a much better record in paying their subscribers on a timely basics.

CBS Sports / CBS Interactive weather advisory interrupting bb12

I am a huge fan of big brother and I have watched every season and without fail every season, jamie simpson interrupts the show with a weather advisory report. I know that the weather is an important thing to keep us updated on especially when there is a thunderstorm or something. But my complaint is that bb cannot be watched at all and that jamie simpson repeats himself ranging from 20 to 40 minutes and takes up the entire show! And to top that off, the report on the weather isn't even in our county, its usually 2 hours away! Normally the storm doesn't even hit either! I cannot afford the live bb feed so we miss it every time and it is very frustrating! Why can't jamie just be put in the corner of the screen and bb still be able to be on the tv? This happens every year, one year I even called cbs to see about putting the alert on the bottom of the screen, but for some reason that couldn't work. These interruptions are causing me to watch another channel and almost making me want to stop watching cbs altogether! Isn't there something that can be done? Please? I would like to watch my favorite show without having to miss over half of an episode because of an update on counties and cities that are hours away and when its not even an emergency and then repeated and repeated! It really does make me not like watching cbs! Could you please figure out something?

There is nothing ignorant about the complaint. For those of us stuck in small towns, normally the stations do the best they can to NOT interrupt the show. If they do interrupt they usually do it for a brief time and then set a ticker. The tickers are easy to set up. They do it in my area. They put a little alert at the top of the screen and flash the counties. Also, for those of us that are in heavy weather areas. We know what things coming look like and keep abreast of the weather online and on the weather channel. No need to interrupt for 30 minutes plus.

CBS Sports / CBS Interactive collect calls

Hey just complaining about ongoing issues that I have had with correctional billing when I use one of the machines is the jail were I pretty much have to call 24 hours after the payment is sent to them then they turn around and tell me that I have to wait another 24 hours for them to find out what the hell happened to my payment. Which is bull # that I have to wait 48 hours in order to have a payment posted to my account which is bull # and then they treat there customers like # and really do not care about them. But the truth is all they care about is taking our money because they know that they are the only company that offers the pre-pay service. I really think that there service sucks but I want to talk to my boyfriend that is locked up and that is the only way I can do it at this time but once I find another way they will lose me as a costomer.

CBS Sports / CBS Interactive audience tickets

This is a repeat of a 2008 complaint. People come in good faith with their tickets to be part of an audience that CBS has no intention of honorinbg. I booked my "ticket" well in advance, drove to LA, left the campground at 5:40 in order to arrive at 7:10 AM for the 8:30 stated arrival time. I was told they were full and people needed to sleep/ camp (not sure whether in the nearby street or on the grounds) to have tickets honored. Yes, I am doing other things in LA, but getting up at 5AM to be scammed was not on the list of fun things to do. Thanks CBS for the memories. You send a reminder email several days before. Maybe you should think about a cancellation email, as proof of your respectful attitude toward your public. Of course you may not have any respect, as this is not a one off occurrence. I will keep looking ofr other forums, so other people will not get scammed.

CBS Sports / CBS Interactive propaganda news ban anti-obama blogsters

Cbs news comments public forum has a controller sitting on their website 24/7 with several nic names supporting himself while posting pro-obama propaganda. He uses the several nic names to support his comments.

He also has control of the board and he will ban anybody that posts facts that don't glorify obama.

This is an abomination for a once respected media entity. I can't imagine what walter kronkite would think of such a scam on a media that he built up for fair and unbiased reporting.

The sound was nauseating on Pure Genius tonight! It's bad enough for years that when my disabled dad talks on the phone I can hear both sides of his conversation - FROM A DIFFERENT LEVEL OF THE HOUSE! So clearly my hearing isn't at issue - yet I have to use closed caption on CBS all the time when they decide the background music/mood music/or whatever they call it that is supposed to generate suspense or other emotions, but when you can't hear the dialogue over it...it's stupid! We litterally set up a short cut button on the remote to turn on and off the closed captions, in a home with no people that are hard of hearing - it seems CBS is the worst case, but the others are catching up! Without the dvr to go back and closed caption, we just wouldn't know what was happening! Enough is enough!

I cannot see some of the programs such as NCIS or The Mentalist because of my schedule. I would like to be able to see full episodes of these programs somewhere. cbs.com used to allow comcast.net on its fancast to host full episodes but then withdrew all of its programming from outside sources. Now, all they show are clips from these shows. Who in their right mind bothers to watch a 30 second clip of a show that they would like to see? Other networks make some advertising money with full episodes, why is cbs.com so slow to see a benefit in airing these episodes? Do they really make that much money packaging them in DVD sets for Christmas?

CBS News runs a SCAM blogspot for comments on news and current events with a controller that bans people that speak out their researched truth about the current administration.

They apparently don't want anybody on their site except Obama or liberal honking synchophants who wouldn't know the truth if it slapped them in the face.

They allow one blogster to have several different nic names who posts propaganda and supports himself who sits there 24/7 attacking anybody with a negative opinion of government actions, who sit there hitting the abuse button until the autoban function kicks in...

They KNOW he does this and have not removed him so one has to suspect that this blogster is in fact an employee of CBS who is PAID to get rid of unflattering-to-the regime blogsters and monitor their board so that NOTHING but propaganda and lies is provided for public consumption...

Nice ACORN internship from CBS...

Why is the background music so loud on ALL the CBS shows? It's HORRIBLE! HORRIBLE!
PLEASE turn the noise down so we can actually HEAR what the cast is saying!

For the last few weeks we hear a humming background noise on all of the shows and news we watch on CBS. We do not experience this issue with any other television station.

I agree with all of the above poster's. I love Code Black, but, it has become increasingly frustrating to watch. The background music and noise are so loud it's virtually impossible to understand the actor's dialogue. I have increased the volume, but, that only makes the background music/noise louder. Please remedy this problem before you lose viewers. Do we need to learn how to read lips in order to enjoy our favorite shows?

CBS is the only network that has background sounds of wind, rustling fabric, traffic rumbling, etc. ( even in indoor scenes!)that over-rides programming dialog...particularly noticeable in Elementary, The Good Wife. Is it cheap outdated sound equipment?

CBS Sports / CBS Interactive distracting background music

We wish to ask cbs broadcasting what purpose it serves to have "background music" on all their programs. Half the time they are louder than the conversation we are trying to listen to. We realize background music has been around for a long time... But this new background "noise" behind the background music is very distracting from the programs and frustrating to the listener. If it continues we will choose to watch another broadcaster... Thanks for listening

I have enjoyed JAG and the offspring NCIS for over 20 years. Lately, the background music is so loud that the dialog (which is important to following the storyline) cannot be heard or understood. I have had thoughts of not watching the NCIS shows in the future. I am in my 80's and use hearing aids, they do not help at all. For myself, I would like to dismiss all of the music because it adds nothing to the program except a GREAT DISTRACTION. Thanks for allowing me to vent. I am a disgruntled viewer. I have written to other program officials about the music on their shows also. How It's Made is another with loud music.

Sincerely,

David Shepherd

We agree - background "music" is very often loud and irritating to the point that it not only distracts from the program but makes hearing the dialogue nearly impossible.

CBS - turn down the damn background music on your prime time shows. I can't understand the dialogue. I'm ready to completely stop watching CBS shows!

My girlfriend has been complaining about the background noises on CBS which makes the conversation indistinguishable (which is the reason we watch and listen). Fix it ###s or you're not going to have any listeners to gouge the commercial buyers with. I already watch old shows on Hulu, which might be a good cure for this problem. Hook up your TV to a computer and have your pick of shows without the noise. There are hundreds of them.

It is not just the distraction but the type of 'music' (often it does not pretend to be music) which is often fairly jarring and irritating. I have just had to walk out of my room as my wife watched what could have been a good program. However, the unnecessary sound effects made listening to the program almost painful - it certainly rose my blood pressure. Ironically, it was about Tibetan nomads so why the screechy noises? Obviously, some people are not disturbed by it but many are. However, nobody I have asked has said that these noises add to the program - so if a proportion of the people are diturbed by them and the other section are not fussed, why are they there? Often it seems to be there because there are excessive sound engineers - when I watch some DVDs, the only image I get is a failed pop star beside an electronic synthesiser trying to make a name for him/herself. If it does not add to the show then why is it there? This is especially true of so called doumentaries when the 'evil' person or idea is preceded by dark music whilst the 'goodies' have much less aggressive sounds associated with them - in other words it is propaganda not a real attempt at portraying and objective picture.
