I have been a longtime fan and since cable has been so expensive I don't have it. So I have subscriptions to things my kids watch all the time and things I like. For one lifetime does not let you just pay to watch the channel you ha e to have a service or cable. Second I signed up for lifetime movie network and it is false advertising (which is illegal in many ways). There are not over 100 movies. Also I noticed that they no longer give you a new movie a day. For such a big name and company that has been around as long as I have they really don't seem to care about what their consumers want. I paid for the year but after that they have lost my business. Unless they change it so that we have more movies and have access to the channel without forcing you buy a package. More than half my girlfriends have already canceled their subscription and they warned me but me being me I'm like no way your nuts lifetime is the best. Well I see what they are saying. You guys are losing so much business and do not realize it. If you were to ask me if I would recommend this subscription I would say absolutely not worth your money and a rip off and complete false advertisement. I will also be making a call to the appropriate people about the false advertising and scamming people for there money. I have the proof so if they try to change it I will be backed up fully. Make sure you read all reviews first and ask your friends about this subscription before signing up. Be wise and do your research first. Not saying they don't have good movies but they definitely are not holding up to the standards they used too!

Desired outcome: Stop false advertising and don’t force people to buy cable or a package with a tv provider just to watch the channel.

OP did you sit and count how many movies they show? the new movies are normally mentioned at a specific time of day. did you watch at that time?

kimberly you are aware they use nelson research and viewing locations to fine tune their programing. so they saw your show due to unknown reasons that we don't know [this could be they lost the rights to show them or the shows were not performing well]. then add shows that you don't like... um the data they got obviously say they need more of those shows to be inclusive of the demography that watches their programing.

sherry if i recall to get onto roku or those services a station has to pay the company an access fee then they get a cut of the income that their station brings in. its not that fubo is giving more to lifetime. this happens allot of times with companies. there may have been a disagreement on who pays what for the station and gets what from the profits. i know 2 of my stations had to change. 1 went off the air cause it wasn't profitable for both parties due to viewers leaving the channel. the other changed their branding [though kept the theme] due to the same reason of money not coming in to warent a exclusive channel.

I started to fall back in love with Lifetime movies again , but recently had a change of heart. The music for the love scenes are trash, who is hiring these singers? My cat in heat sounds better. The leading men in the romane scenes as well are basic not top tier. The men at best should be someone you would at least have a second look at. Come on Lifetime you have to to better 2022

Lifetime you are so disappointing. You took a cherished and live show that started from the movies, The good witch, and not only did you cancel it, you sabotaged it by adding LGBT. The ending was rushed, there was no closure for many characters, and the final straw for me was the added LGBT.
I have spent many years watching your channel you have officially lost me as well as several others. While I do not judge those that make choices, I do not want to watch it. I canr belive you took your channel in that direction as well as sabotaging one of the best and loved shows on there!

I have a roku tv and decided to get fubo for my tv streaming provider. I am very satisfied with fubo but i noticed a couple months ago that i could no longer view lifetime tv under fubo. My guess is lifetime wants fubo to pay more for their station. I naturally went to the lifetime app on my tv then to watch a show and now cant get it there either. They want us to buy a subscription. I will not be buying a subscription and further more you have lost me as a customer. I feel you are losing many customers due to your greedy and heartless actions. There are many other options on fubo to sayisfy me and not have to shell out any more money because of greediness.
