Verified ReviewerYou billed me for service I don’t use and I would like my money back
I accidentally downloaded Philo trying to download a movie when I realize that I hit the wrong button. I canceled the subscription that day that like 10 minutes after I did so and I deleted the app therefore I am charged $29.88 for something I dont even use, I dont even know whats on the app I dont know any of those things because I deleted it as soon as I realize that I downloaded the wrong app and canceled it. I would like a full refund because I never use your service.
- I would not know because i never used the app
Preferred solution: Full refund

You billed me for service I don’t use and I would like my money back
I was trying to download a movie in the process of me downloading the movie. I thought I downloaded Philo app as soon as I realize that it was the wrong app.
I canceled that same day like minutes afterwards then I get billed for an app that I dont even have canceled and deleted the app and I was charged
$29.88 for something I never watched.
I dont think that that is fair and it went through my Apple device so Apple allowed it to go through to my account because Philo pushed the payment through not cool. I would really like a refund because I do not use your app or never have, I dont know what type of procedures you go through but if you look through, I never watched anything
User's recommendation: Pay attention to who subscribe to because I never really wanted this that is why I canceled soon as I realize what I had done

Verified ReviewerPhilo Service has stopped on my tv.
On Sunday, May 26, 2024 stopped working on my tv. I tried to log in on through the Philo introduction page showed up on my screen.
The page read Start your Free Trial on Signin. I clicked Signin since I have had an account with Philo for several years. The signin showed my email address but when I clicked that selection I got an error message that my email was not found in your system. When I tried to signin with the phone number the screen showed an old phone number.
I could not input my new number. At that point I checked the status of my payment at ROKU because that is where my payment is processed. Via Roku, I updated my payment card information. On their system it says that my next Philo payment is set for June 26, 2024 but Philo is still not working on my TV.
Earlier today I checked my card account and it shows that Philo payment ($21.19)was paid on May 27, 2024. However Philo is still not working on my tv today. Also, a few minutes ago I spoke with an accounts rep.
with ROKU and they suggested that after troubleshooting my account, that I needed to contact Philo to see if the app can be restarted on my tv. Please inform how Philo can be restarted on my tv.
- Great programming
- Hard to reach and unable to contact someone to resolve disputes
Preferred solution: Restoration of service or refund of the amount paid for May 2024

Contact with customer service and technical support
My Fire Stick remote stopped working and my LG TV settings got messed up. The gentleman at technical support patiently walked me through then steps to get everything working again.
The representative was patient, knowledgeable and friendly. Could not have asked for more.
