Twenty percent of U.S. pay-TV customers reported dissatisfaction with their service in a recent Parks Associates survey.
The figure represents a 100% increase since early 2013, when another Parks survey also revealed that 57% of pay-TV customers were “very satisfied” with their service.
In Parks’ latest tally, only one-third of pay-TV users looked the research company in the eye and said, “I’m satisfied.”
The Parks data comes after Leichtman Research Group released figures Thursday showing the U.S. linear pay-TV business lost about 1,640,000 subscribers in 2016, compared to a loss of about 980,000 in 2015.
