    Stream is unwatchable as it keeps cutting out and the audio is far too crackly.

    First time I'm going in on my Mac. Maybe that's the problem. Don't see why though.
    PC is at work :(

    Hey guys. We've passed on the cracking noise complaint to our service provider as it seems to be coming from their end and not our commentary box.

    Sorry for the inconvenience but thanks for letting us know.

    I don't ever recall viewers saying Valley Pass has worked properly, although it must have.
    What percentage of times has it actually worked  (like watching TV) from start to finish ?

    Other than audio sync normally, most of the time.

    Are you using a free or paid VPN?

    Every time I've used it it's been fine. That's like... 3 times

    Every Saturday game so far this season.

    The key is having set up to work, not using outdated software and clicking on incorrect links

    I'm surprised. I know invariably it's put right at some stage, but in comparison to turning on your TV and watching with no issues from start to finish, I usually read comments like -

    The game has started and we have no picture.
    They are showing the wrong game.
    The audio is out of sync.
    The audio is crackling (today only).

    It’s been absolutely fine for me all season, except for a slight lack of syncing between pictures and audio - mildly annoying but not as big an issue for me as it seems to be for some. I’m camping this weekend so only got the audio going but again a bit of mild crackle isn’t the end of the world. I’m old enough to remember the terrible phone line commentary on the BBCfir England games in Eastern Europe etc. and I’m just very happy to be able to watch these matches at all while living on another continent. 

    I suspect a lot of the issues may be related to people using free VPNs. I use VPNs a lot to watch georestricted content and after trying a few free ones I found them unreliable and inconsistent so bought a paid service. I don’t use a VPN at all for Valley Pass though because I’m actually abroad and not trying to get around georestrictions for a change.

    It's never going to be like just switching on your TV and watching, too many things can go wrong, internet speed, software, device used, VPN server if in uk etc

    Always been brilliant for me but today not. Like I said, first time I've used my Mac. I don't need a vpn as I'm in the States. Tried with Chrome and Firefox. Both the same. I'll see what happens next match with my PC (at work now). Can't see why it should be different with the Mac but you never know.

    I've never experienced the first two, the audio sync takes less than 1min to fix, the crackling is a little annoying.

    However, as @Chef_addick says, it's not comparable to watching on the TV, the internet is totally different, even huge companies like Netflix has issues. I's say 90% of the problems with VP are down to user error.

    Currently in France. Normally watch on VPN in UK. When I click on to purchase today's match it only shows Matchday Pass £4, which I purchased but its usually £5. I've already got Valley Pass. Anyone else getting this?

    Is that not the video pass price for usual subscribers?

    Don't know. Normally shows Live Video Stream for £5. I've contacted them, waiting for response.
