Issue seemed to have disappeared for a while (for me, at least) but it looks like it's back again as of today...

I am having this same issue when listening on my desktop using Google Chrome.  I tried signing out and then back in but the issue remains the same.  I have strong internet so I know that isn't the issue.  This has been going on for about 2 weeks now.  Any suggestions on how to fix would be greatly appreciated.

I'm having the same issue again. It's getting frustrating that I can't listen on my computer. Seriously thinking of switching to another service. At this point, I think all of the people having this issue, should get some type of credit/reimbursement to our account for all the issues we've been having for the past couple of weeks.

As of 5/31/22 the issue is still happening between EVERY single song.

Same as others, I'm gonna be cancelling my service and moving to something else if this isn't fixed soon.  It's almost completely unusable.

Same here...between every single song I either have to wait or hit the reload button.  Very very frustrating as I listen to pandora while I work all day.  I'm with kjcdude, will have to move to another platform if this is not resolved ASAP.  My patience is running out.

I am also having this issue on Chrome and Edge on desktop. I have cleared everything signed out and back in. Still having the same problem.

Any updates on this? Still consistently experiencing this issue solely on the web app in Chrome as well as the Mac desktop app. There should be reimbursement of some sort for those having this issue as the service has been unusable for weeks (if not longer).

Same here.

Just for updated information - seems like the problem is sort of hit and miss for me. I'll have mornings where it seems pretty persistent and then it disappears entirely.

Today, it's been pretty non-stop with the network connection message.

Also, definitely seems worse on my work system which has things like VPN connections and corporate level security everywhere possible which I imagine isn't helping but I figured I'd make note of that.

This is still happening, only on my work computer with a vpn, however my internet speeds are close to 100MB.  Also I have been using Pandora on this computer for over a year without any issues, this has started the last 2 months or so.  Other streaming services such as iHeartRadio work without issues so I can't blame the VPN.

I too have started having this issue with my desktop app.  I am using Chrome as my browser and I deleted cache and cookies this morning and logged out but still getting the pause/dead silence session.   This just started 2 weeks ago for me.

thank you for any further suggestions.

In case it helps, when I watch the console in Chrome I see the attached errors. The 'bugsnag' line occurred at the same time as me hitting the forward button to advance to the next song. At that point I got the 'poor network connection' message, although it only took a few seconds to complete - which is improved over the several seconds delay I was getting before logging out and then back in, but still not as quick as before where it was pretty much immediate. This problem only started happening for me today, btw, whether I'm no my work VPN or not.

@AlyssaPandora  - We appreciate the updates, however the update has not changed since late March - 'engineering team is working on it and that our feedback is added to the ticket.' and at this point, your community deserves a better response. 

I work in technology so I understand how things are sometimes hard to track down, however it should not take months to fix a problem on a paid service. Your team should be meeting with leadership daily until this issue is resolved and a true update, along with an ETA, reported out weekly if not daily.  

I realize that you are just the middle person between us and your developers/engineers, but at this point someone from your leadership team should be posting updates to their customers. This has to be affecting a ton of your customers; not everyone looks for resolutions on the internet or comes across this board.

I don't want to use 'threat' of cancelling my service, but I am seriously considering it. Between Amazon Music, Spotify, etc., there are options that your customers could choose. Pandora should appreciate that they have customers that are choosing them over these other services and go above and beyond to fix ongoing issues like this.
