Some YouTube Premium subscribers say they are seeing ads.
Premium users also report seeing ads for YouTube Playables.
The company says it is looking into the issue.

The whole point of subscribing to YouTube Premium (https://www.androidauthority.com/youtube-premium-1119004/) is to improve the experience by removing ads from the equation. However, some Premium subscribers claim they’re still getting served ads, despite paying for the service.

In a Reddit post (https://www.reddit.com/r/youtube/comments/1g8kv31/am_i_seeing_ads_even_with_premium_now/), a YouTube Premium user shared a screenshot of the mobile app serving an ad for Google Workspace, something that should not be happening. This isn’t the first time something like this has been reported (https://www.reddit.com/r/youtube/comments/18ll7y6/i_have_youtube_premium_why_am_i_getting_adds/). Meanwhile, a different user (https://www.reddit.com/r/youtube/comments/1g8ks1c/ads_on_youtube_premium/) reports they were served ads for YouTube Playables.
