NFL Sunday Ticket costs $479 to watch on a Laptop???

It cost me 500 to watch with a lap dance so this seems a bit expensive

And it's usually on sale for $79 for the year, prior to the beginning of the season. I bought it last year on 9/4.

However, you lose all of the suspense of watching the game live, because not only is the final score shown where you need to click to watch the game, but they leave it at the bottom of the screen for the entire game.

I said that the Miami-Tampa pre-season game score was not shown on the NFL website's main page, and that was correct. In the past, when I turned off "show scores", they weren't shown on the NFL website main page, but I just looked now, and the Chiefs-Ravens score is shown, even though I have the "show scores" turned off. I have no idea why that is... but I do know that the NFL website is completely different this year than it was last year.

In fact, even when I go to the NFL plus webpage with "show scores" turned off, its main page now shows all of the scores (so far, it's just the KC game) at the top of the page. And, on the NFL Plus Replays page, the scores are blank where you choose which replay to watch, but it still shows the scores at the top of the page.

IOW, when they changed their website for this season, they weren't paying attention to these details and totally screwed it all up!

I got it free almost every year. And I got my Choice + local sports package (like CSN Bay Area type channels) for less than $100/mo. The key, most of the time, is that you have to threaten to quit, to get transferred to the retention department. I figured that out when they wouldn't budge on a discount or free ST once, and I literally was ready to cancel. Then, I never called to negotiate a price. Instead, I'd call in and immediately go to cancellation.

It also helps to always pay your bill on time. They kept calling me a Gold Star customer or somesuch, and when I asked what that was, they said it was because I was a long-time customer that always paid my bill on time. I asked if that was uncommon, and they replied that I'd be surprised.

Same thing with me. The current issue with ESPN is a disgrace though.
 
I'm having a pretty decent experience with DAZN, for the cost especially.

I first bought it when I was in Egypt and now in UK.

I'd like to watch Monday night's game, but that would mean having to give Disney three months of fees instead of the two I'm paying to watch the Dolphins' MNF games.

Edit: Ah, I just realized how I can watch the Niners/jests game on Monday and still watch the Dolphins game on Veterans' Day, 2 months and 2 days later. I just have to sign up on Monday and then cancel during the first month, wait a couple weeks and pay for another month. For some reason, I had it in my head that I'd have to pay for a two month block.

I had Direct TV since the inception of Sunday Ticket. I guess about 30- years. I got one free year in all that time. I'm not saying you are a liar, but from my experience, you did not get it for free.
Each time I called, they never budged on ST. They would make concessions on other choices, like movie channels and discounts on the package I had.
I am a very persuasive person. And I had little success on the Ticket.

Can you explain this? I have a Sony Bravia and every app I use was either preloaded or I downloaded it.

I got it free twice. In terms of the discounted, I am referring to either budging on the Sunday Ticket price or lowering my overall bill. Really didn't matter to me if they lowered the bill or Sunday Ticket since the net effect was the same.

In terms of getting success with the lowering, pretty much had to go in with the thought that you were going to cancel service if they did not offer a really good deal. I either went through the cancellation option or asked to speak directly to the initial customer service's supervisor who was able to give deals that the normal customer service operator could not.
 
Just saw FanDuel is running a special, if you bet $5 you can get a free 3 week trial of the Ticket on Youtube TV.
