Bally Sports Detroit turned off, what about the elderly who never had smartphones!
Due to Comcast's decision to turn off Bally Sports I will now have to switch my elderly parents, long time customers of Comcast, who've never had a smartphone and rarely use the internet over to WOW so they can watch their beloved Detroit Tigers baseball games. I surmise there are numerous other people in the same situation.
This announced decision just shows how greedy Comcast is. I myself feel sorry for anyone who was watching a live event at the time when the feed went out.
If this issue isn't resolved by Comcast quickly I will also switch over to WOW if the price is right. I get enough fliers from them so I know I could get a good deal out of them.
Comcast: TURN BALLY SPORTS BACK ON OR LOSE MORE CUSTOMERS!

Hey give Comcast a break. It’s hard to live on 45 billion in profits like they had last year. :/

I think they want to shed as many legacy cable TV customers as possible. Internet, especially business internet, is more lucrative with less overhead.

In Detroit it is being reported that Comcast wants to move Bally Sports to a higher priced tier and Bally wants it left on the lower tier. Comcast constantly removes channels, our package used to include starz, but raise rather than lower their rates. The credit they are applying is the regional sports fee. They are once again removing a channel without lowering the price of the cable package itself. We are switching to Direct TV to see our beloved Tigers play. Poor service and greed are the business model followed by Comcast.
