Bally Sports is Dropped

thank you Comcast, you have made my decision to leave you much easier by dropping the one reason I have held out on - being able to watch the Atlanta Braves.

Unfortunately, our programming agreement with DSG has expired. We have made a number of reasonable offers that DSG hasn't accepted. This means we no longer have the rights to carry their channels, including your local Bally Sports network. The loss of this channel will result in savings that we’ll pass along to you, and you’ll see an automatic credit in your bill in the coming weeks.

 

We pay networks and station owners for the ability to deliver their programming to our customers. We negotiate agreements to bring our customers the best value for the content they want. For more information, see xfinity.com/howitworks.

 

FuboTV Fubotv.com/offer.has a ooffer, which includes:

  • A free trial period, and
  • 30% off for two months on the Pro and Elite tiers.

    • Both tiers include Bally Sports regional sports networks.

  • Note:You will have to watch FuboTV content through the FuboTV app on a supported device or online at fubotv.com.

    • FuboTV is not available on the Xfinity X1 platform.

Fubo is useless and insanely overpriced since they don't have TNT, TBS, CNN, Discovery Channel, Animal Planet, American Heroes, Cooking Channel, Destination America, DIY channel, Food Network, HGTV, Investigation, Motor Trend, OWN, the Science channel, TLC, Travel channel, AMC, BBC America, BBC World News, IFC, Sundance TV, or We TV. 

At this point I have to assume that Xfinity is trying to shed as many residential customers as possible, that's the only explanation for their behavior. I would've thought being a customer for 44 years might mean something but that's not the world we live in anymore, is it?

My bill increased just before Bally was dropped.   How about since you are dragging your feet crediting customers, I just pay $10 dollars less every month when my bill is due.
