Bally
When will Bally be restored to Xfinity? Access to the Atlanta Braves games is one of the main reasons I've continued to pay the high Comcast TV rates. Without Bally I'll probably go to a less expensive streaming package.

Bally Sports is still in bankruptcy. RSN's in general are struggling. They are no longer a guaranteed way to print money. There are fewer and fewer non-viewing subscribers covering the tiny number of actual viewers. The ever increasing costs have forced many people to cut the cord.

I'm jumping in here to make my voice heard.
Bally is one of the biggest reasons I maintain Xfinity service. I don't want the "credit" you told me I'd get in an email today, I want you to get a deal done with Bally. And I know I'm not the only one who feels this way. Suddenly, I can't watch the Tigers and I'm told I'll get a credit because of it?? Really??? This is a deal-breaker. If Xfinity doesn't get this deal done, I will no longer be an Xfinity customer. It's that simple.

Go ahead and leave. Comcast will be happy. For every customer who leaves due to the loss of Bally, many, many more will stay due to the lower price.

Comcast reps said the upgrade cost for the sports like Bally was more than $50/month.
Cheapskates offering $8 - $10 refund.

I will be calling Comcast today to cancel service and sign up for DirectTV where Bally is still broadcast. This is ridiculous. I am so tired of these semi-monopolies arbitrarily discontinuing to broadcast channels when they can't negotiate terms. Along with the multitude of streaming services I now have to subscribe to in order to watch the shows/events I want, I'm paying more than ever for home entertainment. This has to stop. Xfinity needs to get its act together. Also, not sure if anyone has noticed, but I'm having a hard time finding contact information for anyone at Xfinity to whom I can formally submit a complaint. Seems like everything is automated/self service. I'm definitely not getting my $350 a month worth from these clowns.
