Disappointed with Comcast and Bally Sports
Will be researching other carriers for the Twins when my contract with Comcast ends. Unfortunate for Comcast and many Twins fans

Get the Texas Rangers back on my Xfinity TV or I will drop you after 10 years of being a loyal customer!

I am leaving Comcast. I can't watch the Twins.
And even signing up for the Fubo free trial didn't work. Direct TV is cheaper. Comcast customer since 2006 but it does not matter to Comcast. The only reason I stayed was to watch the Twins games.

Well if Amazon gets Bally, there's going to be more changes coming

so if you not longer have regional sports why are you still billing for it? I've called and the agent cannot explain it other that I will get a one time credit of $20, while you will continue billing me $10 a month for something I do not get. To me that sounds like fraud.

So sick of this [Edit: Language]!!! Can’t even watch the Braves when they’re on espn+ or tbs bc of blackouts. Xfinity blaming this on Bally is [Edit: Language]. Fix it Xfinity!!! Pay the extra and leave it up to the customers to decide if they wanna pay for it. [Edit: Language]

Can't wait to get rid of Comcast/Xfinity. They clearly have no concern for their customers as they just dumped hundreds of thousands of households that pay for their service from Bally Sports' regional networks. I don't really care who is to blame. It's simply ridiculous that Comcast/Xfinity doesn't broadcast any of these teams anymore. They took action with no plan in place and customers suffer.

Losing Bally Sports is the last straw. I’m looking into other options than Comcast. The Royals finally have a good team and we can’t watch the games.

The MLB are not happy with Bally Sports.
"
MLB’s reps say Diamond has been “an undependable partner,” and has asked for a June 18 confirmation hearing to be postponed."

It's been 2 months since Xfinity dropped Ballys. I'm still being billed for "regional sports" and they have not made a single adjustment to compensate for the lost Channel. In fact my bill has gone up $2 over the same period. Switching to DirectTV. Also the countdown is on for fiber installation in my neighborhood. Can't wait to finally rid myself of one of the worst services in existence.

What is Bally asking for? We have been without the Twins for over 4 weeks. Frankly I would have paid a dollar or two per month and have had the ability to watch the twins. We pay well over $300 per month for Comcast service. A big part of what we watch “was the Twins” not happy. New fiber servise coming to our neighborhood… it may be time to switch after many years!!!

Basically, Bally is probably demanding more money, and keeping it in lower tiers where 99% never watch it, subsidizing the 1%. Comcast wants to move it to a higher tier, so they can keep costs for the 99% lower.
Plus, there may also be an ulterior motive. If Bally goes under, Comcast can try and get the sports leagues to put games on Peacock.

I too was under a 2 year contract and only about 6 months into it. Cancellation fee $230. [Edited: "Solicitation"] . I was pleased that Comcast did not charge the cancellation fee! [Edited: "Solicitation"]

Me too. Good wake up call, I guess, re: how much I’m spending on cable and watching everything but news and sports on streaming.
nfl will be playing on a bunch of different networks and streaming services. Probably have some and don’t have others. The diminishing value proposition for cable TV is being exposed.
Hey, Comcast, it’s not the pandemic anymore.
