NFL Network Programming No Longer Available.

Good morning @user_sbwlvn

I don't think you answered his question: why is he continuing to pay for this service if it is not available? I feel the same way. I too will drop all of your services, not only if you don't settle this, but if your settlement leads to a price increase.

@XfinityJoe​ I don't think you answered his question: why is he continuing to pay for this service if it is not available? I feel the same way. I too will drop all of your services, not only if you don't settle this, but if your settlement leads to a price increase.

I just received a reminder from Comcast / Xfinity to accept the solution to my post. Here's the thing: there was no solution. If only Comcast/Xfinity was as attentive to this contract matter, maybe I would be able to accept a solution. Because THAT is the solution.

Thanks for reaching out about NFL programming. The agreement to carry NFL Network expired, so it’s no longer available with Xfinity. This includes NFL RedZone and any related Xfinity Stream and On Demand programming.
 
Please know Comcast pays programmers to bring you the entertainment you love, and, so far, Disney/ESPN has not proposed a deal that Comcast believes is fair for its customers. Comcast continues to work toward bringing back this programming, but only with fair pricing, terms, and conditions for its customers.
 
I know unexpected changes to your TV lineup can be inconvenient. Thank you for understanding. For more information, you can visit xfinity.com/programmingchanges.

Hope we getting refund for losing 

NFL Network n Red Zone

I agree. This is the breaking point. Ready to dump Xfinity!

Training camp is starting today and I am worried that I will not have NFL Network or Red Zone as we enter the NFL season. These are both part of the package I am paying for. We have Fios in my neighborhood, but really I would like to keep my Xfinity Service if they resolve this issue. But I plan on canceling if they can't resolve this soon and will move back to FIOS. With that, I also would lose access to Xfinity mobile as I'd likely package with Verizon instead. I am sure there are thousands of customers like me, so hopefully Xfinity and Disney can resolve this.

I am sick of Comcast removing channels and not having it reflected in my bill. I pay way too much for internet and cable already but over the last couple years I've seen my channels going away and the NFL channel is the last straw. I want to watch NFL preseason and if I don't have it back in my lineup before preseason starts I'm probably going to go ahead and dump Comcast because I can get everything else cheaper elsewhere. Faster internet as well through EPB Chattanooga

Not at all. The channel is gone. Says i dont get the station anymore. 

Gotcha! After doing some research I do see as of April 2026 our agreement to carry NFL Network and NFL RedZone expired. As a result, this programming is no longer available with Xfinity or Comcast Business, including any related programming on Xfinity Stream and On Demand. Please take a look here to see more details about the change https://www.xfinity.com/howitworks/ . 

Hi there @jagusm89. I am sorry to hear you feel this way about the missing channel NFL Network and NFL Redzone. You can still watch anything you’ve recorded, but your DVR won’t record any NFL Network or NFL RedZone programming while it’s unavailable. However, if the programming is restored, your settings will have been saved and recordings will resume.

Yes, get them back ..... !

The concern is not "Home Security Devices And Equipment" help related........... Topic moved here to the proper help section, and for greater exposure to Comcast corporate employees (The Digital Care Team) for assistance. 

@user_2b3a74 Good morning! Thank you for reaching out to our Xfinity Forums. Comcast pays programmers to bring customers the entertainment, information, and sports they want. Comcast works to negotiate fair terms to ensure the greatest value for customers given all the ways content can be accessed today. So far, Disney/ESPN has not proposed a deal that Comcast believes is fair for its customers. Comcast continues to work towards making this programming available again with fair pricing, terms, and conditions for customers.

Head to xfinity.com/howitworks for more information on how great content is delivered to Comcast’s customers.

are there any plans to get NFL channel and redzone back soon? I will be changing providers if you don't

Hi fairmont2010! Thanks for reaching out on our Xfinity Forum. Great question! At this time, the only information we have is that Comcast continues to work towards making this programming available again with fair pricing, terms, and conditions for customers. If and when this programming is available again, it will be communicated to customers. 

If you never get them back im going to have to switch providers. Im sorry but thats our homes favorite channel and its getting to close to fall.

@user_576ba9 I understand the disappointment. On Thursday, April 30 at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time (ET), Comcast’s agreement to carry NFL Network and NFL RedZone expired. As a result, this programming is no longer available with Xfinity or Comcast Business, including any related programming on Xfinity Stream and On Demand. Disney/ESPN, the owners of NFL Network, have not proposed a deal that Comcast believes is fair for its customers. If a new agreement with Disney/ESPN, the owners of NFL Network and NFL RedZone, isn’t reached, the impact on current or future charges will be evaluated.

@XfinityDena​ just know if we don’t see it back by the start of the season  you’ll probably lose a lot of customers 

If I don’t have redzone for week 1 I will cancel my cable 

I’ve been with Xfinity since 2009 and one of the main reasons I’ve stayed is the convenience of having the Red Zone channel. I’m a Raiders fan living in CO so I don’t get to see my team unless they’re they’re on prime time or the 2 times they play the Broncos. If we don’t have the Red Zone channel then why do you guys still charge me for the sports package. And if they get it resolved by the time the regular season starts I’ll be canceling my service and getting a cable service or dish that will have Red Zone. I’d rather they charge me more for the content I want rather than taking it away. 

GREED... Both Comcast and NFL Network have other partners that control whole regions.  On top of that they are beholden to their shareholders such as Black Rock who has no incentive but to drive up the price for everyone...

Not only am I disappointed but getting angry.  NFL network is my favorite.  Not being able to watch it is like buying a car that is not drivable.  I’m paying for it but can’t use it!  A few more days of this and I’ll be exploring other options.  I hope you get my point.  And I suspect I’m not the only one either 

@XfinityAirelle wrote: "... channels are not billed individually or à la carte, so we are not able to provide a specific credit for one unavailable channel ..."

The company invalidated that argument when it rebated the loss of channels supplied by E.W. Scripps, as it should have done, even though these were "not billed individually or à la carte". It is disingenuous to advance this "we can't do it" claim.  

@BruceW​ 💯 % on point, im going to get the SUPERBOX 

I agree !!! It would be nice to be updated on what Xfinity is doing about  it.

Same here as well as my friends. YouTube’s looking better daily 

@Nanaof7 Thank you for reaching out about your concerns with NFL Network. Not at this time. If a new agreement with Disney/ESPN, the owners of NFL Network and NFL RedZone, isn’t reached, the impact on current or future charges will be evaluated.
