Charter Spectrum drops ESPN and all Disney

[bandman]

They wait for literally the kickoff of football season and freeze out the customers. No kids channels, no sports including ACC and SEC networks.

SPECTRUM BETTER CUT THEIR CABLE BILLS QUICK

The big rat supposedly pulled the plug on Spectrum just before kickoff.

Went to Spectrum website to complain. They sent me to a link where I can get a specially negotiated discounted rate of only $56 a month on Fubo to watch the channels I am already paying for. You can't make this stuff up.

Where can we watch the game?

Things like this make me not feel bad when I have to resort to vpn tricks to watch a game.

Insulting. I'd be like, "How about I give you a special rate of $0."

At the Benz.

Fubo free trial

 

[justafan]

Fubo and YouTube TV offer free trials if you haven't already used them. (Any others?)

Sling Orange is $20 (+ tax I think) for your first month and includes ESPN.

Regular YouTube and it's free. Guarantee you someone will be streaming it.

Ok ok I’ll be nice. Try switching to a non-poverty cable company.

Here’s another option:

ESPN Announces Theatrical Distribution Agreement with Theater Sports Network for ACC Regular Season and College Football Playoff Games

ESPN has entered into a theatrical distribution agreement with Theater Sports Network to televise Atlantic Coast Conference college football games at movie theaters. Additionally, the agreement covers the New Year’s Six Bowl games including the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl, the Goodyear Cotton Bowl...

yep until the 4th quarter when they block out the video with a "Click the link below"

 

[boozinbuzz]

I think this is hilarious. Shows how far the influence of ESPN has fallen. College football isn't a good product and has crappy ratings these days. I'd imagine other carriers will follow suit.

 

[77GTFan]

My cable bill better reflect that I am not getting ESPN channels, ACC and SEC networks, ABC and Disney. I don’t know who is at fault but this is ridiculous. Pulling the plug as the college football season is ready to kickoff shows absolute contempt for customers by both Disney and Spectrum.

It will be back. They always do this for some negotiations
