battle.borne Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 So apparently the 7-day free trial with FUBO comes with a few strings. I signed up to watch Nevada get thrashed by USC on the P12 Network. But unbeknownst to me I didn't sign up for the proper tier of the free trial. So here I was panicking at 2pm on Saturday wondering how to add the sports tier etc..... Apparently, once you select free trial, basic level, there is no going back and of course nobody to call. It's a real exercise in shitty customer service. But thankfully @mugtang saved me and let allowed me to his FUBO log in so I could watch on the old laptop. Score on for Mr. Mugtang!! Thanks homie. The game was over by the 2nd QT but that's not the point of this little story.... 1 Quote "You pukin morons are just plain too dumb." -bluerules008 aka jibscout aka Hal "Mosquito Man" Newman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really does suck. I don't get the appeal or how it's still in business. It's considerably more expensive than HULU and it doesn't have any decent original programming. 1 Quote "You pukin morons are just plain too dumb." -bluerules008 aka jibscout aka Hal "Mosquito Man" Newman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RebelRobert Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 PAC-12 NOW Games are usually available on Youtube. That is where I watched the UNR vs. USC game for free. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Packfan11.1 Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 One thing I came up against was I had taken advantage of the free trial last year and didn't subscribe. What they don't allow you to sign up for more than 1 free trial. I guess my IP was blocked from signing up and I couldn't get past the info screen. No worries as I really didn't need to see my team get trounced by the #5 team in the nation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyobraska Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 Fubo is trash as well for advertising their Pro plan at $74.99 but then they don't tell you until you go to check out that they add a fee for regional sports networks. So here in CO they add $13.99 a month to Pro for Altitude 1 and 2 to watch the Nuggets and Mavs and you can't opt out. That seems like bait and switch to me. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah same thing happened for me signing up before the game last week. They're one of the few that had the Pac 12 Network, so the free trial was perfect. I'll probably switch back to youtubetv though.

I wanted the PAC 12 Network too but with their increased prices, it's turn off for me. Adding the regional sports network without advertising it pissed me off so I switched. I'm glad we won't have to worry about the PAC 12 Network next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe Sling is the only streaming option. Right now, my plan is to pay for sling orange with the $11 sports package add on for one month (basically $51 to watch the game). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trojan209 Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 I got screwed initially thinking they had the 7 day trial which the website claims. Apparently adding the sports package turns it into a 24 hour trial which wasn’t explained well until I checked my email the next day. I missed the email just after the 24 hours. Even after talking to support they basically said it was my fault for not knowing. So oh well. I got to watch both USC games and can watch some extra shows for a few more weeks. But I’ll be glad the P12N is dying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bronco7454 Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 Not trying to rub salt in your wounds here but everything that's been said here about Fubo is A. Accurate and B. Something I found out for myself sometime between six to eight years ago. Learning is sometimes painful but it's learning nonetheless. For my streaming TV needs I use # 1 - YouTubeTV and # 2.

I watched the last Wyoming game on LHN there quite a few years ago now. Not sure if you are close to Tempe Marketplace. I'm trying to remember the name of that bar. Might be gone now the way bars last down there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phxpoke Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 I did some research. They show the Texas games in Tempe at the thirsty lion. Hopefully they’ll be some of Wyoming fans there to help me cheer on the Pokes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
