Does anyone remember the channel number that showed the 20$ credit to Sunday ticket subs. It still hasn't shown up on my bill and the "loyalty" rep practically called me a liar and said there wasn't such an offer. I tried a couple search options on the forum, but I'm not the brightest. Or better yet did anyone get a picture of the actual screen? I'd love to have a screenshot and post it to the DTV twitter.

Thanks. I eventually got them to promise me the $20 a month credit promised to me, but DTV would NOT admit it was because they lost Sunday Ticket. I'll believe the credit when I actually see it on my bill. The whole ordeal left me wondering if it was a screw up, or, if they never intended to come through with it, using it as something deliberate to keep subscribers hanging on for a couple more months until NFL starts up again.

Going forward, the service will be available on a non-exclusive basis through all participating cable and satellite providers.

You can check your account online under billing there is a spot somewhere that says "recent activity." This is where they put all charges and credits & is immediate. Sometimes they will send you a confirmation email as well.

This authoritatively slams the door on DIRECTV having exclusive carriage rights for commercial NFLST. I wonder who will be left for them to serve given the alternatives.

In the end, perhaps, a distinction without a difference.

Unless it spreads the subscriber base so thinly across the various platforms as to not warrant the investment. This would logically apply to all those interested.

It will be interesting to see how (or if) this change impacts DirecTV's commercial accounts. The little hole in the wall bar that I frequent in Cedar Rapids only has DirecTV for NFLST. If NFLST is picked up by Mediacom or ImOn, will they ditch DirecTV and just go back to cable ?

No it does not do that in any way, moron.

It doesn't say anything about how it will be delivered or whether it will be exclusive to a single provider or open to anyone.

You are too quick in calling someone a moron.

Here is the press release.

Right in the second paragraph-

The multi-year license of out-of-market Sunday afternoon games to EverPass Media will provide access to NFL Sunday Ticket for commercial businesses across the country. Going forward, the service will be available on a non-exclusive basis through all participating cable and satellite providers.

Which means everyone, not just DirecTV.

So if DirecTV wants to carry it, have to make a deal with Redbird, I assume in a revenue sharing deal.

RedBird is funding the creation of EverPass Media and the NFL, through its strategic investment arm 32 Equity, will also make an equity investment. Previously, the NFL and 32 Equity partnered with RedBird to create On Location Experiences, a global leader in premium live event hospitality and fan experiences.

The National Football League and RedBird Capital Partners today announced the formation of EverPass Media, a new media platform which will hold the exclusive rights to distribute NFL Sunday Ticket to bars, restaurants, hotels and other commercial venues in the United States starting with the 2023 NFL season.

The multi-year license of out-of-market Sunday afternoon games to EverPass Media will provide access to NFL Sunday Ticket for commercial businesses across the country. Going forward, the service will be available on a non-exclusive basis through all participating cable and satellite providers.

Reading the quote: Commercial establishments will be able to buy Sunday Ticket from EverPass and have it delivered by participating partners. Exclusive rights owned by EverPass - not DIRECTV.

I hope you like the taste of crow (or RedBird as the case may be).

YouTubes Sunday ticket pricing has been released Here's what NFL 'Sunday Ticket' will cost through YouTube TV

there is supposed to be an early signup period to take the price down some.

Also in another article it confirmed the Directv version of RedZone Channel is done there will only be the other version. Though I have not seen if Directv plans to carry that RedZone channel
