YouTube TV is offering $20 credits during its Disney blackout - but there's a catch
"The Google-owned TV service said Sunday that it's offering customers a $20 bill credit, partially reimbursing them for the sports and shows they've missed on Disney's networks, like ESPN, in the last 11 days. This rebate takes off about a quarter of YouTube TV's $83 a month price tag."
""We know it's been disappointing to lose Disney content, and we want you to know we deeply appreciate your patience," YouTube TV said in an email to subscribers about the $20 bill credit. YouTube added that it's "been working in good faith" to reach a fair deal with Disney, which has argued that the tech giant is using its market power to drive down the rate it's paying."
"There are two key catches with YouTube TV's rebate: it's not automatically applied, and the opt-in bill credit counts toward a customer's next month, not this month. To receive the partial refund, YouTube TV customers must click this link, which directs them to the updates tab on the YouTube TV website or app. Subscribers can then click a blue button that says "claim credit" to get the $20 rebate applied to their next billing month."
YouTube TV is offering subscribers a $20 bill credit to partially reimburse for missed sports and programming on Disney networks, including ESPN, during an 11-day blackout. The credit equals roughly one quarter of the $83 monthly fee and will be applied to the subscriber's next billing cycle rather than the current month. Customers must opt in by using a provided link and clicking a "claim credit" button in the updates tab; third-party billed subscribers may receive an automatic credit. YouTube says it is negotiating in good faith with Disney, while Disney accuses Google of using market power to lower rates. Ongoing negotiations risk further missed games for sports fans.
