YouTube TV Drops Disney’s ABC, ESPN and Other Networks After Two Sides Fail to Reach New Deal

I tried to get the credit, but it says it will be applied against my next bill.

Since I wont have a next bill until the matter is resolved, I assume I wont see it. No big deal I dont suppose, but not really helpful for the two weeks I have missed because of it.

Correct, it's applied to the Next bill, not the current bill ... you also don't get it if your Paused.

If this is not resolved by Mid Dec, I may have to Pause my account and use another so I can have espn for the College Football Playoffs.

Hmm, I thought I read that you couldn't use a Mobile browser ...

Edit:
Did you get your 2nd email telling you to go ahead and claim it yet ?
I figure, I'll wait a few days, it's been 1 already, how long is a few to them, I don't know, but I did get the first email that said in it there would be a 2nd email coming.

FWIW...my second email came in 5 hours after the first email, yesterday.

Email or not, you could go to YouTube
and claim it.

Ok, you got the second email ...
Thats good to know.
Did it say anything other than go to your account and claim it ?

If it's no more than that, I don't know why they wanted you to wait for the 2nd email ????

we canceled our YTTV acct.. they offered us 21 days free.. you figure they could have given us a month. since there's no ESPN now it's not even worth entertaining the thought of going back along with the other few missing channels that we watch...

Ok, so after reading your email ... there really was no reason for You Tube TV to add the portion about a follow up email will be sent in a few days ...
