NBA League Pass

[LB#16]

Has anyone got a cheap option this year? I believe mine has jumped from $74 to $174 this year. NBA must be booming in the land of Messi.

I'm wondering if we just need to go through the VPN again - the reminder email was in English and quoted AUD rather than in Spanish.

In fact, the email literally says that is the AUD price. The crackdown is on.

Is Turkey still a go?

It hasn’t yet renewed for me and I haven’t received the renewal email yet, but here’s what my app store is showing



works out to be ~$26 aud for the year if it renews at that price

Mine was going to be renewed for $174. Cancelled it.
Might try VPN just prior to season see if it works.

Ordered the NBA2K Hall of Fame edition that comes with the League Pass. If its $174 then paying $195 via some microsoft and 2K discounts I got seems like a good deal for the game and pass then.

This is what I'm doing. Ginobili land is too expensive now. Turkoglu land is the go this year.

Didn't have issues signing up via Turkiye?

Mine doesn't renew until 20th of Sept so because I have a subscription it won't let me have a new one yet. Stay tuned.

My 10 year streak for autorenewal through Egypt seems to have come to an end. They look to have cracked down on updating payment card locations. Any suggestions on updated payment options?

 

[LB#16]

This happened to me as well. Nigeria was cheap at $31.99 but they auto confirmed the card location as Nigeria so my bank will go wild.

Still going on Mexican Pesos

Comes out to about $100 - split with 3 mates.

OK value

I've got 899, it auto renews through google play. I have nfi if it'll actually go through as turkish price or revert to aud lp price. Anyone had their autorenew go through yet?

Yeah I got a renewal notice last week to say the subscription is increasing to 899 lira, still great value so I'm hoping it goes through fine at the end of the month

Do you need to watch with vpn on etc?

Nup just signed up the one time with VPN and it renews each year in pesos.

I remember finding out about illegal nba streams back around 2009/2010 by pure chance when looking for free streams of AFL games and realising that streams of other sports were also available on the net.

Not sure if it was on BF or some other website that someone mentioned NBA International League Pass and so the 2010/11 season was the first time I signed up for the service. Remember paying around $150 to $180 for all regular season games including the play offs which I thought was reasonable at the time. Started playing around with proxies/VPNs when they ridiculously raised the subscription price to over $300 a few years later.

I was just wondering though when International League Pass became available for overseas NBA fans. I've searched on google and the best that I could find is that NBA began streaming a few select games in 2006 but no mention whether it was just for the US local market or when all games finally started streaming on International (which they now call Global) League Pass. I get that League Pass originally began as a cable channel service back in 1999 but that's not what I'm interested in. Weird that such simple information can't easily found on the internet, at least I haven't had luck in finding an answer to that query.

For the premium subscription is Offline Viewing only available on Android devices? Just spent some time on a desktop computer looking for the Offline option and eventually gave up resorting to a google search to find out how to do this and it sucks that apparently it is just available for Android devices.

Just subscribed for the Premium League Pass mainly because the Offline Viewing option appealed to me as LP stream recordings can often lag in the last quarter, and is incredibly frustrating having to waste so much time watching a slow low resolution recording. But I guess I should have looked into the detail before paying for that subscription as I have no interest in watching sport on a small screen.

Has anyone requested a change of subscription and had any luck in doing so? In past years I have had difficulty getting assistance from LP customer service so I'm not holding my breath that I'll be able to change to the standard subscription.

 

[fidstar]

Anytime I've asked for assistance I've got nothing back. Admittedly it's been several years.

 

[randyzany]

I had issues with LP (some games randomly not loading) around 2017 and it took days to get a response from their staff. Seems like they've improved their customer service as they replied to query about 3 hours after I submitted it last night and got a refund after replying to their email around 8am today within 4 hours. Very impressed.

Only issue is that I had to create a new account as it wasn't letting me resubscribe due to having already 'redeemed' the discount code.

Annoying and outright misleading about Offline Viewing though, they should make it very clear that's only for Android/iOS devices in the offer. After spending like around 15 minutes looking for it on a desktop Mac PC once I had already subscribed for the Premium option, I had to do a google search to find out the catch that it was just for phone devices.

NBA league pass emails are flooding my inbox. Cracking down on VPNs and now they're begging for subscribers. FAFO.....

 

[Del80659]

I've been watching Jazz games streamed on Playback via SLC Dunk (Jazz site). that can't be good for the NBA getting people to sign up, I wonder how they're getting away with it or if it's an official affiliation between Playback and the league. could be worth checking out if fans of other teams are doing the same.

Now 1250 lira which seems to be about $45-$50 - getting more expensive than the $25 or so I paid 2 years ago.

I use my subscription via Google Play and still says my next bill on October 25 will be 25 dollars.

I wonder lf Australia doesn't get a pay rise cause we have the most overseas league pass subscribers outside of the US/Canada

Hmm mine is via Apple Store but last year the next bill amount didn't update straight away. Haven't checked mine yet but I got an email saying new amount is 1250 Lira, last year was 900, year before that 600/700.

India looks like it's cheaper this year ~$26 but not sure if I'm bothered going through the hassle of switching
