The 12 month thing turned out to be poor wording on their part. After 12 months the billing will change to internal via the T-Mobile account, similar to how Netflix On Us works now, instead of being billed via youtube.

At first we had Philo as well, we had to for HGTV, NickJr, and A&E, but YTTV has added HGTV and NickJr as prices went up at least, and A&E is no longer important to us (RIP Live PD).
If you are happy with what one Sling package provides, it's definitely a better value, but there are clear differences between one Sling package and YTTV that some people will value (additional channels and unlimited DVR).
In a household with a dozen TV's and four active television viewers we do occasionally run into the 3 stream limit, but we can usually work around it with network specific apps (e.g., use ESPN app instead of watching ESPN on YTTV).
It turns out it was easy-peasy but the TMobile information could have been more clear.
Yeah, guess depends on user interests, as always. And amount of users. Sling blue covers most "general interest" channels we watch, but no locals (no issue if you put an antenna and hook it up to the cable feed to the house). The Orange covers less general channels we watch, again no locals, but adds sports. . .but only one feed at a time. Household of 6 here, so would have to buy both the orange and blue @$70 to make things work, and still be missing a few channels, have to run my own antenna for locals, and limited to total 4 streams with 3 of those on Blue. For you maybe it works, for me too much work and limitations. Would rather pay $5 less for Philo and YTTV, locals, and get more DVR and channel options like the wife's WE preference, and everything else. But again my household has a wide range of interests and many users
Thanks for that info. Might try that route or similar for a month, just to come back to Suddenlink as a new customer again for internet only. . .so as to drive the online streaming etc we need to make it happen. I recently grabbed the TMO home internet, but with the nearest 4G tower a mile plus away and the nearest 5G tower 2.5 miles away, it's not quite enough yet to make it happen for home internet option for us yet. I'm hoping that Mid May, after the new shows end, and with nothing sport wise shows up, will be the perfect time to do the transition . . .lol too many kiddos that don't follow that timeframe. . .but I will try. And thanks

I got the $20 off promotion, but as soon as I put in the Tvision code the price changes back to normal.
Enter your tracking ID which you should've received the day you registered for this promo. Once you find where it said approved, click where it says " click here for your reward.
I never received a text with a link, but it's in there.
Figured this will help a lot of people
I have a newbie question.
After I accept terms for the Youtube TV promotion and go to the "Let's register your details" page, do I enter my T-Mobile email address or my current Youtube TV email address?
I have different email addresses for my T-Mobile account and Youtube TV account.
Thanks in advance!
