Derbados Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 That’s absolutely ridiculous, at a time where people have lost businesses, homes and livelihoods the EFL in their total inept wisdom decide to not only raise the subscription fee, they ***** well doubled it!!

DCFC1388 Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Does that £25 monthly price include all games regardless of kick off time & it being on sky or not? richinspain and DesertRam 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rample Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 (edited) Yeah, because that's the way to combat 'free' streaming. Raise the price enough so that even if the numbers drop the income increases. Football continues to price out the average fan.

i-Ram Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 How much was it before? If it was £12.50 per month, or lower, for live video subscription you overseas guys (and IP fraudsters) have been having a laugh.

RoyMac5 Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Who gets the money for us subscribing to RTV? The EFL? Is this one of the things that started Mel & the EFL off at loggerheads? RadioactiveWaste 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brammie Steve Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 (edited) I found a monthly withdrawal for Amazon Prime (£7.99) on my statement last month. Never having (knowingly!) taken out a subscription I queried this with Amazon without success. My bank confirmed that six payments had been made and they cancelled the instruction and issued a replacement debit card. My statement this month shows nothing from Amazon and my bank made six "fraud refunds" totalling £55.94! It always pays to keep on top of income and expenditure. BTW........to double a subscription and hope that the payee accepts it unchallenged seems to border on the immoral. Rams TV charges me £5 per month but I would cancel immediately were it to double!

Is this one of the things that started Mel & the EFL off at loggerheads? I think RamsTV get the money, but the pricing is set by the EFL across all championship clubs so there is no undercutting/price war going on and there's probably some other flimsy moralistic reasons why they do it this way. It also means RamsTV will have to be the same price as the EFL's own "i-follow" service. I also suspect it had to fixed as part of the contractual agreements to stream matches. And yes, this is exactly one of the things that brought Mel to loggerheads with the EFL - Mel and i think Leeds as well were of the opinion that DCFC (and Leeds and a few others) could get a much better deal themselves on broardcasting and streaming and that the EFL were grossly underselling thier product. It does seem the EFL dread and fear upsetting Sky Sports as if there are no other possible outlets for live sports broadcasting. It might have been that way after ITV digital went down the pan nearly 20 years ago, but it's not the way now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosmic Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 I've always thought it was a bit of a steal, so £25 feels fair as long as we remain crap enough to not be selected for Sky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnero Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 It was far too cheap before compared to what UK subscribers have had to pay to watch the same thing. £25 per month to have access to most home and away games for the entire season still sounds a reasonable price. cstand 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
