League Pass Early Bird Offer

[christuffa]

Hi,

On the NBA home page there has been a link for a while now to get the early bird offer on League Pass. I'm in Australia and when I click on it I am directed to a link to enter my email to be notified when League Pass is available.

Could someone from the US please click the link and tell me if it lets you register or if it also sends you to the box to put your email in. The link is the bottom of the 6 main articles that show up when you visit www.NBA.com

Thanks
Chris

When I click on the link, it offers Broadband League Pass for an "early bird" rate of $109.95.

The offer must not be available in Australia, unfortunately.

[nba is the worst]

What's irritating to me is how much the price has increased over the last 2 seasons vs when I joined...

I just want a clean signal when I plunk down my 100 bucks.

I am on the cell right now and so I cannot see when you posted this. But ILP is up in Europe so I am kind of surprised they didn't put it up "down under" yet. When you think of how much Stern wants to promote the league internationally, it's kind of weird they don't just put it up simultaneously. I mean, technically it should be possible. Also, there is no early bird offer for us international fans.

Ah, now I see you posted this on Oct. 16. Is it up by now?

They made me very angry with their "auto-renew" without an option to not do it. They canceled my order promptly at least. (I'm getting League Pass through my cable company instead of just the broadband package this year)

  I had nba league pass last year and was pretty annoyed that I couldn't watch the Celts games since it detected that I was in the Boston area.

Exact same situation here - I can get Cable LP this year (finally!) but they set my Broadband to auto-renew.  Luckily I caught it in time and to their credit they wiped it immediately.  But what a crappy policy, especially since I gave them my dump email that I rarely check.

For some reason Omaha is considered part of Denver's home market. Despite the fact that we don't get any sort of local broadcast for any NBA team.

I was worried they wouldn't since according to their official FAQ they won't refund money for cancelations.

I know I could dispute it with my card company but that's always a pain.

Speaking of which I need to call my cable company this afternoon to get signed up for the package....

  That's quite a large home market.

Well where do you live? If you live in New England and get CSNNE, that makes sense.

I live in NYC and all Knicks/Nets games are blacked out on the LP and NBATV.

same thing in Abuquerque - and Turner won't give a meaningful response or fix it...

Denver has their own cable package that you must suscribe to seperately from NBA LP. I think it is called Altitude or something. Maybe it is only available through the Dish Networks. If they lose Melo and Billups retires, they might as well be contracted.
