I’ve read that that if you were given the code by a T-Mobile user, make sure whenever you’re using mlb.tv be on wifi. If you open up mlbtv app with a cellular provider that’s not Tmobile the subscription gets cancelled.

Anyone known if that is true or not?
I just activated mine on AT&T, no wifi.

The T-Mobile customer can generate a code, they sent it, you log in directly with your MLB.tv credentials. No need to exchange any info - for the Amazon GC I buy it for myself and PM my contact the claim code. Nothing outside PMs for us and we both are set again this year. Easy peasy.

Is there quick way of getting this without being a T-Mobile customer? Is sd pm tag the only way?

I have an extra code to share, but have typically asked for $25 to Jimmy Fund for it. Not out to make money. PM if interested.

I am a T-Mobile subscriber and set this up for my iPhone, but can’t figure out how to connect it to the MLB.tv app on my Roku for my TV. I’m pretty sure I did this last year but don’t remember how.

If anyone can help, please PM me and I will owe you one, thanks!

If you hit the TMobile link and signed in via your mlb.tv login (not thr TMobile login), once it logs in you should be set to log in with those credentials on any other device.

Glad it worked! It can be confusing on the TMobile side - the guy I trade with every year thankfully knkws the deal and we just exchange the link for my giving him the gift card code via DM.

I applied the T-mobile promo on my iPad, but then had to logout and log back in on other devices for it to pick up the subscription.

Looking for some help. Reactivating Fubo is going to cost me almost $100/month for the season. Streaming NESN appears to be $30. My son has been able to sign into our Fubo account in Oregon (we're in Connecticut), so long as we're not both using it at the same time. Does anybody know if he will be able to sign into NESN streaming if I go that route?

Thanks. And go UCONN!

So, apparently if you are watching multiple games on MLB.tv, and you go to a different tab in your browser, the non-active games pause. Does anyone know of a way to make this not happen?

Their marketing is pissing me off. I get an email that price dropped, but it dropped only from $150 to $140, while 1/6 of the season is over and still has the blackouts. (Yeah I know about the tmobile),

The whole "your favorite team out of market games" phrase is so out of touch. Most people's (not counting retirees/snowbirds I guess) favorite team is IN market.

The blackout thing will take a long time to do away. There must be a ton of deals with the RSNs and national networks behind all of this.

This is a new one for me. I’m a recent YouTube TV subscriber and, for whatever reason, the game is not available in my area on TBS through YouTube or mlb.tv for me. I thought TBS was a Braves affiliate, but I guess we don’t get whatever channel the game is on. This is why I have zero issue pirating baseball games.

I've done the Mother's Day 1/2 price discount promotion in the past. It was both real and spectacular!

The Sox free nut-punch weekend performances aren't making the wait until Father's Day seem all that terrible.

Thanks, Rob Manfred!

I think they do that on Father’s Day

They did do it on Father's Day as well. Mother's Day discount was roughly 50%. Then discounted even further on Father's Day. But it looks like what they did this weekend was provide free streaming of all out-of-market games through Sunday.

Hopefully they do the Father's Day deal.

(I regret falling asleep on the T-mobile thing.)

My Fire stick app hasn't worked in over a week. When I try to talk to customer support, I'm told no agents are available and to try again later. Great product, MLB!
