Question

I know this is asked all time but what are you guys using for cable and internet? I need to cut my xfinity bill and be able to watch the Cubs lol Thank you

Answer 1

Well you have to subscribe to the cubs channel or Xfinity to watch the cubs.

@monday not true at all. Xfinity doesn't even have a contract with Marquee and Marquee is not available as a standalone add on.  

---

@monday xfinity doesn’t have the Cubs network yet.

@departure60477 On the radio like 15 minutes ago the announcer said the only way to watch the cubs was Comcast or their channel or go to a bar. I'm Not a Cubs fan and I think them having their own network is stupid. Didnt they learn from the Blackhawks?  

---

@monday hmm. That's very odd. I'm following this very closely and Comcast/Xfinity is the biggest holdout so far. No deal yet for sure. I like the idea but the execution so far has left a LOT to be desired.  

Answer 2

Same here.  

Answer 3

AT&T now (which used to be directtvNow) has the cubs channel!  

Answer 4

I have Hulu Live and streaming and I think it’s included.

@harrington it is, it just may not be running until opening day.

Omg ty I have hulu

@carrol my sister just told me last night. I didn’t even know it was on Hulu  

Answer 5

ATT and direct TV seem to be the only ones with Marquee working right now. huluLive has a contract but it may not be up and running before opening day.  

Comments

We switched to Hulu live a couple months ago from cable and have been mostly happy with it. Definitely happy with the price vs. cable.  

Answer 6

I just called Xfinity yesterday about how to add it to my service and they told me that Xfinity hasn’t come to a contract agreement with the Cubs yet so it’s not available

Answer 7

Omg me too I was so pissed last night. Wanted to watch

Answer 8

I'm looking for the same reason. So far I found mlbtv on amazon $25 a month and we were able to watch the game last night

Comments

@outlandish awesome ty

Answer 9

I’m at AT&T right now & the manager said Direct Tv as of right now is exclusive for the cubs. I’ve been wanting to drop them too- because for football it sucks

Answer 10

We switched from ATT because the internet sucked. We already had Comcast, but upgraded and bundled to xfinity and it was actually cheaper than what we had with the separate internet and cable. We were going to cut the home phone, but that's what made the bundle cheaper. Xfinity for cell phones is cheap, too, but we aren't done paying off the phones we have.

@flaherty703 never never dealing with AT&T or Direct TV again. Never ever.

@gamaliel633 I'd never get dish anything.  

Answer 11

We just called and said it is way to expensive to keep, they dropped up $45, then we went and got ROKU boxes for $30 each and are returning our boxes to save another $30 a month, then steaming thru Xfinity Stream for free. Comcast is the one who explained it to us! So down $75 a month is huge

Answer 12

We have internet through Comcast. I plan on getting Hulu Live to watch the Cubs. I had Sling, but cancelled when they would not have the Cubs network.  

Answer 13

Xfinity just increased my bill another $10. I just have internet with them! I’m not happy!  

Answer 14

We stream everything. Hulu, Netflix, fire stick, etc. We ONLY have internet besides like 5 channels that were supposed to be a perk. We pay almost $130! If anyone knows of cheaper high speed internet I’d love for you to share. Lol

Answer 15

We have Hulu live & streaming and Netflix.
