Sling TV Offers the Blue Bundle for Free in the Evenings
- Sling TV is offering free TV access in the evenings for new customers.
- 'Happy Hour Across America' starts at 5 PM and lasts until midnight.
- The access includes the Blue bundle, and over 50,000 movies and shows on-demand.
Since we are all supposed to spend as much time as possible to help flatten the curve of this pandemic, Sling TV is hoping to help everyone out by providing free TV from 5 PM to midnight every day. New Sling TV customers can sign up for this service that they're dubbing "Happy Hour Across America." You won't even have to fill in your credit card details, so you needn't worry about canceling - just stay home and watch TV online.
The service is opening up its Sling Blue bundle, which regularly costs $30 per month. The service features over 30 channels, including CNN, HGTV, History, AMC, Discovery Channel, NBC, Fox, Comedy Central, and a few kids' channels. The offering includes three simultaneous streams, free cloud DVR, and over 50,000 on-demand movies and shows, on top of the live channels.
The new offering comes as an extension of its “Stay in and Sling” program, which was launched in March, and which already offers free streaming for some channels, including ABC and Fox News.
It is unclear exactly how long the deal will be available, as Sling has no information displayed on its website, but it's expected that this will go as long as necessary, much like the social distancing requirement.
So, if you are new to Sling TV, here is what you should know:
Sling TV is a service that has a lot of customization options available. Orange, Blue, and Orange + Blue are the three bundles usually available and each comes with its own set of perks. For instance, Orange subscribers can only watch content on one device at a time, Blue subscribers can watch on three devices at the same time, and Orange + Blue subscribers get four simultaneous streams. Furthermore, you get to customize your subscription however you want it by adding any of the channel packs they have to offer and any of the available premium networks.
In their "Happy Hour Across America" offering, you can only access the Blue bundle, and for a limited timeframe alone (5:00 PM - 12:00 AM). So get your Sling free TV while it's still available!
