Possible Game Pass Scam

I only post this to either: warn people of a Game Pass scam, or alert folks that there seems to be quite a sale on Game Pass.

Here's one link: https://nflhdtv.net/#

And here's another: https://nflqhdtv.com/index.html

I have no affiliation with these companies. But since the season is about to launch I thought this deal was fishy and wanted to warn folks.

Edit: I sent a request for information at the support section of the official NFL Game Pass site.

Edit: I received a response, as follows:

"https://nflhdtv.net  is ReaL
Ticket: https://livetv.freshdesk.com/helpdesk/tickets/1342"

The whole GamePass is good for those who work and can't see the games, but if you want live games each week you need NFL Sunday Ticket from DIRECTV, yeah it's expensive, but worth it to see every 49ers game each week, of course if you live in SF/Bay Area you don't need it, myself I need it being from NY.

I saw the ad and subscribed, was sent to the site http://digitaldirecttv.com/tv/. It has ESPN and its' off shoots, AMC, Showtime, NFL.com, Golf Channel, Cricket, Rugby, CBS, NBC, ABC and others. I got the deal for $27. I don't know if NFL games will come on the site at this time. However. with all the channels it's great, all in high def. At this point even if I don't get games it's well worth it and is a keeper. I'm in India and the price for NFL Sunday Ticket has rose almost 50% in the last 2 years. In the States I was paying over $150 a month for DirectTV, without adding on the $350 for NFL Sunday Ticket. Paying $27 for the entire year is a steal, That wouldn't even pay for one week with DTV. I'll keep everyone updated if I get the games, no replays everything is live. I don't know if the offer is good only for International customers.

Just another note, I also subscribed to NBAIndia this past season. I received all the games plus playoffs for 999 rupees, that's less than $20 for the season.

Well, I spoke with my wife and we decided, since we've been scammed a few times, we're too paranoid to do anything but the regular Game Pass, and not this seeming Game Pass partnership thing.

It's weird that I couldn't go to the Game Pass site, put in the discount code, and get the discount.

I've done the game pass in the past and it was fun to stay on top of the teams that were on our schedule.

I haven't been this excited since the Harbaugh era.

Thanks for the video. I always thought that during our 3 year run we never came up with just one play that would've won it for us. Getting caught up in the speed of the game we overlook certain things. It all boils down to entertainment and ratings, the people in the Ivory Towers know what's best for us.

they're not, unless you're out of the country, or pretend to be via VPN

last year I did the game pass to see the preseason games - then was bummed when I realized the season games weren't broadcast live. How do you "pretend to be via VPN"??

I stream NFL Redzone for $15 a month through Sling tv. But I don't know if Gamepass or Ticket are available.

This is the company I use …
https://www.goldenfrog.com/vyprvpn
Why - there's many reasons … however the the main selling point: it's based/registered in Switzerland.
Which means, Swiss law(s) -- as stipulated with regards to the Internet -- applies in most situations …

Since I don't know what you do, or don't know/understand, I won't continue … but instead at your leisure:
https://www.goldenfrog.com/vyprvpn/why-vpn

FYI: Before Game Pass was available in the USA, it was strictly an international NFL product. The pricing for GP outside
the USA is higher than the domestic version … but the product/service itself, is as good or better than "Sunday Ticket" (IMO).

e.g. - If I wanted to do the season "on-the-cheap", I'd fire up the VPN, login from the San Francisco server, or whatever city
the team is playing in, and watch the game. My cost for the season, $99.00/€85.00. No "bells or whistles", with just the ability
to view one team on-the-season, which is set at the outset of the subscription.

After deciding to watch last season on-the-free (free streams, 'cause of a mini-NFL strike) … it's back to my regular routine,
which is - subscribe to Game Pass (Int'l), for € 239.99 (or 4 x €60.00 instalments until 31 July 2019). It includes:

• any & all games on demand, during the 2018-2019 season
• no black-out rules (only UK and Ireland apply)
• all 22 view
• DVR of games
• RedZone
• NFL Network
• multi-screen viewing

And all of the other NFL programming

I checked before posting this, and it looks as if DirecTV, and Sunday Ticket combined, are more expensive than NFL Game Pass (Intl).
NFL Game Pass (domestic), is kinda' restrictive … and beyond the pre-season, is not the best deal for the money. So, if you wish to read
up on the GP (Int'l Package) before you subscribe, respond to the PM I sent. You can either use a free VPN service, or I'll hook you up to
use mine.

This way, you can see how it will work -- in reverse of how I use it -- for yourself …

NFL Sunday ticket is worth it. Having to deal with Direct TV and it's ever escalating bill for garbage programming and horrible customer service the rest of the year is not. Ive been a customer for 10 years now and ive officially had enough. NFL Sunday ticket should be it's own entity and you should be able to buy it with any or no programming. Having to sign a contract with a satellite company you're not going to watch for the rest of the year is crap.

The tickets is now it's own entity, no satellite services needed
