Emdog Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 “I can assure that this season, the fans will be extremely happy and excited watching the games...." We use True wireless & get True TV site add on included in base price. Have been watching enough EPL on Bein sports (dual language too). That seems to be gone, no community shield game, for example. Now I am not extremely happy, contrary to this infomercial's claim. I might switch to Spanish or German leagues. I'm a Yank, so although I prefer EPL, my DNA allows me to make my own football choices. Call me cheap Chuck if you must Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonnapat Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 There is a massive drawback for football fans with these new arrangements. The fact that the be-in sports channels will now be dropped by True from 10 August will deprive us from the live coverage of Spanish, Italian and French football. There is now only one choice left and that is the EPL. For me a lose- lose situation with no choices. Probably there is another way to view football in Thailand and I would be glad of any advice from members Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a subscriber to a more basic package I get to pay 399 a month (as shown in the advert above) for something that cost me 299 a month for the last three seasons. I make that a 33% increase in price, can't wait to see what exactly they are going to add that will make me "extremely happy" to be paying that increase.
