YouTube TV Rolls Out Select $10 Monthly Credit as Disney Channels Stay Dark

YouTube TV is offering a limited, opt-in discount to calm subscriber frustration during the Disney blackout.

Overview

  • Eligible users can claim a $10 reduction for six months by visiting Settings > Membership > Manage Plan on the desktop site.
  • The offer is being deployed gradually, so many subscribers will not see the credit immediately.
  • This discount is separate from a previously mentioned $20 credit that YouTube TV said it would grant if the outage lasts an extended period.
  • Disney networks including ABC, ESPN, and FX remain unavailable on YouTube TV, and recordings from those channels have been removed from cloud DVRs.
  • YouTube accused Disney of taking an "unnecessarily aggressive" stance in negotiations, as some viewers report missing college football and consider leaving the service.
