Verizon Cuts Monthly Fee to Let Customers Watch Live NFL Games

 


This season Verizon is making NFL games available for its customers and surprisingly, there will be no extra fee. This feature previously cost $5 to the customers.

It is not just favoring sports fans but is actually attracting more customers by introducing such plans. With this feature, customers will be likely to use more data which will increase the usage needs. The telecom service also wants its customers to hook on streaming video as it has released Go90 which incorporates full TV episodes having a tie-up with Vice, Scripps Network and Viacom. On demand content will also be available from ESPN as well as CBS and few others.

Last season, the carrier didn’t charge any additional fee to its customers on the More Everything data plan. This plan is a bonus for sports lovers as they can enjoy every NFL game over a Verizon app for free. In addition, US mobile streaming rights of NFL games is owned by Verizon Wireless until 2017. A 4-year deal of $1 billion has been signed with the league that also includes a sponsorship component. 

The package is for all Android, Windows and iOS users. The best part is that the download is free regardless of the carrier and offers the access to news and leagues highlights, analysis, scores, etc. Only Verizon customers can take advantage of the benefit of watching live NFL games. 

Like before, an additional fee of $1.99 will be charged for the premium RedZone service that would provide highlights of all games while it happens.
