Current Sling users can expect a small price increase on their monthly bill for the cable replacement service.
Sling TV Review: Plans, Price, Channels & Is It Worth It?
Some Sling customers have begun receiving emails warning of a small price increase to their monthly bill. According to the email sent to a Lifewire representative, Sling's Blue and Orange service plans will be increasing in price to $35 per month.
This price is something the company originally introduced to new customers in January. However, subscribers who had the service previously were protected from the price increase thanks to Sling's one-year price guarantee. That guarantee period is now ending for many subscribers.
In January, Sling TV Group President Michael Schwimmer noted that the company would also be increasing the amount of free storage available through Sling’s DVR service, in addition to the price increase. Schwimmer also explained the price change at the time, saying that Sling had to raise its own prices because networks were increasing the amount they charged the company for access.
