2DAY20

Cheapest league pass I have come across so close to the season opening. Only 8 days into the season or roughly 4 games per team into the season. Use either a Brasil VPN or Mexican one to obtain the reduced pricing of US $89.99 ($116.75 AUD) and then apply the code at checkout to reduce it to $71.92 US ($93.40 AUD). No VPN is required after a successful sign up to watch games. The package will give you 2 days free to try it and then will charge your card for the season or month. Rates as per XE. Not sure when code expires. Enjoy.

chorong Cheaper to pay in MXN (Pesos) - Comes out to ~1200MXN after the 20% off, which is around 82AUD as per Google rates (using a no international transaction fee card)** - Thanks Chorong

    Great price. Too bad my internet connection isn't good enough for 6000kbps and the replays have ads :X.

    • MadMaxBargainRoad on 26/10/2017 - 14:57

      Boy, you get neg for anything these days.

      the replays have the ads edited out of them after about an hour or so after they finish

      • MadMaxBargainRoad on 26/10/2017 - 17:07

        Right, so they have changed since last time I signed up. Do they have those periods cut out from the clip? They used to simply replace the ads with a default screen.

        • Tm15 on 26/10/2017 - 17:30

          yep they are cut, takes the total game times down to about an hour and a half from around 2 hours

    make sure when you sign up, you untick the auto renewal function!!

    • AnneFagit on 26/10/2017 - 13:40
      +2

      Not completely necessary. If you keep auto renewal ticked, they will charge you the price for the region you last used. Mexico/Brazil/Canada are normally the cheapest ones each year so it means that every year when the send you the email warning of auto-renewal, you can just let them charge you if its still the cheapest. If you untick i'm pretty sure you have to use the VPN to charge the account which puts your details at risk (if you use a public VPN) and effort.
      Ozbargain is not only about cheapest prices but also about minimal effort (opportunity cost).

      • 87percent on 26/10/2017 - 13:54

        wrong

        League Pass auto-renewal happens on 1/9 (https://watch.nba.com/nba/termsofuse.htm) and the cheaper deals come out a lot closer to the start of the season (eg; https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/333629 this deal came out in October)

        So if you leave auto-renewal ON, you'll potentially be charged a lot more

        • AnneFagit on 28/10/2017 - 19:20

          This season, auto-renewal included the 10% discount at the start of the season at my Canadian rate which was about $20 aud more expensive than the Brazilian or Mexican counterparts. So having auto-renewal on this season not only locked in my Canadian rate but also the 10% discount.

          Keep in mind that the three mentioned above are normally the cheapest every year (with the exception of India which doesn't work globally).

          Cost-benefit analysis on everything. Willing to risk your payment info through some free VPN to get another $10 or $20 discount? Not for me either risk or time investment wise, hence why I kept auto-renewal on. Up to you, just trying to show there's benefits to that option for some people too :)

  • ZeroSix on 26/10/2017 - 11:53

    You definitely don't need a VPN to watch the games after you have signed up?

    • Roemac on 26/10/2017 - 14:51

      I had the same problem. Saying my login for nba.com was correct but everytime I went to watch.nba.com it would say my account was locked and wanted to reset my password. After going through this process 3 times, I downloaded the app on my android phone, logged in there and was able to watch games. I then tried Chrome and magically it started working. Give this a go and let me know if it also works for you.

    • Kenb0 on 26/10/2017 - 19:17

      Pretty sure it's because the package available from Mexico doesn't include NBA TV, I discovered same thing today as I usually watch the post game press conferences. My season package from Mexico says it only includes regular season+playoffs, doesn't mention NBA Tv. My package last season from Canada included it so I'm assuming it might just be a regional thing, so depends which one you signed up from

      The Aussie package includes NBA tv but I'm not spending a couple hundred bucks more just for that.

      • Pootie Tang on 26/10/2017 - 19:45

        Mines canadian and no go. Def had it last season.

        • Kenb0 on 26/10/2017 - 19:57

          Would like to hear from other users using some country other than Mexico or Canada and see what they've got. I reckon it's some sort of blackout thing for their local markets from this season onwards, and Mexico and Canada are right next to USA. Maybe if someone who used Brazil or India or Vietnam can chime in, we might know more about it.

        • jutAjool on 26/10/2017 - 21:54

          I'm having same issue with NBA TV not available in my area. Only started this morning. Was working fine last night. My package is through Mexico. First time having this issue. Previous years I've paid via Argentina, India and Canada which all had NBA TV. In all the receipts I have from previous years they all specify "Regular Season + Playoffs Subscription" which is the same as this year's.

          Checked with a friend and his package was via Mexico too and its still working for him.

          I'm going to be missing out on Inside NBA!!!

      Seems to be an isolated device issue. Not sure what to offer for advice especially if you have downgraded. Clear caches, delete/reinstall app etc. If it works on one device, should work on all. Email them if it continues.

    I spent ages waiting to talk to someone via their 'live chat' only to be told I must email them and for then be disconnected without any further chat.

    Writing this post to hopefully save someone some time.

      Good news - they replied to my email within 36 hours advising they would amend their processing error. And 48 hours or so after that, I received a refund of the overcharged amount ($20.81). Very happy with their prompt customer service.
