    You can get a trial period of sling at anytime if you wanted it, unnecessary to come with the tv

    Didn't have good shows, and I personally didn't find it user friendly. Wasn't sad to see it go.

    Contrary Trial Period

    Best Buy emailed the signup (with activation code) for 30 days of free service. After activation, Sling sent an email defining a 7 day trial, with charges starting after 7 days. No long enough to try product, unable to fairly determine if Sling is a product I want, so ended trial with a “bad taste” for Sling and another “free” item from Best Buy.

    Not as many channels as I thought in the blue and orange package. I'll stick to cable and Kodi.

    Sling is okay but we prefer Comcast. We used the trial and discontinued the app on the Samsung hub.

    unlike other subscription services, sling does not offer a do not renew option and charges for a full month if you miss cancellation deadline--be careful--they say 1 month but mean 4 weeks. also, sling is pretty useless if you have a hdtv antenna. feels like i'm dealing with a cable provider again, which i hoped to never have to do again.

    There are better programs out there, like YouTube tv. The user interface is slightly annoying.

    I was unable to get my 30 days free days even though the code was acknowledged as accepted. I spent 2 hours calling sling and best buy trying to solve this problem. I believe the issue was on slings end. In the end the customer service at sling was only interested in getting me to sign up for service rather than help me get my 30 day trial.
