    NFL App still missing major cable companies


    Having searched the forums and only found older, unanswered threads, I'm posting one myself.

    Since the introduction of the NFL App for XB1, major cable companies, such as Time Warner, COMCAST and Brighthouse (just to name a few) are conspicuously absent. The list however includes such VERY small companies as Cable TV of East Alabama, serving Phenix
    City and Russell County AL. It doesn't include a major company like Brighthouse, the 6th largest company which services over 2.2 million. Brighthouse cable includes the NFL Network, yet I still can't link the app to them as my cable provider.

    Brighthouse blames the NFL Network and Microsoft; the NFL (website support) blames Brighthouse and Microsoft and Microsoft just says "it's between the two of them; not our fault". This has been going on since the app was released in 2014. Microsoft, please
    add those cable providers who carry the NFL Network for all.

    Thanks.

    :)

    Invalid list of providers for XB1 NFL App- Time Warner missing

    How is it that every major cable provider, as well a large number of small market independent companies, except Time Warner are listed in the NFL app??

    The NFL on XB1 says I have to be a customer who has the NFL Network in order to sign in and use that feature. SInce I have been watching the NFL Network on my TWC service for a few years now, I'm pretty certain that I qualify. Yet, Time Warner is conspicuoulsy
    absent from the list. How does this get updated and who is responsible?

    Opening Night - NFL App - Where's Yahoo?

    The lack of functionality for TWC/Comcast is the NFL's fault. If you try to download the NFL Watch app both cable companies don't appear. However. on the TWC app you can watch the NFL Net there, but only on your home network, which defeats the purpose since
    you can watch it on TV.

    Unfortunately, it isn't Microsoft's call. Time Warner Cable, Bright House and Comcast need to do a deal with the NFL to provide online access to NFL Network and NFL Redzone. Until that happens, there's nothing Microsoft or anyone else can do about it.

    However there is some good news. If you're on Time Warner Cable, you can watch NFL Network and NFL Redzone using the Time Warner Cable app on the Xbox Store.

    good Marketing MS

    About Football/soccer in Europe it's too expensive and there are several leagues....

    In France,two companies bought the right to broadcast french football league for several millions for 4-5 years.One compagny is Canal + it's a TV/cable company and there is an app on Xbox 360.The second it's Orange it's an internet provider and there is
    an app on Xbox 360...Canal + also have the rights for several major football leagues in Europe + the Champion's League.

    I think it's a good move from Microsoft to add apps instead spending millions and millions to buy the rights for several Europeans football league....

    Is the NFL will be broadcast in Europe on Xbox one or is it just in North America ?
