In the last gravitating episode Everything is more expensiveFubo raised prices for all its English plans for $ 5 for new customers. The campaign includes the main FUBO plan, which was launched only in early December.
In the statement of about Stream (which For the first time reported News), Fubo accused of increasing the costs of increasing programming costs. “Regular prices for English-speaking plans increased by $ 5 due to increasing costs from our programming partners,” the representative wrote. “We make adjustments only if necessary, and we strive to maintain the competitiveness of FUBO, ensuring that our subscribers have access to the channels, functions and living events that they like.”
Currently, the changes have established the cheapest FUBO plan (the aforementioned Essential Bundle) in the amount of $ 85 per month, a little more than $ 83 on YouTube. Last raised his fees for $ 10 a month In early December – compared to the monthly price for 35 US dollars made their debut with In 2017.
In addition to the main plan, FUBO $ 85, Streamer offers a professional plan that technically stands the same. But its angle lies in the fact that, unlike the main things, it includes regional sports networks, which add mandatory fees up to $ 16 per month to the basic price.

New registrations receive 25 dollars from the first month of the main plan and $ 20 with Elite or Pro. Meanwhile, you can save $ 8 on the plan of Latin American. Just remember that full prices will enter into force after this single month.
