Just a week after fuboTV announced that it was dropping the $64.99 Starter Plan for new users, the live TV streaming service announced that the tier is now going away for existing users as well. Last night, fuboTV began e-mail affected members that they will no longer offer the Starter Plan and will be migrating members to their $69.99 per month Pro Plan on their first billing cycle after May 1, 2022.
The fuboTV Pro Plan will upgrade subscribers from 250 to 1,000 hours of DVR storage and will allow for up to 10 simultaneous at-home streams. The upgrade also includes a number of new channels including [GAC Family], the Magnolia Network, and for those who subscribed prior to July 31, 2021 — NBA TV, MLB Network, and NHL Network.
Fubo says that they will no longer offer their Starter, Family, Entertainment, Ultra, and Promo bundles, as well as their Fubo Starter Quarterly Plan. Those on the Starter Quarterly plan will see their price increase from $194.86 per quarter to $209.97 per quarter. There are a few legacy plans which did not include bundled offerings that subscribers will be able to keep as long as they remain active.
