Sling TV is a live streaming service that lets users watch on-demand content over the internet.
It offers significantly cheaper pricing than the top competitors. It is also compatible with all major streaming devices.
However, many feel that Sling TV is lately bombarding them with advertisements and commercials during live TV programs.
Sling TV playing commercials during ‘live TV’ programming
Some users have been reporting an issue where Sling TV starts playing commercials or ads during live TV shows and games.
According to reports, Sling TV suddenly cuts to the commercials in the middle of the game and plays the same ad repeatedly.
Sometimes, it stays stuck on playing ads and never gets back to the regular programming for a small section of users.
It is quite frustrating especially for many sports fans as the commercials come in the way of their live watching experience.
Official acknowledgment
Thankfully, Sling support has commented on the issue and said the developers are working on it.
While a fix already seems underway, it is still unclear if and when the problem will be resolved.
We hope the developers find out the root cause of the issue where Sling TV is playing commercials during the live TV programming and fix it as soon as possible.
We will keep tabs on the issue and update this space so make sure you stay tuned for more information.
