NFL Mobile expiring after Sept 30th?

[PhontomF]

I just started the NFL Mobile app and got a message saying my free preview is over after 9/30 and to subscribe to the premium service to continue. I thought this was free for the whole season?

Verizon and NFL Mobile: Take the NFL Action with You.

Yeah, tons of comments about this on the Android Market. It's gotta be a mistake somehow. Verizon is still advertising it as free.

If I'm not mistaken the app will be free but you need to subscribe to Verizon's video service for $10/month to watch the games/videos, which to me does not seem like free, it seems like $10 per month, which if I'm not mistaken is $10 more than free, which I understand to be $0 per month. But who knows, maybe my math is wrong.

Pretty sure that Shadez explained this in a news post. Something to the effect of "enjoy it for free until sept 30"

I upgraded to a bionic a few weeks ago. At the time the app was saying "upgrade to a 4g device get nfl mobile free all season."

I called vzw to ask how this worked, if it needed to be added to my account or what. I was told if you have a 4g phone after sept 30 it will continue on as it is now.

I was wondering that too. If it shuts down the videos I will raise hell.

Here's where Guidot is referring to: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-applications/170531-nfl-mobile-update.html

When I bought my Bionic, the VZW rep, to her credit, was going through my account looking for things to delete (like VZ Navigator). She suggested deleting VCAST Video, and I said "no, I need that for NFL", and she shrugged and said OK. Never mentioned any promo. I have always accepted (with previous phones) that while the NFL app is free (yes, FREE), VCAST Video is required to fully utilize it.

Well ask I can say is*edited... Is that a no-no? Oh well

CJM: Yes. That's a no-no here.

Cool. Thanks, I just removed the Verizon Video feature from my account. Can't wait to see what happens this weekend....

To watch video is normally free during the offseason. Everything besides video had always been free in the NFL app.
