This company (Sling TV) has an absolutely abhorrent commercial that is played over and over again through the news on channel 7 (5 p.m. - 7 p.m.) I used to watch channel 7 news every night and now I can't due to this offensive commercial. I am sure they are paying a lot for the time slot but you are losing loyal fans.
I was told on CHAT that NESN was available with the sport package but I can ot receive NESN without paying an extra charge. please cancel my subscription and refund my money.
I started watching Sling about 6 years ago. sling is not as great as it once was. I feel badly that I have to tell you because I am not going to keep it. It was only $20. when I got it.
When I signed up for Sling TV they promised me on there web site a promotional deal. After 4 months they are 100% REFUSING TO HONOR there promotional deals. ABSOLUTELY unbelievable ! This company SLING TV is a total SCAM, THERE LIARS AND A DISHONEST company and a bunch of THIEFS ! Do not get ripped off, don't subscribe to Sling TV trust me !
If we are paying for this service it would be nice not to have to sit through 5-7 minutes of commercials when enjoying shows. And half of the shows are all re-runs which they play repeatedly. So it's almost not even worth it.
OMG.
A constant loop of the same horrible commercials every few minutes. I have counted up to 15 at a time.
The addition of all of the unknown channels does not improve the quality of viewing.
I can't do Sling much longer.
I am appalled at the political commercials, slandering and demeaning Democrats. I subscribed to Sling to gett TV, not hideous commercials that make Democrats out to be stooges of some Satanic order. I want to see this stopped and Sling censured for haaving such ads.
every time I switch channels it stops and ask me if i want to update to new version, i need to you tell sling I DONT WANT UPDATE!
Your DVR service has been stellar until this past week. It has missed recording programs at least 4 times and the programs that have recorded show up in the DVR slot with no representative picture. Nothing on my end has changed as far as scheduling. Do better or I’m gone.
Please bring back the Slinger commercials. These new ones are awful. The Slingers were much more creative and the play on words was very entertaining. Thanks!
I've got to race to the remote control to stop my children from seeing your low-class disgusting sleazy idea, somehow you think that this will make us want to try your sling TV? Delusional
What’s funny about these ads is that they first tried to offend viewers with sexual innuendo then resorted to channeling disgusto Roseanne Barr. And that’s funny in sense of being totally bad for business. They must have so many subscribers they need to creep out and alienate some.
Game show network is suppose to be a family channel
Stop with the sexual commercials and teaching it is ok to lie.
If you do not want to go to a party stay how instead of messing up a party for everyone else.
Please resolve whatever contract dispute is needed to get our Fox Sports Regional channel back. Thank you! #foxsportsdetroit
My young daughter and I just saw this disgusting commercial on TV! I wouldn't watch SLINGTV if it was given to me for free! Who thinks of stuff like this? They lost my business and many others because of what they are promoting!
These commercials ad to the devaluation of Americas moral fabric and force people to watch the creepiest tasteless commercials on tv today. Do these fools have any idea whatsoever the business they are losing by offending 7/8 of the population? Just because of these tasteless commercials I will never use this junk company in my lifetime.
I will literally never try your service based on your disgusting commercials.
Your media and decision making departments need to look in the mirror and reevaluate your life choices.
It hasn’t been called “swinging” since Bob and Carol and Ted and Alice. It is called, “the lifestyle.” Why go out of your way to reference a controversial practice from the dark age to gain customers under 65! I just can’t watch it because it nauseates me. But at least it is memorable so that I would never consider using them. It is not funny because “swinging” was never funny in the first place. It is like perpetuating the humor of adultery. Personally, I have never met a “swinger” who had any other method of attracting a willing partner.
I would NEVER use your service. Your commercials are so grossly inappropriate. And I reach tens of thousands of people through social media, spreading the word. You lost alot of potential customers. Inappropriate!
The ads on tv for sling tv are inappropriate, offensive and disgusting. The ads need to be taken off the air, its that simple
Enough is enough
I have stopped watching the channels with these ads because they are so offensive.
Morally reprehensible... must be progressives!
I believe these "slingers" commercials are currently the creepiest ads on prime time tv. Who are they trying to reach? freaks and perverts?
my sentiments exactly. actually, they are the creepiest ads i have EVER seen on mainstream television.
This disgusting commercial creeps up at some point every time I watch television.I had looked at Sling as an option until they started airing this trash.I figure if this is how they advertise that reflects the company across the board.
Well, I’m in the minority here because I think they’re hilarious! You people need to relax and have a sense of humor. This is all clearly done in tongue-and-cheek, good god!
even if tongue in cheek, the ads are creepy in the extreme.
When you need to resort to sexual suggestive advertising, decent folks are very offended and certainly of no attraction to your service. Please consider other advertising options in regards to "Sling" How about David and Golliath. Slinging a stone and killing the giant ie: competition
This is a sick commercial. How can anyone find this garbage acceptable. I will never use their product. Shame on Sling and on these two actors.
Sling ads apparently appeals to their market demographic--trailer trash.
I am in agreement with those finding the "slingers" commercial offensive and thinking about dropping my subscriptions unless it stops. They may be trying to bring in more viewers but they'll lose them also!
OMGoodness...These Sling-er TV Commercials are really getting disgusting. Why is there no one doing anything about them? What message are we sharing...extending to ourselves...and to today's youth? I am really offended...and truly concerned.
Obviously going for the shock factor but a big mistake if sling thinks it will increase there business. I find it very offensive and I'm not a prude. Puts your advertising agency to work on another commercial. How they felt this was appropriate is ridiculous.

I'm glad I don't have young children at home. TV Land, among other network, runs this ad night and day. I've already complained to them but it has fallen on deaf ears. As a Baby Boomer, I have seen a lot of things in life but this is downright disgusting.
networks.
What CEO or company board members would sign off on an advertising campaign such as the commercials that they subject the viewers to? These commercials are disgusting and because of them, I would never even consider purchasing your low-level product. You really should make your commercials focus on the actual product you're selling.
Where is the petition to get this trash off of television? I purposely monitor my children's media exposure because of garbage such as Sling commercials. I won't be satisfied until you are pulled from the air.
If it's TVLand, just go to TVLand.com and file a complaint; otherwise, go to the offending network and complain. You can do this online.
I see what they were getting at, but the sexual "swinging" innuendos are overdoing it. I just heard this commercial come on at 3:30 pm ET. I don't find swinging disgusting. I do think it is wrong, though, and I believe these commercials are inappropriate.
You're an idiot.
I did not intend on purchasing ARMY OU GAME all i did was click EXIT then you charged me for the game and refuse to refund me for your set up its a ripp off
See how simple it is to just change the channel. Easy.
Everyone just take it easy. Kids are not running to their phones or tablets to look this up. Most people born after 1985 don’t even understand the commercial. Stop trying the censor everything on TV. If you don’t like it, change the channel or get rid of Sling, no one is forcing you to watch, are they? Really tired of people telling others what’s offensive and what’s not. One more thing, quit using “ the children” as a scape goat. Here’s a novel idea, there’s a button on your remote that says mute, use it during commercials that’s what I do most of the time.
No one is using children as a scapegoat older people and people with morales don't like it either. Put it on the adult channels.

Well genius these commercials are on regular tv. And I do change the channel. I don't want to see a guy looking at a young lady with the suggestion of sex. What the hell does stupid Sling have to do with sex?
I don't have "sling." Ads appear on the cable I use. You're right..the kids don't understand the commercial; that's why they ask ME. I like the movie I am watching - don't WANT to change the channel. I, like others, am just voicing my opinion; not telling anyone what they should find offensive or not. YOU are the one doing that. Sling apparently thinks that ANY PUBLICITY is good. WRONG!
Hey, Einstein, I don't have Sling, and certainly never will. These vile ads pollute the mainstream tv channels, popping up every 10 or 15 minutes on the channels I watch. They turn my stomach, and I'm no angel.
Clean up your act sling. We are not as filthy and disgusting as you are and want to talk about having swinger parties. They went out in the 70's as being " famous"... you don't need filth to sell your product.
Disgusting, inappropriate, offensive! Such lack of creativity, they resort to sexual innuendos to sell a product. How is this filth ok?
