Comcast Subscribers, Ireland, Philippines, Lithuania Cut Access to NBA League Pass Games

By Andrew Meyer on March 6, 2008

I'm a Comcast high-speed Internet subscriber and I haven't been able to view live (or archived) NBA games on the NBA's League Pass Broadband site for over a week.

For awhile I just thought that my saved log-in info needed to be re-entered. But that doesn't seem to be the problem since I re-entered my correct Comcast account number and still get this message:

nba league pass denied message

It seems that Comcast subscribers like myself aren't the only ones who have been cut access to watching live games on the site. If you go read recent comments on my previous post you will see that people in Ireland, Philippines and Lithuania have also been cut access too.

Comment from reader in Ireland:

"I dont have comcast as i live in ireland, ive been able to watch the games every night on league pass this season up until yesterday."

In Philippines:

"I never had a problem with the League Pass up until Feb 28 or 29. Maybe NBA just discovered that there was a bug with League Pass and they decided to fix it. Bummer!"

I haven't heard anything in the news, online or on the League Pass site about this. Does anyone know what is going on?
