Here’s a new promotion for anyone looking to cut the cord, or who has already canceled cable their subscription. The live television streaming service Sling TV is giving anyone who creates a new account free access to more than 50 popular live TV channels every night from 5pm to midnight local time. It’s called Sling TV Happy Hour Across America.
All you have to do to create an account is enter your email address, ZIP code, and a password. No credit card is required to sign up. It’s just free TV for a seven-hour block of time each night. The company hasn’t said how long the deal will last.
