SLING TV is billed on a monthly basis, unless you signed up with a prepaid service offer. As a SLING TV customer, you will be billed in advance at the beginning of your 30-day service period. The day of the month your bill is charged is based on the date you signed up. For example, if you signed up on November 7th, your bill will reoccur 30 days later on December 7th. Payments are automatically deducted from your valid debit or credit card on file.

Frequently Asked Questions
How am I billed if I change my subscription?
Your regular billing cycle date will remain the same if you change your subscription.
How am I billed if I add programming?
Charges for any add-ons are collected immediately, at a prorated rate for the remainder of your monthly service period. You can begin viewing your new programming within minutes if not immediately. On your renewal date, you will be charged the full price for your new service.
How am I billed if I remove programming?
If you choose to remove an extra service that you currently subscribe to, the change will take place on your renewal date, meaning you will be able to watch your previous subscription until that time.
Can I change the day my Sling TV payment gets taken out each month?
You can! Customers with monthly Sling TV subscriptions can now change their billing date. Please select Contact Us at the very bottom of this page, and our agents will be happy to assist.
