Sling TV raises monthly subscription prices by $5.99 starting in December

Sling TV will increase its prices by $5.99 starting in December. The basic packages, Sling Orange and Sling Blue, will rise from $40 to $45.99 per month. The combined package will go from $55 to $61. Current subscribers will see the new prices reflected in their bills after December 20. This marks the fourth price increase for Sling TV in five years. Despite the increase, Sling TV claims it remains more affordable than competitors like YouTube TV, which charges $72.99 per month. However, the price hike may affect its perceived value.
