Okay, so I’ve been using Fubo for a while now, and it’s pretty cool for watching sports and stuff. But the thing is, it gets a bit pricey, especially since I’m not always glued to the TV. So, I got this idea – what if I could share my Fubo account with a buddy or two? We could split the cost, and everyone’s happy, right?
First Steps: Checking if it’s even Allowed
First things first, I dug into Fubo’s terms of service. You know, that boring stuff nobody usually reads. Turns out, they do have some rules about account sharing. They talk about “households” and “simultaneous streams.” Basically, it sounded like sharing within your own home was okay, but sharing with folks outside might be a no-go.
Trying it Out with My Roommate
I decided to test it out with my roommate, Sarah. She’s also into sports, so it seemed like a good starting point. I gave her my login details, and we tried watching different games at the same time. Worked like a charm! We were both able to stream without any problems. Fubo allows for multiple streams at once, so that wasn’t a surprise.
Sharing with a Friend Outside My Home
Next, I wanted to see what would happen if I shared with my buddy, Mike, who lives across town. I gave him my login, and he tried to watch something while Sarah and I were also watching. This time, things got a little tricky. Mike got a message about too many streams being used. It seems like Fubo does track where you’re watching from. So that is what I had done.
What I Learned
Here’s the deal: It’s not that easy. Sharing my Fubo account within my home was not bad. But sharing it with someone outside my home was not acceptable. I was thinking split the cost is an easy thing. But it looks like not that easy.
- Sharing within your household: Seems okay, based on my experience.
- Sharing outside your household: Probably not allowed, and Fubo might catch you.
So, if you’re thinking about sharing your Fubo account, be careful. It might be tempting to save some cash, but you could end up losing your account if you’re not careful. That’s all I have done and learned. Sharing with you guys, hope it is useful for you.
