Full research notes
An archived copy of sling.com from March 19, 2022 invites new customers to try Sling free: its offer details say the trial ends 3 days after account activation. The next archived copy, March 22, 2022, drops the trial links and instead offers $10 off the first month (prepaid, not available with a free trial). Sling ran some time-limited trials afterwards (for example an August 1-20, 2022 trial), but no standing trial; its current plan page says “there’s no free trial for Sling” and points to the 1 Day Pass and Freestream instead. Dated on or before the first archived copy without the trial.
