I live in Victoria and used GameCentre a couple seasons ago. A caveat with GameCentre is that it has a reverse regional blackout effect. For example if the Canucks were playing the Flames, it would recognize that I was in that region (canucks) and wouldn’t be able to watch the game. This was during a period of time where i decided to cut the cord and just use streaming services.

About halfway through the season something erred and all of a sudden my pc and ps4 app determined that I wasn’t in the BC region anymore, I was in the Alberta region. As a result I couldn’t watch any Flames game whatsoever since it was “blacked” out. Rogers stated that it was a Telus issue (my internet provider at the time), Telus claimed it was a rogers issue. Then rogers claimed it was an nhl.com issue, and didn’t solve the problem.

No refund offered, no compensation offered for missing half the season.

The whole debacle made me get cable again, leading to a centre ice subscription. I’ll never get GameCentre again
