Is there a way to get "Verify your home area" less often?
It so often doesn't work. I don't get why Google asks so often. I'm paying ~$70 per month so they shouldn't block me from watching local channels.

I have the same problem when I try to watch YTTV on my laptop, but never an issue on my Roku, tablet or phone. Support was no help, it gets really frustrating, especially considering that I'm paying top dollar for the service

Login from your phone on occasion. I can’t remember the last time I had to verify my location.

I have never seen this before. Something doesn't sound right.

I've never had to do this either.

Youtube TV has to be used in your home area every 3 months to continue access to locals.
If you are in your home area just go to settings on your phone and click update area
If you are at college or something and away for more than 3 months you have to have someone login for you... most people that are away at college go home at least once every 3 months for holidays

They are required by their contracts with the broadcasters to go off of your physical location, not your billing address.

Just trying to steal your money, typical move

They know the ZIP I used for my credit card so they shouldn't not allow me to watch local channels.

What device are you watching on, and are you traveling outside your home area?
On the fire tv devices, you just have to sign in once every 90 days from an ip in you home area to get access to your local channels.
I never use YouTubeTV when traveling so this is annoying.
