just curious...but...
How do you guys do this? I've had DirecTV since 2001. Do you just call them up and say you want a discount?
or what?
pause a lot when you are talking to them
SDPF, if you've been paying full boat for ST since 2001. You should call them up and ask for the next 4 years free and lifetime HBO. They won't fight back. They might even throw in a free flat screen.
Hey SDPF I have some sweet ocean front property for sale, really really cheap.
Granted it's not ocean front at this moment, but just think how this property will increase in value once global warming pushes the left coast to New Mexico and your house in San Diego is a giant aquarium piece. Call me.

Call them and tell them you were thinking of canceling the NFL Sunday Ticket. They will find plenty of discounts for you, especially being a subscriber since 2001. If you've never had the NFL Ticket, I'm sure you can get a "trial run" for free this year. I try to call about every 6 months to find out about special discounts for current subscribers, there is always something.
Call to cancel.
Whatever the first person offers, reject it, ask to speak to a supervisor because if you don't get a better deal, you're cancelling.
Next time I'll take the Genie, Boris. Just too many show on current DVRs that I'd lose, espcially that Packer-Bear game that I've watched a dozen times. Never gets old.
I had this great episode of "Who wants to be a millionaire" recorded that I had to give up when I switched to Genie.....though sorry for the loss of that recorded show....everyday has been like Thanksgiving since I got the Genie!
Just a question. I dont have DTV (have cable) nor do I have a smart phone. But I'm wondering what happens with Sunday Ticket IF ATT is successful in acquiring DTV? Will that impact how Sunday Ticket is priced and will it allow ATT users to watch games on their smart phones and tablets? I dont know if the Max package talked about earlier allows that. Just curious what you all think will happen when/if ATT buys DTV.
THIS will probably happen.
just curious... but... since we're asking questions...
when you go to the grocery store and the bill is $21.45 and you give them two 20s because that's all you have... should I wait to see if they give me change? I've been shopping for 25 years and I was always afraid to ask...
Jesus ****.

are you always this rude and sarcastic? Jeebus, get a life.
I read that way to fast
This is my jovial side. Sometimes I can be a real prick.
just curious... but... is it possible to sarcastically ask someone if they are being sarcastic? wouldn't that be... a double negative... or something?
is there a way to be sarcastic and kind?
I get it...you are jealous of the way I write...come up with your own shtick...

Terrible song, along with their stupid Roboto sh!t.
just curious... but... since we're asking...
how is it possible to have time actually on your hands? do you paint it on? does time fall into your hands? what does it feel like? how do you know it's there? how quickly does it pass from your hands to wherever it goes next? how much is too much?
just being kindly sarcastic... or rudely serious... i'm not sure...

The same way you can save time in a bottle.
pretty sure it's "come up with your own stick."

I guess maybe I had a Hauser moment (where's he been lately anyway?). Anyhoo, I just thought if it could not already be done that by AT&T acquiring DTV that could put Sunday Ticket games on smart phones and tablets that would be good for those AT&T customers who for whatever reason cant watch games from their TV. They could watch from their phone while out and about doing whatever took them away from their TV set. Good business for both companies.
Did not mean to start a rucus. So I'll just shut up and take my Hauser moment punishment. LOL.

Try the grapefruit technique.
Just went back to DirecTV last night. Free Genie upgrade, free Sunday Ticket and Sunday Ticket Max (not even sure what that is exactly), three months free HBO Showtime and Starz, $100 debit gift card, and Choice Package for $53 per month.
I asked for free Sunday Ticket in 2015 also. They told me to call back next year for that.
ST MAX is the ability to stream the games to your laptop plus HD, blah blah blah
You get ONE login on ONE device. You won't be able to login on multiple devices with the same acct. Yeah they have it locked down (shocker!)
Could I use multiple devices, but only one at a time...or is it one device, end of story?
I just called and got the Sunday Tickler for free! But I'm starting to wonder if I dialed the wrong number.
It's possible. Did they charge you $3.99/minute for the call?
Yeah, and I can only use it with one device.
According to DirecTV, the streaming version of NFL Sunday Ticket is available for those in an apartment building where DirecTV isn't supported, as well as those living in New York City, Philadelphia or San Francisco. The service is also available at ten colleges: University of Washington, University of Texas at Austin, University of Southern California, University of Michigan-Ann Arbor, University of Florida, University of Colorado at Boulder, University of Alabama, Syracuse University, Ohio State University and Harvard University.
Dammit! I just gradjuwated frum Harvard.
I had Sunday Ticket for years without paying for it. I tried again this year and they wouldn't budge. I didn't work too hard at it but the truth is I rarely watched the Ticket anyhow. GB is always my local game and the best games are on national TV most of the time anyhow. I will miss the Redzone channel but whatever.
If DTV doesn't add the Pac-12 Network soon I will leave them all together. I am hopeful now that ATT&T has bought them out.
Really? I got free Sunday Ticket Max, Genie upgrade, HBO/Showtime/Cinemax for three months and a $200 VISA card.
Really? I got them to cover my mortgage payments for 18 months, free tire rotations, a 1 year executive Costco membership and lawn service (no leaf blowing)
After several phone calls and also set up a shutoff date, said I would go to TWC or Verizon never heard back from DTV, I called them back 1 week later, said they would waive the first two pymts. of 39.95 and give me ST max for 2 months, said that was best they could, take it or leave it since they gave me free ST the last 2 years. Definitely tougher to get a deal this year. (took it)
Called about ST. Been a subscriber for 11 years offered me $43.00 off total.. wouldn't bargain after that (nasty woman) she removed ST from my charges.
Would it be worth trying to discuss with someone else there???
