I can understand the sentiment, but every time I see this come up I think of my car.

The dealer where I bought my last car at a couple months ago, is offering better deals now on the same exact car.

Did I get screwed?

Like Rad said call and talk polite and see what they will offer
Good luck hope you stay with Directv

True what not give premier deals I have premier along with Center Ice MLb extra innings and HD Sunday ticket give me a break please

Thanks for those tips. I have MLB IE too, I forgot to mention that since it hasn't billed me since last Baseball season, but I guess I will see the bill for that soon too.

It should be on your current bill as a charge of $0.00.

That's just for the first three months then it jumps to $15. They have some awfully funny bits on that channel besides the true porn at night.

I've had Premier for three years and they've offered me nothing other than price breaks on HD DVRs.

The programming freebies go to people with smaller packages--free Showtime for a few months or whatever. They do that to try to induce you to subscribe.

If you moved to a smaller package and asked for a break, you'd probably end up getting some of the movie channels free for a while. But maybe not, who knows.
