    NFL Sunday Ticket 2014/2015 Season - Discuss Pricing/Discounts/Offers

    Got Sunday Ticket Max for 1 time $50 charge and to offset it they gave me $10/mo off for 1 year and $5/mo off for 2 years with a 1 year contract extension. They had originally offered to offset the charge with a $100 Visa card but I close the monthly credits instead. I have been a customer for...

    Samsung RVU setup/review

    ?Have the same tv in my kitchen. Had the EXACT same experience trying to get it added to my account, right down the the hang up! Mine forces me to be connected with Ethernet and will not work over wifi. I splurged on the RC71 remote on amazon for $7 http://amzn.com/B00D96J8IM , although the...

    changed from choice xtra to choice, charged for both?

    That's what I ended up having to do. It took 3 calls - 2 just asking for billing and the 3rd asking for retention. Each call lasting about 45 minutes. Great way to spend my day. Thanks for the input

    changed from choice xtra to choice, charged for both?

    I just got my bill and noticed it was about $70 more than it usually is. Last month I changed from Choice Xtra classic to choice. I called Directv and they said it was because I had access to both choice and choice xtra classic last month and that there were no supervisors to help me so they...

    Create separate MRV networks

    Thanks for all the info. Ill order one of the band stop filters. Could I disable one of the tuners on one of the DVRs to get down to 8 tuners on one side? One of the DVRs is in the kitchen and barely gets used. I actually have another cinema connection kit I could use, buy I'm thinking I might...

    Create separate MRV networks

    I'm guessing this has been asked before, but after searching for about a half hour and not finding it so I'm going to ask. I have 5 DVR's (HR34, 2xHR24s, HR22, HR21) and SWM16. Is there a way I can isolate MRV so 3 DVR's are on one "network" and the the other two are on another "network"...

    Upgrade to HDDVR for free

    I went through with the order and it forced me to pay for the $49 professional installation. I called directv right after and they were able to change it to ship it out for self install for $19. I tried for the C31 but no luck. I've tried to get a discounted one a few times and they are adamant...

    Upgrade to HDDVR for free

    What I would really like is a C31 for my kitchen to get the reciever I have there off of my counter. I noticed that if I pick a HD Reciever, that I am offered that for free too( but I can only get one or the other). If I can't get a C31, I would definitely y take a HDDVR to replace my HD...

    Upgrade to HDDVR for free

    When I logged in to my account today, I noticed that there was an option to upgrade to a hddvr for free. It doesn't give me an option to directly upgrade one of my current receivers, but could I order this, then return one of my HD receivers I can't think of any reason why not, am I missing...

    Directv dispute with Viacom IS OVER!

    Is there a list of what channels changed packages because of this? From what I can tell, MTV2, VH1, and Spike are no longer available on Choice and Nick Toons now is. That's just from me comparing Directv's Site to the list on the sticky on this forum so I could be off or completely wrong

    DirecTV offers to customers who complain about dropped Viacom channels

    Just got off the phone with them. I was able to Sunday Ticket Max and $10 off for 2 years. I was trying to hold out for a HR34 but they wouldn't budge. Not as good as some have gotten, but not bad either!

    Pandora

    I got the update last night but haven't had a chance to play with it. Are you locked to 1 Pandora account per receiver? My wife and I listen to completely different music so I anticipate this being a problem.

    Online Streaming DVR or VOD

    Ive been playing with Directv2pc at my office, trying to get it connected to my home dvrs but haven't had any luck. I am connected to my home network via VPN, but from what I have been able to find, it looks like the directv2pc software is smart enough to know not to multicast to a secondary...

    DirecTV & Starz

    I feel as though every time I contact Directv about anything on my account especially changes to programing, they are very quick to offer me 3 months free of Starz, most of the time without even asking for anything.. Does DirecTv get that good of pricing from Starz that its not a big deal for...

    Swap HD recievers for SD DVRs

    I wouldn't be looking for any savings at all, just looking to have DVR in the additional rooms, where I am not using my current boxes for HD. I still have two HD DVRs in other rooms on HD TVs... Looks like from all the responses that I backed myself into a corner by opting for HD receivers...
