Discounted price under $199 . Longtime ST subs. Rarely watch RZ.
I called last year for the 1st time to get a ST discount.
Called again this summer and got a discount.
Both times, spoke to Retentions and got the discounts within a few minutes.

$134.00 (6 month 20 off plus a one time 64 credit). Got it 2 weeks into the season after previous calls were not productive. I had already gotten free Red Zone previously.
You mean for the first 2 weeks of NFL 2010 Season?
And then you just added the full NFL package?
So 60 minus, $319?
Thats about the same as me, Just mine was a 1 time credit, and yours spread out.:up
I would have accepted that too.
4 Payments of $63.99 was my offer.
You did it I see . Kind of anyway . Here is my answer ......No RedZone by itself but , got with the " Ticket " when I got the " Ticket " for $ 250.00 plus a 1 time lump credit of $ 80.00 and another $ 30.00 credit for who knows but , I had the " Ticket " for all of that until I did not have it for all of that so um , well , originally I had the ' Ticket " for $ 259.00 until I did not have it for that and DAMN does your head hurt yet ?? True story ! Bottom line , they are idiots and liars at Directv , DEPENDING on whom you talk to . UHGGG !! I need an Advil And HEY ....Let's watch tv

Yea, I was aiming for the 20.00 for six that was going around but I have other credits as well, so I was not trying to go overboard
I had a $10 for 6 month Sports pack offer that prevented me from getting it for $195. OH well. I think I just won't accept any offers untill next football season, Maybe I'll get if for less the $200 or even free.
Called a couple months ago asking for specails on NFL. Best offer they gave me at that time was $59 for 6 months and some free movie channels. They didn't even offer the $10 or $20 off for 6 months, but I didn't push it. I said can I get that redzone channel seperate like on dish, I mostly watch that anyway, held for about a minute, and was offered it free.
I would gladly pay for it as part of sports pack or someting seperate at a resonable rate, but them giving it as a courtesy is great.

Don't apply to ST and never will. This has to be the worst case of return on price of any package on any provider. You pay more for this than any other package, and unlike the other sports packages which have games on everyday throughout the day, ST is only active for 1 day a week and for only two different time blocks during that day.
It is also on fewer weeks than any other sports package. You get around 10 times fewer games than EI and pay almost twice as much for it.
256 total NFL games and over 60 are not on ST at all (meaning less than 200 are shown on ST), and about 4 of those games each week do not require ST. This means over 100 games, nearly half, can be viewed without ST. So ST only offers a little over 1/2 of the 256 games that cannot be seen elsewhere.
MLB plays 2,430 games each year (nearly 10 times more) and the overwhelming majority of them that are seen on EI cannot been seen on other channels.

DEMAND .....
Being the most popular sport on the American soil can allow them to do that.
