    NFL Sunday Ticket 2013

    Called yesterday, asked for retention by saying cancel service at prompt. Ended up getting ST (basic, not max) for free and a Genie upgrade for $99.00 (including installation). For this I only had to agree to be a customer for 1 year. Not bad, I was willing to pay $100 for ST and was hoping...

    Aniversary gifts from Directv

    My gift was NCAA March Madness I'm not a big college hoops fan anymore, used to be back in the 80's when most players would actually stay in school for 4 years, but not a bad gift I would say. I believe the price is $69.99. Wish they would give me something like free MLB Xtra Innings or NHL...

    Sunday Ticket discounts

    I was given the same deal plus a little more. I received the $20 off for 6 mths from the package , plus was given HD for free for 2 years and the CSR told me by the time the 2 year period is over HD will probably either be built into package pricing or be free. Essentially beginning this month...

    Sports package question

    MY dad has a similar situation at Lake Tahoe. He gets the CSN California Sacramento King games, but the GSt. Warrior games on CSN Bay Area are blacked out. But as far as NHL and MLB, he gets the CSN Bay Area broadcasts of the Sharks (NHL) and the Giants and A's , since Sacramento has no pro...

    Sports package question

    If I understand your question, since FSN Pittsburgh will not be included as your local RSN and only FSN Ohio will, in order to see the Penguin games, you unfortunately will have to subscribe to the NHL center ice package, as the sports pak package will not include professional sports games, be...

    Sunday Ticket discounts

    Sunday Ticket So, just to clarify , you are paying $180.00 for ST since it is $300.00 - (20x6 = 120) = $180.00 . Is that correct ?

    Unbelievable MLB Package Deal

    MLB Extra Innings Based on what I heard for the individual I spoke with he made it sound that this was for customers that have the "Choice Select" package (not 100 percent sure that was what it was called, but pretty sure). The goal of D* is to get these people to switch over to Choice Extra...

    Unbelievable MLB Package Deal

    For those that received this deal, did you see the channels and your account updated instantly or did it take some time to see them ? I called about 30 minutes ago, they explained it to me and said I didn't have to hold, that it would be taken care of and that I would see the various charges...

    Comcast SN Bay Area

    As a D* customer I noticed that CSN BA 696-1 has had only 1 of the first 4 Giant games in HD. I spoke with someone who has Comcast and they said all 4 of the games have been in HD on Comcast, it's obvious that these games on D* are not offered in HD in order to get people to switch over to...

I am with you, if I receive ST plus SF for under $ 200.00 I'll do it , otherwise NO WAYYYYY...
