    Post what DirecTV retention offered you!

    This was last year. $35 off classic, free genie go, free upgrade to hr44, free nfl ticket, free dish upgrade. I have another month before I have to do this again. I go in with pricing from 3 other providers and really don't care if I leave. It's up to them to make the offer I can't refuse.

    Contract end is near

    As your contract come to a end the possibilities start to improve. If all your equipment is what you want then it's time to negotiate. I love this time every year as it can be very rewarding. Remember above all a few things. Be nice to your retention agents as most of them really help...

    Cancel with New Customer Sign-up

    I renew every two years and renew with Retention only. They are great to work with. I paid zero for the HR34 and all the upgrade installation. It certainly would be easier to be a new customer as they give more programming credits. I'm very happy with my agreement.

    how much is your genie(hr34) costing you?

    I too upgrade every two years. I received the HR34, new swm dish connection kit etc for free. Retention was great...Never talk with the CR reps as they can not make the same agreements. I'm very happy with all the credits they gave on top of all the equipment.

    How do I find the beta software information not listed in the CE program. Directv forum said to be careful when doing a forced software download that you might end up getting beta not in the CE listing. I'd like to know what they are...Any ideas?

    new software up date for the hr34 this mornimg 0x5c2

    I wouldn't get too excited on this software. It actually makes the unit much more unstable and adds nothing of any use. It does establish the new brand name" Genie" Just turn it off and go back to what you were doing before...Seems like they are trying to improve their flat bottom line by...
