I received the "Your programming will change soon. Call us" message as well. I called DirecTv and the CSR could not find anything that was due to change. I subscribe to the Xtra package as well.

You will hear from DirecTv before they turn off your service. They will offer you some great deals. DirecTv is again bleeding subs this quarter .

DirecTv is awesome. The HR34 is much faster than my old HR20. Comcast is light years behind DirecTv. I still find this hard to believe since Comcast owns the Internet pipe. It is good to be back with DirecTv.

The HD only Dish America packages are no longer offered on the Dish website. Are the packages no longer being offered? I just cancelled DirecTv and I was going to signup for the base Dish America package.

I am receiving $54 dollars in discounts from D* off of my normal bill of 92.00. I have TC+, HDDVR, SD Receiver. I like D* but not for $92 a month. My family only watches a few channels which are available on Dish America for $35 + 6 for DVR. This August when my discounts expire I will switch...

Downgraded Package Today Today I downgraded my HD DVR Choice Plus Package to the Family Package. I am tired of the yearly price increases for the handful of channels that I actually watch. I was paying close to $85 (package +2 receivers) a month. Lately I have been watching more and more TV...
