I can get the max for $99, but I don't want the redone that bad.

Out of contract. I have been a customer since 2008.

Just got off the phone with retention. I ended up getting the hr34 for free and NFL Sunday ticket for free. I already had the hr24-500, so I will relocate it to my bedroom and return the hr24-100. I suppose the only downfall is a 2 yr contract, but I feel I got a good deal.

My contract is up, so I do have some bargaining power. I personally love direct, but it looks like a call to the retention dept.

Ok, it's that time of year to haggle to get a lower price. I usually check out post here prior to calling for tips. However, I can't seem to find them. Anyone have any suggestions to get a lower price? Thanks in advance!

I called to get an hr35 and the rep said they are not available for my area yet. Any way to know when they will be available for Chattanooga area?

Where do I get one?

I live in Chattanooga area and the CBS station (WDEF) contract goes out on DEC 31st. WDEF is saying its at an impasse. What if anything can I do? My contract ends in February. I love D* but not gonna tolerate this nonsense when I can go to uverse, cable or Dish. Advice is appreciated as I would...

I guess I should have said,...will they let you trade. If someone has a hd dvr and wants to trade me for my sd dvr.

hey I have an SD DVR and want to upgrade it to an HD DVR ( I already have one). Will D* let you switch?

Yes Yes, I have an HD DVR in my living room. I would like to switch out my DVR in my bedroom for another HD DVR. Not sure the advantage other than HD (which to me is a huge advantage) BUT......... now it's FREE!

Worked for me too!!! Thanks for the suggestion! I called tonight and was very honest. I told the person that I was cancelling me ST and SF if they did not give the $24 deal for 6 months with free SF. They forwarded me to programming dept and gave me the deal.....with no problems at all. Now...

I live near Chattanooga, TN. I see where Direct is adding locals in HD this month. My question is,.... what day of the month do they normally add stuff like this. Just wondering.

Anyone know? I see where Directv will begin providing more local markets in HD beginning Aug 14th. They listed alot of cities, but I am curious as to the order in which they will work. Does anyone know which markets the will begin with? Thanks for the response.

Then let me refraze that question, when the installer comes what HD DVR should I want????

What HD DVR will I get if I just ordered DirecTV? Also, does it have an RF remote?

And who pays for the programming and equipment? The customer! Both cable and DirectTV allow for occasional upgrades. Dish should do the same. As for holes in my roof,..not going to happen. I have a pole they post on. As for cutting Dish off, ....not upgrading me is what broke the camels back...

Thanks Rich! Legend I am certainly not. I am however, a man of principal. Regardless, it seems you have some anger built up over the matter. The truth is it is the principal of the matter. I could have went to the retention dept. , but chose not too. I simply refuse to have to beg and plead for...

You act as though this is my first rodeo dealing with businesses. It is certainly not. Trust me, if DirectTV mistreats me then I will deal with it when it comes. As for the education part of it,.....experience is always the best educator. Through my experiences with Dish, they do not value you...

You basically backed up what I said,...even though you did not realize it. You can have all the supply in the world ( DISH, CABLE, DIRECT ) but it the demand must be there by the "customer" . So, as I said, the customer or consumer drives the price. Take gas prices for instance. Why do they...

Exactly, I WONT pay! If they want to continue making $97 a month on me they will upgrade me. I am in the driver seat on this one. They need me way more than I need them. Heck, I can switch to Cable or DirectTV. At least Direct will allow you to upgrade your equipment every 6months. Cable...

Yes, I do. To keep my business they should allow me to upgrade my equipment. I am willing to sign contract. Heck, DTV allows upgrades every 6 months with good standing, which is why I am probably moving to DTV.

I am willing to pay the HD access fee and programing fee. I feel they should allow me to upgrade my receivers for free though (since I have been a customer for 3 years with no upgrades).

Dish is now offering locals in HD for my area (chattanooga). When calling Dish they are not offering any upgrades for existing customers (or so I was told) without charge. I have been a customer for 3 years with no upgrades. I think it is the least they can do to offer me a free upgrade so I can...

I am currently looking into switching to DirectTV. While on the phone the CSM told me that they do not offer locals in HD yet (even though Dish does). My question is that the CSM told me that while they do not offer locals in HD I will get all local programing that is broadcast in HD (like NFL...
