    Getting the deal before it expires

    Huh, no.:confused: Last year you paid 4 installments of $70 for the NFLST and got the Premier package and DVR service for $0 for 4 months. I don't know what the offer will be this year. So even if the offer is for $75 for the NFLST this year, and you don't care a lick about football, you...

    Sports Pack Question

    They won't switch your "base" RSN, but for $12 bucks for the sports pack you will get the Tigers and Reds. Kind of like a mini MLBEI package.:) Local Regional Sports Network Information

    Upgrade without Committment?

    Not necessarily - Do you have any sports subs like NFLST or NBALP? This upcoming season you will need an mpeg 4 receiver to get that programming in HD. They might be getting proactive about this switch.:)

    I'm livid! Service turned off...

    Aha, I think we all assumed that you started as a new customer with Directv. Having had an account before, was that account paid in full? Could Directv have possibly linked an unpaid balance from your old account to your new account? Did you dispute any charges on the old account that were...

    Just Switched to D* from E*

    The conversation should go something like this: "Honey, I just found out how I can save us over $120 a year on our Directv bill and still get those Yankee games...":)

    missing HD channels (Local, MLB, etc)

    How can this be? The H(R)21 doesn't get ota stations w/o the AM21. Do you have an H(R)20?:)

    Just Switched to D* from E*

    Is it even necessary to have the Sports Pack? You may get YES as your RSN. What is your zip code? Check out this page: Local Regional Sports Network Information It seems very unlikely, or improbable (but still possible) that you would need to sub to the Sports Pack to view games on YES.:)...

    D*RM is here for all to feast on

    I guess that's why it's called Pay Per View and not Pay Per Unlimited Views:)

    EI on D*

    What would you call 62? Checking the Directv schedule there are 62 HD games scheduled from 04/06-04/12/08 (not counting the duplicate feeds). DIRECTV - MLB EXTRA INNINGS Schedule :):):) Loving my MLBEI in HD

    MLB EI dual feeds

    The problem is that CSN Philly and 4SD are not available on Directv in those local markets. Ask any baseball fan in Philly or San Diego. They do not get to see their local team with EI at any time, on any EI channel or any RSN.:)

    MLBEI schedule question

    It might be a mistake, but because of dual feeds some of these channels should be available. The constant thing with all these games is that the home team feed is on a local channel only: Astros my20 vs. Cubs wgn (should be available on wgn, not a mlbei channel) Nats masn 2 vs. Cards ksdk5...

    Mariners (or other MLB teams) HD?

    You may want to check again. 651-1 working just fine. Mariners in HD. Do you have a favorites list or is this channel not selected in your setup?:)

    Confused

    FWIW, very few Braves games will be on TBS this year. They will be carried on predominantly on Peachtree TV and SportsSouth.:) The Official Site of The Atlanta Braves: Schedule: 2008 Braves Schedule

    can i get them to lower my deposit?

    Directv does not require a deposit or activation fee for returning customers. They may require a credit card be placed on file. Also a HDDVR would at the most cost you $199. The only way I could see you getting charged $400 to return is if you want additional equipment or your account wasn't...

    NBA TV in HD

    NBA TV is part of the sports pack: DIRECTV - Sports NBA TV-HD is available in a free preview this year with HD Access and Choice or above package (I believe).:)

    late paying bill, sent back receiver, what next?

    Late paying the bill, probably late returning the R15. He probably already was charged for it.:)

    Questions about switching to HD

    The most cost effective way would be to call Direct. BB or CC could sell you the HDDVR, but that price is going to be $299. You would have to call Direct anyway to have the dish and multiswitch installed. There might be a cost to run a second line for the DVR in the bedroom.:)

    Do I REALLY need to lease the receivers???

    Make sure that when you walk out of CC or BB with those receivers, you have a 5LNB dish waiting at home for you. The new HD is hard to view without it.:)

    D* is not doing away with OTA

    Actually having no OTA tuners is useless for many people without HD LIL. A single tuner would have some use.:)
