$300 to Switch from Cablevision to Directv

[DVRaholic]

Directv is offering a special deal of $300 ($30 off for 10 months) for anyone who leaves Cablevision and signs up to Directv. My friend just got this offer, it only started last week, and is Only for New Directv subscribers, proof of Cablevision service is needed.

I heard they killed this deal since Cablevision recently signed a deal with Fox to continue carrying Fox News at a higher rate.

Dont think so scott, my friend called to sign up yesterday and the CSR told him this on the phone. Thats how we got the link to the PDF form. So I think its still a good deal. The link is still good. Maybe they are not going to promote it too much, but they will still offer it.

Here another link for $150 off, but it ends 10/31/06

That is funny.... Why would anyone sign up with the HD Lite factory?

Trust me, if we switch to directv, we will have $30-$35 in our pocket that we can use for something other than paying for cable.

Trust me, I had D* for almost 10 years and now have Cablevision. Even after my promo is up the cost is about the same for me. D* is only good for one thing IMHO and that is the NFLST.

Local Adelphia (aka Comcast) is offering a "Ditch the Dish" promotion with all the digital cable channels, plus HBO, Showtime & Starz for $29.95 per month for 12 months; two HD DVRs, and two HD cable cards for $61 per month, which is half of DishHD Platinum. It's even $24 less per month than DishHD Bronze after adding up all the extra receiver, DVR fees, etc.
