Yeah I know all day all my sup calls I had were people mad that they had to have superfan for HD ... that htye were supposed to get it. with hd access. Just was not a good day to be on the phones.
And no we generally dont hand it out especially today unless we get so tired we dont want to put up a fight over it.
You can blame your marketing department for that one. Many of the Sunday Ticket commercials make it look like you get HD with just having ST. You have to read the small print on the commercial to see that you also have to have SF.
I know that the ads are misleading the fine print a $#$% but Everyone felt the need to yell and for tht they got 0 ... only 2 people say owe i did not know that and that kinda stinks the ad a little mis leadering with out yelling or screaming an those are the people i gave half off super fan too.
Hey, I've been a directv sub for 14 years and have had the sunday ticket almost every year since they came out with it. When I upgraded to HD 1 1/2 years ago, I had NO idea I wouldnt get the ST games in HD and needed superfan for that. Didnt figure it out until week 2 since week 1 had the SF freeview.
What really ticked me off was that they turn down the PQ on the SD feeds for ST to the extent that the picture is awful. So not only did I think it was stupid that someone with an HD receiver, HD service and ST didnt get the games in HD unless they spent another $100, I got crappy PQ for my $270.

I will have to say that nobody should ever yell and scream over it. I am not sure when people will figure out that you get better results with being nice. I do not envy you one bit in your position and I once did customer service through college and I said that I would never do it again (unless absolutely necessary).
Ok, I misunderstood.
I thought you were telling the OP that he did not have to have superfan for HD.
You are saying he more than likely wont get it.
I gotcha.
I still think he should call and ask. Nicely of course. I did, and it worked. Many others did as well, there is a thread here on the deals.
Hey, if yall say no, you are back where you started. Right?
Right I just do it tommarow or the day after as today most agents nerves are most likely frazzled.
I'm a new subscriber (joined about a month ago) and I wanted Superfan. I tried asking the CSR's a couple of times, but didn't get much headway with them on getting in thrown in for free. Since I'm new I figured I'd pay for Superfan this year and then next year I'll probably either have them throw it in free or I'll cancel the ticket all together. My favorite team is local, but being able to watch the other games is fun too. However full price for the ticket and Superfan won't be happening for me next year. I'll see what happens when that time comes.
I tend to be one of the nicer go out of your way sups and I was frazzled at the end of my shift. So most others will be to. It all about timing.
Cool. Yeah I pay my bill on time and hopefully will have enough of a track record with them to have them give me the deal that a lot of the other existing subs received here this season. :up
They really need to make it part of the ST package as I've mentioned for many years now.
Just have two separate price points if they have SD subs still.
HD has become the norm for a good % of peopel at this point.
Out of all the viewing I do on D* there is only like 1 channel that I still watch that is not in HD.
That said, many of the HD channels still show SD content as well.
