I thought thats what I read on that messages screen last weekend?....I just delete them and never read close.
Try to get a hold of retention. If you get a regular rep ask them for your disconnection cost and they would have to transfer you since regular reps do not handle that.
For the past 3 years, I have been getting the RedZone channel on its own for free. I just wait until we're close to the season, and theyve added it without any problem. I called on September 1st, and at that time the guy I spoke with told me that he had not seen it offered this year by itself. But he told me to try calling back when the season began and see if it comes up.
So, today, I called back and got a lot more than I expected. The guy I spoke to this time was extremely friendly, and I could tell he was looking through multiple things to try and find it for me. After about a minute, he told me he couldnt find the RedZone on its' own. BUT, he could give me the following:
ST MAX---$59.99 for 6 months (normal price)
$50 a month in bill credits for one year on my normal package (I carry the Premier)
$10 a month in bill credits for 6 months on my sports channels package
So, basically, Im getting ST MAX for free. The only caveat was that I had to agree to a 1 year contract, which Im happy to do since Ive been with Direct for 5 years already and have no intention of going anywhere.
It has been harder to find deals this year, but I dont know that its necessarily because of AT&T. I think its just a matter of timing, the rep you get, and what kind of programming youre carrying (and how long youve been a customer). It took me until 2 days before the first Sunday, but Im happy. To anyone who's been frustrated, keep on trying...there are deals to be had if youre persistent.

I have called in twice and the first time I was told 35.00 a month for ST. I called in the next day and was told 9.00 off a month for ST. I told them to cancel the ST very rude people they just don't care if someone has been with DTV over 18 years...... I am very disappointed with AT&T.......
I received MAX free this morning. I was set to pay the $44.99 for 6 for Max but noticed yesterday when check my ATT account it was standard ST. I like that I can stream games and also D* app for data free.
Jimbo thanks for responding to my post I am almost at the point of canceling my service entirely. I am tried of AT&T being in control of all this and most likely jusy move on.....
Well, if att running things is a real issue with you, then, do what you want and move on, sound like thats what your wanting to do at this point anyways.
I really don't see any difference between when D* had it and att having it.
Remember, D* and att are in this to MAKE MONEY, not give the ship away.
Weather you been there for 2 years or 20 years, i wouldn't expect them to give me the boat for free.
My contract isn't up ( I actually called last month and got it lowered by $50 a month) and today I received this :

Did they just give me Sunday ticket for free? I'm not an NFL fan.

Got the same e-mail, watched some games today with no problem so I'm a happy camper.
called today got $25 off per month for 24 months free upgrade to ST Max and $5 off HBO for 3 months
It appears that they changed the way that the 'Short Cuts' are being shown this year. In years past they were shown on channels 705 and 706. The DirecTV website still has these directions on their website. But it now appears that you must watch these via a connected device (and not via the on demand feature of the DirecTV DVRs). I'm VERY frustrated to say the least.
I called today to inquire about ST Max.. around 415pm. They wanted $179, which is $10 more than last years offer.. Didn't like the tone of the rep. so said no..I called back at 1115pm asked by the automation what was I calling about, said account info. I got sent to India or somewhere, could hardly understand them. "I hate that"...they wanted full price for Max...Goodbye. Called right back and said "contract". It went to an american, speaking
english...Asked about deals on ST Max, said I got it for half price last year. He said, should be no problem, "I can do things others can't". Real friendly guy asked if I had a favorite team etc and went on to talk NFL football for a while. Offered ST Max at half price, for 4 monthly payments and an extra $10 off for 4 months, which makes it work out to what I payed last year! It works for me. I think when I said "contract" it went to retentions....Just keep trying until you get what you want.!
