Sunday Ticket discounts

[Jimbo]

Stone, what about my case where I canceled and wasnt given any offers to keep it, then called in and was told there arent any such discounts? Do I need to turn it back on via the web site and then call, or should I be able to do all of it on one call?

Last year I went through the same rigmarole. Called and canceled and the guy just said "ok". When I called back the guy put it back on, then gave me an early cancel discount.

Maybe the guy I talked to just wasnt very creative?

Early CANCEL Discount ?

Thats a new one on me

Online and iphone access is 49.99 4 payments of 9.99

4 payments of 9.99 for a total of 49.99.

Stone really must work for directv.

I got MLB EI at a discount, so I will more than likely wait until that promo is up before I ask for ST or anything else........don't want to push my luck too much.

Also, I agree with you Jimbo, I wouldn't say "cancel" either unless I was really willing to do so.....which I'm not.

Davedirectv, thanks for the easy to follow chart..........:up

The HD and SF is not free. When you compare how much you paid for it before without SF/HD, it was $99 cheaper with ST running around 200-250 depending on when you got it. Now, they're including the SF with ST and running the price around 300-330 depending on the pack you choose.

It is very odd he could get fired for that. No canceling premiums with out some type of save attempt.

Sooo...am I better off trying the CSR roulette with my canceled NFLST or just re-enabling the ST and then try canceling again but put on more of a dance this time?

OK Slick .....
If you want to look at it that way ...

I originally paid $ 79 for Sunday Ticket , I guess they should give it to us for $ 79 forever.

if you dont get a call from us in about a week to get you pick up nfl st again, I would try to add it again and try canceling again.

But I hear were are going to be tighter on nflst promos this year do to what going on next year.

I would hate to say Cancel my ST (if I wasn't ready too) and have it shut off right then and there.
I bet you'd get a great rate calling back in to turn it back on

actually, i cancelled sunday ticket last year because thge price was getting high. but a few weeks later, i changed my mind. they added it back and gave me free super fan but no offers of any discount on sunday ticket, itself.

that's for dtv sunday ticket to go.

You must work for directv too.

How does 4 x 9.99 = 49.99 ?

He already corrected that he meant to say 5 x 9.99 = 49.95.

Thats that Fuzzy math he's always talking about.

I usually wait nearer the start of the season & always get something. Premiere, 15+ years & no late payments gets me something; one time even an NFL remote.

Fuzzy

Heh. Thats what the 'f' stands for!

I'm guessing this is how they will combat Dish's Free HD campaign.

Just take the NFL/Premier campaign, which is their most successful campaign every year, add Free HD for life, and start it early. Fathers day is a good kickoff reason, but I think we'll see the NFL promo run for a long time this year.

Right around $70/mo gets you NFL Ticket, Premier package, HD, and DVR for the first 5 months. Of course they will still offer their $35 Choice Xtra promo for the first year I would imagine too.
