AFAIK, all new customer promo pricing will last for one year, not two. But you will be committed to the full 2 years (subject to an early termination fee before then).

Top250 should net you $40/off the regular price for a year, and free premiums for 3 months. There is no charge for EHD activation on the Hopper. If you do get Protection Plan free as a promo item, it makes no sense to keep it past the free period. You'll have to ask about Multi-Sport and Movie Pack.

I thought new Customers got their price locked in for 2 Years?

Past the 3 Months of Free Premiums, is there any ability to lock in favorable Monthly Rates on the Premiums for up to the 2 Years?

Why not keep the Protection Plan in force throughout the 2 Year Term?

I was thinking of the promos before the price lock offers, my bad.

AT250 price lock is $80/mo for 2 years, a $15 savings over the regular AT250 price. In addition to the free premiums for 3 months, you also get free HBO for a full year. Everything else I said still holds.

Protection plan (once you are paying for it) isn't worth keeping. If you ever have a problem, you can always activate the PP the day you call in to use it.
