Wht the hell do you pay for it? If you have been with direct tv for years that means you don't have a contract with them. You call and ask for the retention center and tell them you want to terminate your service unless they can give you a good deal. I do this every year and I have gotten the my bill to stay the same for the past 4 years and have gotten Sunday Ticket for free and they also thru in the extra innings package for free this year :)


Damn some people need to learn to play the game then again I do purchasing for my living so I am pretty good at making people compete against each other. Side note I have comcast for my phone and internet and I haven't had a price change on that in 4 years also. As soon as i see the bill raised I call and threaten to goto direct tvs triple play.


I had 3 friends call and threaten to leave and they all got Sunday ticket for free this year :)

I already stated in my previous post that as the promotions expire I call them and threaten to leave and they usually always give me other promotions. Do you read? lol. You are definitely not the only person that does this. I think it's a common practice and is the reason all of these companies have customer retention departments.

I've paid for Sunday Ticket but gotten huge promotions otherwise. I only care about my net payment, not what specific items I'm paying for.

In 5 years these cable tv companies and packages and that bs won't exist anyways. We'll be able to stream everything and pay for each channel individually. Get any game from anywhere wherever we want for. Free or small fee.

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Nice job, man. I'm right at the tail end of a three year promotion, so my bill is starting to climb. It's just about time to start calling them back up, for sure.
