As I mentioned, as a former DirectTV employee, they wont give 2 fukks and will gladly take the 15 years worth of $ they already got and not offer you any type of loyalty promotions or discounts. They treat your neighbor who just signed up amd hasnt even made a payment better than a 10+ year customer.

ultimate standard
said...i need football and you dont have cbs so im cancelling
I was at 50.99 for ULTIMATE standard (intro price is like 55 or 60)
they gave me 25 dollars off of 50.99 for 12 months and a free usb thing to get cbs
i was really just hoping for sunday ticket but oh well....id rather just take the cash
so im paying like 25.99 for ultimate standard
(added receivers/tax and bs like that makes it $63, but hell...thats lower than a new customer intro cost)
So which one of these guys is telling the truth?

Both. Daygles if you read i mentioned after that first year Rudy will come "out of promotion." Also if Rudy did cancel he would be charged a 20$ cancellation fee for each month remaining on the contract.

Wait, what's this? The channels are out depending on geography? CBS was the only one out for me for the past couple weeks. Is NBC and FOX new?

This is my biggest beef with them. I've been a 20-year subscriber, i shouldn't have to call and beg for discounts. I'm good with $15/month for Nitro and its 9000 channels.

i have like 62.99 off for 21 more months
25 off for the next 12....i actually thought it was only 6 but they gave me 12 i guess because they sent me an email on what we discussed
and sending a usb thing for cbs
i recommend going to directv chat instead of calling. then you have proof and they have to be extra nice
when i called 3 months ago and said i want to cancel, the bitch didnt offer anything and canceled, told me to pay for the current month
with online chat there is always a trail of what was said

just literally go on chat and say you want to cancel because you dont get cbs and want to watch football
the person will ask you questions about account info
then transfer you to a "specialist"
just stay connected and go there, say you need cbs for football

order this shit- you gotta check when the subscriptions open up- $7 a month and you get everything- and i mean everything- fuk cable!!!

The problem is I built my programming with my DVR's.. I'm currently using 2 genie Directv DVR's and one regular one in my house.. Paid for.. I switch I gotta buy all new DVR's for the new provider.
That SUCKS for me.. Those 5 channel DVR's aren't cheap either.. I know you can lease them but still with a new provider you pay out the nose or you are locked down to a long term lease..
I am thinking of looking into cable, I hate the black outs with weather and the dishes on the roofs.
6'5 and 235 today pal mostly muscle. Still looking good and getting looks and I can't complain. The old body is still holding up for now no aches and pains. Summertime in SO CAL now, taking full advantage of that, beaching it almost everyday.
After working out hard in the sun finding more energy to date at night is a bitch now though after 50. This is new to me. Not like in my 30's. ..
May have to start taking some testosterone shots soon from the old Doctor if I can convince him. Sex drive is fading a bit as well which is pissing me off. Not liking this JJ with aging.. I'm sure you're in the same boat..
This is the correct answer. Although most posters are half retarded and won't give it a look.
A digital antenna will cost about $25-$30 and it's a 1 time investment. It's an HD picture that is crystal clear and just as good as cable or dish. You will get all the major local networks with a great picture as long as you don't live in BFE. And for those that don't know what that means, CBS, ABC, NBC, and Fox.

That means free football.
All nice and dandy but how do you hook that up to a DVR that can record 5 channels at once with that? How can you program that DVR to record all your favorite shows when you are not at home and then watch later?
That's the power of a GENIE DIRECTV DVR that is worth the extra $75 a month.. Well that's my thinking anyways.. I record everything, watch later and fast forward through the commercials..
Directv offers all the League passes too.. Can split view and watch multiple games also.. Directv is still legit.. I've seen other streaming systems and providers and not many match up to Directv Genie DVR viewing combined with a smart TV..

You don't. It's a supplement to whatever you use for TV service. It completely takes care of the OP's issue. Worrying about CBS on DirecTv.

I use a digital antenna for local network channels and get the Blue and Orange package on Sling for $55 per month. And I have everything I need for under $60 per month. Sling has a DVR feature that we use often.

Are we really not going to get NFL, the big college games, or March Madness on CBS?
Been going on for a while now, and there doesn't seem to be any resolution in site that I can see.
Anyone have any more info on this?
It’s simple. Until the NFL yanks the ticket from directTV they have customers over a barrel. Federal government better step in. This is BS. And how are they going to handle the CBS games on the ticket? Assuming I’m not going to get any of them.

DVR capabilities are the shiits. If you aren't using a multi channel recording capable DVR you are missing out in life!!! I can swear by it - welcome to the best TV viewing technology below!!! Combine this with high speed internet hook up and it's rocket fuel..

It also didn't help that several customers across the USA are experiencing "pixelation" problems. (I was one of them.) But they raised the prices anyway to keep up with protocol. There's no way their "Entertainment" package should be priced at $100.00 monthly... but... they did it.
