Yep. Called to cancel mine and they offered 29.99 payments instead of 49.99 with superfan built in.

I have a little trick with Directv to get a lot of programming for free. It has been working for 10 years. It's really the best option.

I use to have direct TV but realized you can only watch one game at a time and in the NFL there is no value because games once per week and all games in two time slots, if you have a favorite team maybe it is good to have out of your area but nowadays so much coverage of all sports there is no need. I never missed it . I just use cable now and buy NBA package because that is the best value out there.

All you do i act like your tired with them....they will give u like 400 in credits..when i moved into my new apartment my southern view was blocked by trees and i couldnt get the reception...they offered me 380 in credits to my account...i got the rest of nfl sunday ticket for free and just watched over the internet....already doing the samething for this season

Channel 701 you can watch 8 games at once.

Scorpion · 07-13-10, 06:40 PM

called directv today, let them know dish network offers free HD access and want to switch, offered me free HD access for 24 months, save $10/month= $240

told her to cancel the NFL SUNDAY TICKET, offered me $70 discount. $300 to $230, i should have told her no and just canceled, maybe before the season starts they would have offered a better discount, maybe $180, its ok, will do it next yr

cancelled NFL SUNDAY TICKET TO-GO, never asked me if I want this had charged me $60 for this shit
