( I stole this from a respected poster on another board.)




Thought I'd pass this along in case any of you want to do something similar.

DirecTV is charging freaking $280 for their NFL Sunday Ticket, plus another $100 for the SuperFan package (HD games).

I called, told them I was canceling, going with Time Warner. Told them I can go to my neighbor's to watch the games, save a lot of $. They offered minimal discounts, but I was able to finally get the following.

$10 off my overall bill for 12 months = $120.
$20 off for 6 months on Sunday ticket = $120
Free super fan package = $100

If you're like me and you can't live without Sunday ticket, it's worth calling and dealing with them. They'll bend over backward to keep your business.

Another post from the thread


They will transfer you to another person to finish the cancellation with directtv. That is the person to negoiate with. Don't try to negoiate with the the first person who anwers ask to be transferred to the cancelation department

I saved a ton of money with DirecTV as well by canceling and going to AT&T Uverse. :D
