Save $10 on your DirecTV bill

I know it's not much, but $10 is $10. If you call to complain about not getting Nickelodeon, MTV, and Comedy Central then they will credit your account $5 for each of the next 2 billing cycles.

And wait on hold for an hour? That's like 10 dollars an hour.

Yeah, it really ain't worth the time to call and be put on hold. No...thanks.

This is exactly why I don't have Cable or Satellite.

I called today and was not put on hold. When the voice prompts start, just say, "I want to talk to a real person" and you get connected immediately. Seriously, some of you are just too dang jaded to take a gift.

Really? You didn't get satellite just so you could avoid getting $10 back when there was a programming change? That's thinking ahead!
