I just called these bitches. It's only if you want to cancel. I said well I want to cancel. He says well you will have an early termination fee. My contract is up in February. frick DIRECTV

My contract is up next April, and I still go the $50/month credit for a year with no problem. If I were you, I'd call again because you will probably get a different person. Although I said "cancel" to the automated system in order to get to the loyalty department, I never one told them I was considering cancelling. I just asked if there were any discounts that could lower my bill.

I decided to give it another shot since I struck out last time. I got the $50.00 off for 12 months and the red zone channel for free

Persistence pays off! Quick question, your bio says you are a professor. I won't ask where, but are you really a professor and if so, what's your PhD in?

Thanks to the OP...called and got 50 off a month plus HBO and Redzone channel free.

Awesome thread.

I called tonight and got $20 off per month for 12 months bringing my monthly bill to $56/ month for the Xtra package with 4 boxes.

Should I try to call back and get more off or more channels?

Add another $840 for a year to that total!

Cut the cord... Frick DirecTV.

I? got my Parents and my in laws to do it yesterday and it worked for both of them...

TO THE OP!!!

DILLY DILLY

Worked for me, $50 off per month for 12 months. No contract renewal

So this only works if you aren't in a contract?

I'm still in my contract but would love to get a discount.
