    I tried calling in to see if I could get a deal, was told the best I could do was to have Sunday Ticket for 6 payments of $32 (which did not include Max). I have been with Directv since 1997 and found this offer disappointing. She said there was nothing else they could offer me.

    If they do this, they would need to group all the channels into categories. My cable company tried this done years ago and it was expensive to order the channels you wanted.

    Did they learn from when they tried this in 1997 and failed. Guess Fox will keep trying until they get it right.

    I was sitting in Greenboro, North Carolina back around 1997 and read the same quote in a news paper about Robert Murdoch starting a sports network to take on ESPN. It was Fox Sports net and he was attacking by taking top talent like Chris Myers, Keith Obermann from ESPN and Van Earl Right...

    I understand Directv's obligation to blackout certain sporting events. I also understand that they are required to blackout old rebroadcasts of classic sporting events. This is not a question on that. Why are they blacking out non sporting events. Two examples Cardinals winter warm up...
  6. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Hello, I see posts all of the time about people calling in and cancelling Sunday ticket and getting deals to get them to keep it. I was wondering if anyone has been offered a deal if they call and try to cancel MLB or NHL?

    Thank you for the feedback

    I decided to try again to see what they would offer me today. I read where some were calling in and saying they saw where others were getting x or y credits. I brought this up on the phone. They upped my offer from $180 to $240 in credits. As much as I was hoping for more I decided this was...

    But they do offer me free game lounge for my anniversary gift each year.

    Hello, I have a family member who is about to start dialysis. The place she has to go does not have a TV in the room. I was thinking this maybe an option (if the facility allows it) but had a few questions. 1. Is there an additional monthly charge for it (I saw the equipment charge)? 2...

    I have been reading what people have been offered for deals. Decided to try myself today. Best I was offered was $15 a month off my bill. Guess they figure I have been with them for 14 years, so why bother giving me a great discount.

    I have been paying for my locals and DNS's for years now even though I am not receiving my locals. I called in about this and was told I had to decide to either keep my DNS's or get locals, but they could not reduce the cost of my package if I cancelled locals. I decided to keep my DNS's...

    I banged my head against a wall last year when they blacked out the Cardinals winter warmup (which has not game action, but instead just interview with players who are not even in uniform). Phone call after phone call and wasting hours trying to get the ability to see it. I decided this year I...

    I don't know what was worse-That my machine was not working when I got up, or it was stuck on an infomercial. Both were torture.

    I had to reset one box three times and another twice before I could get them to work. Anyone else who got theirs backup finding the channel changes to be slow.

    Not all of the East coasters. I would love to see it overhauled.
  17. DIRECTV Programming
    Last year game two of the Blues-Canucks series was the second game on versus that night. They did not switch until the first game was over (which I believe was a pitt overtime game). They also did not make the first period available on an alternate feed or on Center Ice (even with Fox...

    f fans live out of our broadcast territory but have Center Ice - like in your case - they can still get Predators games in their entirety, but this is only with the Center Ice package. If they are relying on VERSUS, it is kind of like March Madness on CBS. The network will be cutting in and out...

    No. This was an issue with the Blues Playoff series last year. They were opening up in Vancouver and the second game on Versus. We had to wait for the first game to end before they switched over to the Blues game. You will only get it on an RSN if Versus is not carrying it at all.
