    Ugh, I quite honestly chose Sling TV specifically because they did not offer Fox News. I can't in good conscience pay even pennies in subscription costs to a network that preys on fear and intolerance. Poison for the mind. Time to move on. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Yeah, I probably wouldn't be as annoyed if I liked any of those teams, but I remember not too long ago when all those team plus the dodgers, USC, and ucla were on 2 channels with no extra fee. Those were the salad days. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Uggh, poor bastard. R u in NY? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I haven't heard of "Preferred" Xtra, just the regular extra. Is it an off the menu offering like Family? Anyone have a complete list of packages and their costs? I usually just switch between Entertainment and Select to avoid the RSN altogether, but I got such a huge savings to move to Choice...

    And that doesn't even include the dumb Dodgers channel, or the PAC-12 nets (which is the only one I'd actually watch). If I wasn't getting a huge discount on the Choice package right now, I would be downgrading to Select asap. Is LA an outlier at this price? What's NYC at these days...

    Best packages that don't have the RSN fee are Select and Entertainment. They're almost the same, except Entertainment includes several national sport nets like ESPN and FS1 for like $11/mo more. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I was, but i'm not entirely sure it would matter. You can always set up a cancellation date in the future (even under the guise you pay the early termination fee) and see if you get the offer to stay. I'd be surprised if they didn't try to keep you. Worst case scenario is you call back before...

    Yeah, for some reason this year they won't give out Red Zone separately. I've received it every year for free until this year and have never paid for ST. One CSR told me the NFL forbade them from offering it this year, which seems odd, but looking accurate at this point. They are giving out...

    So I had I had my cancellation set up for Friday, and got the email to call the 855 number to try and keep me. Called the number and they offered free ST Max if I upgraded to the Choice package (I've been happy with Select), and committed for twelve months. They also offered $35/mo off the...

    Still no offer for me. All I want is Red Zone, which it sounds like they aren't giving to anyone as a standalone this year, and no offers on Sunday Ticket. Went ahead and scheduled a cancellation for next week. Will see if I get the email and maybe call the 855 number people are talking about...
  11. Cable TV Discussion
    I get those all the time as an Internet subscriber who's never received TV from them. If u look into it, all you get for that is locals and the free shopping and religious channels. Also doesn't include the required equipment and stuff. So yeah, it's pretty much worthless (to me anyway). Sent...

    That's messed up then! I don't blame u for being ticked. Sent from my iPhone using DBSTalk mobile app

    Pretty sure if you are considered in-market for Root Pittsburgh, the channel should work for you if you simply subscribe to the Sports Pack (not EI). Assuming, that is, DirecTv set up the authorization for your location correctly. Sent from my iPhone using DBSTalk mobile app

    You watching in 4K? How's it look? Didn't like that first pitch of the game. Sent from my iPhone using DBSTalk mobile app
  15. DIRECTV Programming
    Oh man, I'd love to check that game out as a Giants fan. Too bad I don't have an Hr54, or a 4K tv, or the ultimate package... And I live in LA which means all the dodgers games are blacked out thanks to greed. Wonder if there's anywhere I could go to see it? Sent from my iPhone using DBSTalk...
  16. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Sounds like an even bigger rip off! Sent from my iPhone using DBSTalk mobile app
  17. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Don't disagree that they would be useful for some people, but just shy of $19 for SD locals and the channels that cost DTV nothing (or sometimes pay to be on) is a rip off. Gotta be $12+ in profit on that one. Sent from my iPhone using DBSTalk mobile app
  18. DIRECTV General Discussion
    There are 2. One called Family that has only a few scattered base channels and locals, and there is one that's super basic for $18.99/mo where you only get locals, free/ad channels, and some music channels. That last one I was also told includes no HD feeds of anything, even the locals...

    I'm with you. Solid movies playing this weekend. Thanks for the heads up, I probably wouldn't have noticed. Sent from my iPhone using DBSTalk mobile app
  20. DIRECTV Programming
    Just got the following email about a pending class action suit involving MLB.TV and DirecTV. Looks like this might be the reason for the lowered price this year, and sounds like they may offer a number of other options including single-team subscriptions. UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR...
