2011 NFL Sunday Ticket Current DTV Customers Best Deal?

After subscribing to NFL Sunday Ticket since the beginning...I made the call on the "best deal"...and determined the time had arrived to cancel it.

Since my team is already going to be on national TV for at least 7 of the 18 games this year (none blacked out), and perhaps as many as 9...it simply was not financially a good return at this time to pay for 1/2 season, even with the discounts.

 

18 games ?

 

Just called...wow. Simply mentioned the commercial and here's what he did for me:

Gen Reten CR ($50.00)
Savefor6MosMA ($5.00)
$20/6mosBasePkg ($20.00)
Save$5/6moSPORT ($5.00)
1/2 offSTZfor6Mos ($6.50)
HBOfor6MosSave ($5.00)
Save$5/6moSHOW ($5.00)
$5/6mValueDisc ($5.00)
NFL SUNDAY TICKET 2011 $53.99
NFL SUNDAY TICKET To-Go 2011 $0.00

$53.99/month for 6 months
($51.50)/month for 6 months

So it's NFL Sunday Ticket costs me $2.49/month

And he threw in a $50 credit to cover that.

Plus To-Go on top

:eek2:

 

Just called and basically was offered nothing.....only $10 off my Sunday Ticket. Then I mentioned about others getting $250 off, got nowhere. So then she came back with $18 off and I said no way....so I cancelled the service. Not even close to what I paid last year. Didnt even try to pursuade me to keep it.....and I have been with them over 13yrs.

 

Just called...retention (promo's) told me there were no specials for Sunday Ticket. He said he could give me the early renewal price. I tolfd him I already had that. I told him I know of others that got a one time credit of $200. He said he couldn't see that on the screen. The only thing I could get was $20 off for 6 months on my regular programming. Better than nothing but not great

 

when there is only one or two games on, yes they do..and a lot of times there are only 2 games on 4-7..especially near the end of the season when so many games are on saturday, thursday etc

 

Just got it Free!!!! Just renewed with a new free dvr and retention gave it to me. Is it opening weekend yet? Go Ravens

 

No they dont.

There are never only 2 games in the 4:00 window.

Tell me what week last season had only 2 games @ 4:00 ?

Also last year the last 3 weeks of the season had a combined total of only 3 thursday/saturday games.

 

Remember, the free DVR isn't really free, it has a two year contract. Of course that not not be an issue, but is worth noting.

 

I was offered $10 off for 6 months I was offered. I declined. I'll keep calling until I get a better deal.

 

I called and asked for the new customer offer and got it for free. I'm in my 12th year with DirecTv.

 

Some think NFLST is too cheap.
Incredible.

And I think CNBC.com needs better reporters and copy editors.

 

And

 

did you have the top package to begin with?

 

Just called and got $150 off ST plus free To-Go (another $50 credit). Total ST+ToGo price $175. I received a $120 credit last year, so an additional $80 in credits this year makes me a happy sub. Also got a general $5 credit for 6 months just for inquiring last week. Nice guys, those D* folks!

As an added bonus, I only get To-Go so my brother can watch his Jets games online and he reimburses me the entire $50 cost. I won't be telling him that I got it free this year

 

Yeah, so there were a lot of discounts to be had.

Though the CSR did mention that some people don't have as many discounts available so he's had to give them larger one time credits.

 

I called back today and went directly to retention. I got the ST for $160 (four payments of $39.99) plus two $10 monthly credits for six months ($120 total).

 

I called in last night and at first got a tough **** from a regular csr.
I called back and asked for retention and recived the HBO less $5 for 6 mos
Showtime less $5 for 6 mos,Cinemax less $5 for 6 mos,Starz less $6.50 for 6 mos,4 ST payments at $24,2 payments at $34.00,$10 less for 6 months for Sportspak,and I finally got tired of trying to understand what the hell she was talking about so I said great,thanks and goodbye.
I signed on to my acct this morning and saw a charge of $39.95 plus tax for Sunday Ticket.
I'm a 16 year customer and have Premiere and I can't figure this one out.
Who knows what I'm paying this year??
Oh and no On the Go acess to Sunday Ticket unless I wanted to pay for it.
R you kidding!!!!!!!

 

I just got off of the phone with a Directv Customer Retention CSR who looked at my Account and Profile Info and gave me the following after some Haggeling and Smoozzing!!!

(1) NFL Sunday Ticket - $160 (4 Payments of $39.99)
(2) NFL Sunday Ticket To Go - FREE ($50 Value)
(3) $10 Credit For 12 Months - $120 Value
(4) STARZ for 6 months - $40 Value

For a Savings of $230, Not Bad!!!

So basically I am getting The NFL SUNDAY TICKET for $40 plus $40 of STARZ plus NFL SUNDAY TICKET TO GO FOR FREE!!!

Way To Go DIRECTV!!!
