If anyone bargains down this years package, let us know how you made out so the rest of us can know what to shoot for.

Full price is $353.94 for the Max and $251.94 for the regular package...

Yeah the max package is the only way to fly.
I believe it auto bills and I think 1st payment hits this month

I gave it a shot, and they offered no discount. Got some $5 credit per month for ppv but thats it.
Said I was going to cancel and they sent me over to the cancellation dept

They offered me $9 off per month but I said no thanks. Not sure if I'm going to keep it this year. I think a big part of what's (not) going on with discounts this year is that they are a part of AT & T now.

I was hoping that with AT&T being involved, they might be more willing to negotiate.
I guess not. Glad to see I'm not alone, every year I see many people post, "I get the ticket free every year! I just tell them I cant afford it" and every year I try it, all I get is "Sorry to hear that, I'll send you to the cancellation dept"

My contract is up next week and I just got new boxes a few months ago so I will see what happens.

Thanks for going first dieter, you took one for the team.

So did you cancel?

For those who don't want to keep DTV, GamePass might be an option. It's $100 and you get every game, but not live. Still they're available as soon as the Sunday afternoon games are final which isn't great, but might work for some...

ya i got gamepass already and unlike previous years you don't have to wait until the sunday night game is over plus you get preseason live which was combined with it and is no longer available by itself. it looks like from the replies dtv is cracking down on those trying to get sunday ticket for next to nothing like you use to.

The first thing you want to do is when you call, and the computer asks you how it can help direct you to the correct department, just say: "retention". That will get you to customer retention and they are generally more willing(and capable) of negotiating.

It took me four tries this year but my details are a bit unique and I don't want to get into the long story. However, it is my impression that if you tell them the only reason you signed up for DirecTV in the first place and the only reason you continue to keep it is because of the NFL package, that they become more responsive.

Also, just keep trying different operators. Tell them you don't understand why, as a long time customer, you've never received the NFL package for free but new timers are given it for free. Stuff like that. Good luck.

EDIT: Also, the discounts they offer people, I'm pretty sure, are based on what your normal monthly package is. If you order the super deluxe package with all the movie channels, pay per view and adult channels and spend $250/month then they give you a better selection of discount options.

Just heard from my brother:

He got $9 off of Sunday Ticket for 6 months (basic package), half off of HBO for 6 Months ($9 a month) and then another $5 a month off of bill for 6 months, so about $125 in discounts.

I guess i'm up...
