IDBillzFan Posted September 4, 2020 Posted September 4, 2020 Tried the Twitter avenue this year, and it was a bit wonky in that it took a while for responses, and each response came from a different person, but ultimately the dude gave me a number and his extension, got right through. Told him was trying to understand why there was a 0 dollar line item on my last bill for Sunday Ticket Max. He said they'll start charging for it with the next bill, but hey, you've been with us since '96, let me see what I can do. Free Sunday Ticket Max, $70 off a month for 12 months. I asked him if he had anything he could do for HBO, and gave us three free months. Fastest, easiest call I've made in years. 1

You do not need MAX for the app. Max gives ya red zone and fantasy stuff not worth the extra charges from my view On 9/2/2020 at 7:13 PM, Nervous Guy said: Got ST Max free after telling them "This is my annual call, sometimes I get it free, sometimes I get a discount. What can you do for me this year?" Her reply was "I hope you get it free." After about 10 mins or less, she gave it to me free! She also added that "they should always give loyal customers like you ST for free"...I didn't even want Max, I'm just satisfied with regular old ST. My other discounts roll off in October, she told me to call back the day they roll off and "we'll see what we can do". I've got to say, I've always, always been treated well by DTV. Sounds like my call as well. I tried also for the equipment discount t but guy claims that’s only for folks with SD receivers. 1

Max allows you to stream from mobile devices, which is huge. You also get the “short cuts” which is a great way to re-watch a game in less than 30 min (although Game Pass has the condensed version of games too). I admit that the fantasy channel and “player tracker” features are pretty useless.

If the Bills are on, Im watching that and not anything else. Redzone is great if you have another 3 hours to watch the other time slot and get lots of action in those 3 hours. But you dont get all the nuances of any one game. The best part about redzone is lack of commercials. Sometimes I prefer to just pick a game and watch it.

sfbillsfan Posted September 4, 2020 Posted September 4, 2020 Made my call yesterday & got nothing from customer service. Called customer loyalty today & had a very nice 10 minute call & will be getting a $70 monthly credit for the next year. 1
RobbRiddicksTDLeap Posted September 5, 2020 Posted September 5, 2020 Is Gamepass worth it? My friend who I split the ticket with, got rid of DTV. So now I’m left with no way to watch live games. My son is panicking, and I don’t want to go the reddit route. Any suggestions?

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted September 6, 2020 Posted September 6, 2020 Check your bill. I was told twice it was FREE and then they billed me. 1
Nineforty Posted September 6, 2020 Posted September 6, 2020 Just wanted to thank those who paved the way and provided helpful info. Quick, pleasant call. ST Max free for season. A first in maybe 5 attempts over the years I believe.

NFL Gamepass is not live normally you can rewatch same day after game has ended. The only way I believe you can watch live in NFL gamepass is if you buy the international version and use a VPN to stream. To watch live you will need NFL Sunday ticket streaming package. If you have a college student in the family can get discounted package otherwise can go Ebay route to buy a subscription

I was under the impression that you couldn’t watch until the next day 🤔
