Jukester Posted April 30, 2022 Posted April 30, 2022 Last year for DirecTV and it looks like they may be going out with some generosity. Got an email last night that I'm getting Max for free. I know some of you have gotten this in the past but it's a first for me. I usually have to do the song and dance and eventually get it at a deep discount or for free anyway, but this is nice! Hopefully some of you have gotten this already or will be getting it soon. 1 1 Quote
ALLEN1QB Posted April 30, 2022 Posted April 30, 2022 Awesome hope I get the same DirecTV you are going to be missed Quote
Jukester Posted April 30, 2022 Author Posted April 30, 2022 Only reason I had DirecTV was for ST. There will be a mass exodus to other services after this year (me included). I’m sure ATT/DTV is going to be very flexible with loyalty offers as they try to hold on to subscribers. 2 Quote
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted April 30, 2022 Posted April 30, 2022 (edited) It seems a wee bit early for that Be careful that it isn’t spam.

newcam2012 Posted April 30, 2022 Posted April 30, 2022 I called them up because Dish was giving me a very good offer. They came close enough for me to stay with DTV for at least one more year. I still pay too much but I hate the haggle of changing. I pay about $159 a month for tv and internet. 1 Quote

Yeah I also thought it was very early for this but the email is legit. Sender is DIRECTV@message.att-mail.com and link took me directly to my DTV account. Will post update if this doesn't end up going through. Edited April 30, 2022 by Jukester Quote

Can you forward to others so we can claim we received it in case they don’t send it to us 1 Quote
muppy Posted May 1, 2022 Posted May 1, 2022 If Direc-TV is retaining the NFL Sunday ticket I will stay a subscriber to direc-Tv. . But I also indeed will negotiate / Milk them for any loyalty discounts I can. Knowing the competition and their pricing will hopefully work to my advantage. I also would rather keep what works in my home and has for years rather than switch to a different provider unless the competitor offer is just That Much Better. Quote

ATT formed a Joint Venture with another media company and they both put certain assets in the JV. Directv has been a looser for a number of years as the NFL payments have been heavy lifting for them. ATT got them off their books, or , will with a further divesture of more ownership. I think ATT still owns 70% about. 1 Quote
Mike in Horseheads Posted May 2, 2022 Posted May 2, 2022 I will pry keep DTV anyway since ST only gets me one or two Bills games a year when they are on FOX. I like it for the other games too especially when Bills don't play or are a national game Quote
Greg S Posted May 2, 2022 Posted May 2, 2022 I have had DTV since 2002. Only reason is because of the Sunday ticket. They lose that and I would drop them. Ever since AT&T partnered with them they have gotten worse. 1 Quote

Ever since AT&T partnered with them they have gotten worse. Had them for since early 2000’s. Recently got a $50/month credit, still too much compared to cord-cutting options. Calling them soon and seeing how much I can lower my bill further and get the ticket. Doesn’t work, moving on to Spectrum most likely. Even though I hate spectrum dearly. 1 Quote
eball Posted May 2, 2022 Posted May 2, 2022 I cancelled DTV after last season…looks like I did it one season too early. If any of you have a college kid willing to let me “borrow” their email address for a season please hit me up in a DM. Quote

Giuseppe Tognarelli Posted May 31, 2022 Posted May 31, 2022 Looks like even though it's the final year for Sunday Ticket on DirecTV, DirecTV is still going to be giving it away for free. Praise! 2 Quote
Matt_In_NH Posted May 31, 2022 Posted May 31, 2022 Did you get a notice or it was just on your bill? Quote
