They are ones that will get things done if possible. On a somewhat related note, earlier this year when calling Spectrum to complain about current rates, I asked for the retention department, and was told they no longer have one. 😞 1 1 1 Quote
Nineforty Posted September 1, 2022 Posted September 1, 2022 Called and asked for Loyalty and got ST Max free, no hassle, easy peasy. Add'l $30/mo credit for 12 mo. I wonder if having another package active (MLB) makes a difference. She did mention me having that in passing/conversation.. 2 Quote

I was told the same by an internet provider several Months ago, and the guy was just flat wrong. It took some additional calls and maneuvering until I found the right people. All of these companies have retention people who will try to sweeten deals to prevent cancelation. I believe this whole “we no longer have a retention department” is a new scheme. 1 Quote

Surprisingly easy today. Pretty much the same for me. Like 3 months ago I gotta nice offer in the mail from Dish which included a $300 visa card. However, I didn't want to lock into a 2 year commitment and make the hassle of changing. So I called Direct TV and they gave me $50 off my bill for 12 months. It basically covers the Dish offer for the 1st year. After some thought, I decided to take the $50 off with the hope of getting the NFL ticket free. A month or so later, I called for the NFL ticket and got an offer. $300 for the NFL ticket with $20 off for 12 months as an offset. I said no thanks. The representative gave me the $20 off for 12 months with no ticket. I was surprised and took the additional money off. Today which is couple of weeks later I called to get the ticket for free. I was honest. I told the guy I called a couple of weeks ago and couldn't get it for free. I told him I just want the basic package if possible. No need for the Max option. He put me on hold and a few mins later I was given the NFL max for free. He even gave me a confirmation number just in case. I was pretty surprised. Quote
Xwnyer Posted September 2, 2022 Posted September 2, 2022 I am waiting for NFL to announce what is happening next year. I am in the process of moving and trying to decide on moving directv service with me or moving to a pure streaming option. Might give them a call and see if this move decision helps get some more one time credits Quote
