muppy Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 that turned into a very profitable phonecall to AT&T (Direc-tv) they knocked $45.00 a month off our bill and the sunday ticket for 2020 is Free. **Happy dancing**** this kind of discount never has happened before. Thanks for all the helpful advice here especially the loyalty line direct phone link. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillnutinHouston Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 (edited) So 8 days ago I ended up cancelling my account out of frustration after 100 minutes on the phone. Today I decided to try calling again. Got a $55/month credit for a year, no contract, Sunday Ticket Max free, and a refund for the first installment payment for ST of $65.99 that I was previously charged. I'm actually happy with DTV at this point. Never thought I'd say that again! Edit: the magic number for Customer Loyalty is 866-595-2871 Edited August 28, 2020 by BillnutinHouston 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albanybillsbacker Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 I made my annual call and got $60 off a month ($72.00 for the 185+ package and regional sports ), free Sunday ticket max, and 4 months of showtime, with no contract extension. Worth the call. Usually I have to cancel and wait for the we want you back box. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Recall, a few months ago I called to complain about not receiving the “ST Max Free” email and the rep gave me $100 off for three months to offset the cost. Well, with that promotion expiring I called again today. Requested “customer loyalty” and got a nice gentleman named Paul. He told me ST Max is already on my account for no charge, and gave me another $45/mo discount for the next 12 months. Was on the phone for a total of about 10 minutes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I called them; asked what they could do for me; they put me on hold for like 5 minutes (checking back in with me every 90 seconds); and then gave me Sunday Ticket Max for free. I am kind of dumbfounded. I usually negotiate it down to like 30%-50% off. Amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike in Horseheads Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Just made the annual call. 1st guy was a real ***** only wanted to tell me how I could cut the bill by dumping stuff. Finally said look, I called loyalty not for this nonsense. ,,, Called back a few minutes ago. Got a pleasant lady and told her about my bad experience. We gabbed for a bit about while she was checking and I got my $60 off a month and free Sunday ticket Max. No discount off my HBO like I got last year oh well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I access the link it says the price is $100. Thanks I think you're right. My sister-in-law sent me a screenshot of what she saw when she typed in her school email and it's $24.99 per month for 4 months. Do you or anyone else know who's used the NFL Sunday Ticket U? My only concern is what devices are supported. In the description it says "watch on your compatible tablet, smartphone, laptop, or connected device like a game console." There's a link at the bottom of "Supported Devices" but since I only got a screen shot from my sister-in-law I don't know what those are. I have a Samsung Smart TV. It's not a device so I'm guessing it wouldn't be supported. But the TV has an Internet Browser. Anyone know if that would work because the platform thinks it's a laptop? I don't think my 1st generation Roku would work. Would a Chromecast work? Anyone know? If I can't put it on my big screen TV, I don't want it.

Heads up to anyone that takes advantage of this package. This year's discount code is TEAMHUDDLE. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
