TBBills Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 I doubt we will need this I think the NFL is gonna try and have as many games on national TV as they can. 1 minute ago, transplantbillsfan said: The criminals are those hosting the illegal streams, not those viewing them via livestream. Criminals are the ones not sharing the free streams with the rest of us. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ned Flanders Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Best they could offer was $40 off/month with nothing off ST. Has anybody tried or heard anything about the eBay route? https://www.ebay.com/itm/NFL-Sunday-Ticket-MAX-Entire-2020-Season-350-FB-Near-Instant-Delivery-Warranty/254680463628?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160811114145%26meid%3D118ccdb7ce254daaab751be524d04c97%26pid%3D100667%26rk%3D6%26rkt%3D8%26mehot%3Dnone%26sd%3D274456351710%26itm%3D254680463628%26pmt%3D0%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D2334524&_trksid=p2334524.c100667.m2042 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mailman Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 I was a long time DTV subscriber starting back in 2001. A few years ago I cut the cord and was lucky enough to live in a townhouse in South Carolina eligible for streaming only. Did that for a few years then moved. So now every year, just like I did yesterday, I go on the site and put in my old SC address to give me the green light for ST and I change my credit card address to my old SC residence just long enough to pay then switch it back to current address. Works every time. Yes its pricey but worth it to me, since I've seen every Bills game since 86. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo Boy Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Just called. Got NOTHING! They said they would send me an email if anything came available. I’m easy, all I needed was the old “ Knock $12/ month off” and I would have been happy. Will try again next week. This time with a cancel service opener. I’ve been with DTV for 22 years. No credits available, asked about people getting free DTV= nothing. On top of other BS, am pretty pissed right now. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I called last August, but was still under contract until 12/20 so they said they had nothing to offer me. I just called a week ago, month to month now, and they gave me a good deal in like 5 minutes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m mad that they are giving it to others for free and I’ve never gotten that in any year. You should have at least gotten something! Even 30-40/month sheesh. Maybe try the twitter or chat route. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask for customer loyalty, be complimentary on the DT service, then tell them money is really tight, and may have to cancel, most of the time you'll get a discount on bill and free ST Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HereComesTheReignAgain Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 I live in an apartment that does not have the option for directv. I entered my address on the website to see if I can get the streaming service. I cannot. I just called and talked to someone at directv. Apparently there is nothing they can do to verify that my address should qualify for the streaming service. This seems ridiculous. I told the rep that I’m willing to pay for the service if they simply validate my address! I’m really annoyed and frustrated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I re-upped last week, I said I didn't want a contract, the CSR concurred, and said he "put it in the notes" that there is no contract on my account. You cannot find anything about your "contract" online, so it seems, yes, you need to call and ask. More AT&T shenanigans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on my mood at the time of the call I may just put an end to my NFL Ticket subscription. I'm tired of going through this charade every year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thenorthremembers Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Got rid of both the ticket and DTV when I moved into a new house last August. I found that their customer service and ability to work with you on prices had completely reversed course. I felt like I was talking to Spectrum and not DTV.

Bills4life1924 Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 (edited) Just made my yearly call(I dread it, but worth it), and for 4th straight year I accepted $60 off per month for 12 months. I'll call next week to get my annual Ticket discount(hoping I can talk them into free this year). Side note, I see plenty of negatives on this post and I feel for ya. Best advice was already posted above, tell them "money is tight and trying to see if any promotions available, if not we may have to cancel".. Good Luck guys!!
