Default Direct TV Satisfaction - Yes!

Hi all:

A very satisfied Direct TV customer for 6 years. Lately I noticed the bill going up a little here and there plus I added MLB Extra Innings for my husband to watch the Detroit Tiger games (cost $50). That put our bill up to $203 a month. We had no movie channels. I did some research and found out that with Comast for the same I would be paying about $80 less using one of their introductory packages. I called Direct TV and talked with the retention department and told them about it. I was offered several scenarios taking my bill down about $20 at a time. I held tough and finally in the end I got the following:

Direct TV whole house Genie HD, 2 additional HD DVR's, maintenance package, Ultimate Direct TV package with 240 channels, MLB Extra Innings, HBO, Showtime, Cinemax, Starz, etc. and NFL Sunday Ticket! This is good for 1 year at $133 includes tax. That took my bill down $70 per month. I put it on my calendar to call again next year.
