Called back and they said the previous agent had not entered the info into their system but unfortunately the same "deals" were not available. Negotiated a new rate slightly higher that I had been quoted the prior month. Next months bill came in and, you guessed it, bill was double what I had been quoted. To make a long story short I am now on month 5 and have yet to get a bill that matches what I keep being promised. Looks like I will go back to DirecTV. Tried Comcast and fired them after 4 months. Life is too short to deal with CenturyLink's Non-Customer Support. Stay away unless you have no choice and if you sign up make sure you check your bill every single month.
If you do go back to Direct TV, go through Costco if you can. They have a much better deal than going direct. We can also both get $100 credit if you acknowledge you were referred.
