Signed up with Direct TV last night ... here's the deal (we only needed the DVR box not one in the bedroom) $39.99/mo plan + DVR service included + $10 off my bill for 10 months + $100 visa gift card + $10 off my BIL's bill for 10 months for referring me. They'll be here Tuesday to install.:hurray::hurray: I can't wait to tell Time Warner to shove it. :ack::ack::ack: If any of you are interested in this let me know, you'll need my account number as a *referral* so we both save more $$. Offer expires 2/8/10.
Good luck. We seem to have problems with Directv's receivers going out. It's happened many times with ours.
Got the mega package includes locals channels also. OH I forgot we also get Showtime & Starz for 3 months FREE (but you have to call an cancel after the 3 mos or they bill you for it) Want me to drop off a copy for you today?
Throw one out at me too if you are out that way!! :cheers: Sick to death of Time Warner, but don't know if I can switch due to DH's work stuff. We'll see though! THanks!! :grouphug:
GL, we got rid of Direct last year. TW is alright just a few problems, no more than direct LOL They all suck, right? :jester:
HOpefully not. My bill will go from $75/mo TWC :ack: TO $29.99/mo with Direct and have MORE stations AND get the DVR back. DH is happy. :lol: KDC, I'll be out that way today sometime later on this afternoon, I'll take a copy to your house also.
I've had Direct since July 2008 and LOVE IT. Signal has only gone out once. Customer service has been awesome. I was so happy to get rid of TWC. Now if I could find reasonable internet service I could tell TWC to shove it completely :lol:
I had Dish Network but too many trees made it too wishy washy. I've had TWC for a year and a half and have to admit it's been good, but this last price increase it too much. I understand that Direct TV dish points higher in the air so the trees may not be an issue. My only reservation is that I need it in 4 rooms and I hate paying the extra $5.00 for the box in each room.
That's exactly WHY I switched! I know we only got it in the living room, because it's just the 2 of us and we NEVER watch TV in the bedroom and BIL has moved out, so this deal worked for me.
Did you have to sign a contract? I think I looked into the same and after one year the price doubled.
2 years, after the first year the plan goes to $65.99 which is STILL less than what I pay TWC for LESS channels and NO DVR. :boxing::boxing: Oh and if you move it's FREE.
At the 2 year point it's time to call the dude selling TWC at the $29.95 introductory price for 12 months.
