Football Your yearly "Get DirecTV to discount NFL Sunday Ticket" thread - Page 2

**The Franchise** · 07-24-2015, 02:47 PM

Just called in and got it for free again....plus a $10 bill credit for 12 months and a $5 bill credit for 6 months.

Didn't even have to haggle with the guy.

Anybody else tried yet?

**notorious** · 07-24-2015, 03:53 PM

Wouldn't give a deal to a 15 year customer last year so I told them to go **** themselves.

They called the day Dish was here installing their equipment and offered the world. I told them to call back in 2 years.

I got the Max for free and got it free for my in-laws as well.

I'll give my password this year to somebody if you don't **** with my account.

What do you do? Can you stream it?

The NBA's decision to unbundle League Pass follows the settlement of a lawsuit filed against the National Hockey League. Hockey fans filed a class-action complaint against the NHL to similarly unbundle the league's streaming package.

The NBA's decision could be a harbinger for one of pay-TV's biggest products, the DirecTV-distributed NFL package NFL Sunday Ticket.

The NFL and DirecTV (NASDAQ: DTV) are currently being sued by bar owners, casinos and other businesses that show NFL games to customers. The complaint contends that Sunday Ticket should not be offered to DirecTV exclusively and should be opened to other pay-TV operators to increase competition and lower the price. The plaintiffs say the package currently violates two sections of the Sherman Antitrust Act.

In August 2014, DirecTV signed an exclusive, multi-year $12 billion deal with the NFL to re-up the Sunday Ticket package. The deal, which runs through 2022, increases DirecTV's licensing fees from $1 billion a season to $1.4 billion. Depending on their size, businesses pay between $2,314 and $120,000 a season to purchase Sunday Ticket access, the suit says.

They don't have to be attached to the house.

I have too many trees at my new house. I live so far north that the dish does not point up and if trees are too tall, they block the signal. But at least musk ox live next door. Not many people can say they have musk ox in their back yard.

I would never do that. I use to give my buddy my account. I'd just be logging in on Sunday and that's it. PM if you're serious.

T-Town · 07-24-2015, 04:47 PM

I'm hoping they bring Sunday Ticket to U-verse now that the AT&T and Directv merger is official. I had the streaming subscription last year but it was pretty poor quality at times.

Rasputin · 07-24-2015, 05:00 PM

I'm getting NFL Sunday Ticket free with direct TV this year. I better not have any ****ing problems with service connection because of bad weather. Twice now on stormy days I've had shitty reception and I got pissed off because Royals were playing. Rain should not interfere with connection ****ing bull shit. Year 2015 and I never had trouble with connection with cable before unless the power actually goes out. I didn't want to be like Meat head Rob Lowe so I got Direct TV to be like Rob Lowe.

**** you Direct TV if you can't keep me connected during a ball game. You sold me Creepy Customer Rob Lowe

If it does, I would count on next year.

What will make me mad is if ATT decide it is not worth it and drop it from Directv.

This merger will be interesting. Centurylink bundles directv with phone.
Will that continue to happen with the merger?
