I was a loyal customer from '97 to around 2017 but now need to go different, big D.
Starting over I would appreciate some ideas of who to go with? I have Amazon Prime. Just order from there? I gots to brush up on my fantasy stats. Thanks! Edit: Just got the kids email. I'm gonna try the college kid discount. Last edited by rtmike; 08-10-2021 at 08:17 AM.. |

This thread just saved me ~$800. Because of the earlier posts regarding a few people getting Sunday Ticket free this year, I called in (lying...kind of) on Aug. 8th and told them that I had 2 friends that got emails saying that their NFL Sunday Ticket was free this year. Told them (lying again) I had been with DirecTV and Sunday Ticket longer than both of these guys and that since I wasn't getting Sunday Ticket for free to just cancel it. Said I'd stream games on illegal streaming websites, and that this unpleasant experience would probably cause me to drop DirecTV altogether.
Some chick from DirecTV left a message later that day saying they could offer me a $60 loyalty discount, but she didn't specify whether it was a one-time discount or $60/mo so I didn't respond. Opened my monthly bill email this morning and saw that they not only didn't cancel Sunday Ticket per my request, they were charging me full price for it. Called in and told them that on August 8th 2 different reps confirmed my Sunday Ticket cancellation request, so why was I being charged for it? Told them I wanted it cancelled and that I was going to look into Hulu or some other streaming service and drop them altogether. Got transferred to a "loyalty discount specialist" who offered me a $60/mo loyalty discount for 12 months, plus an additional $16 discount for 6 months, and Sunday Ticket Max. ![]() ![]() |

Hey guys, it’s time to figure out how I’m gonna watch Chiefs football this year. I currently have no satellite service. I’m doing the Hulu, Netflix, Amazon deal. What are my options?? Do I need direct tv? Can I stream some service to my cell phone??

Do you want to stick to legal options?

Those illegal streams in my experience are so hit and miss. I just wanna wake up Sunday morning and know I'm gonna be able to watch the game.

Pretty sure you can just purchase streaming Sunday Ticket for your phone or tablet. Will cost you a few hundred but it’s an option

Last year, I got a buddy to sign up who lived in an apartment and couldn't get a dish. They haven't seemed to try too hard to prevent you from sign up for streaming in the last few years. Although I haven't yet tried this year.
I used to sign up with a student account which was cheap. I don't know if they still offer that. But I don't know as many college students anymore. |

Your yearly "Get DirecTV to discount NFL Sunday Ticket" thread
Sources: NFL prefers Apple for Sunday Ticket; package could offer more choices

Get a VPN. Connect to Brazil. Signup for NFL International Gamepass. $74 for the season + 13/mo vpn if you wouldn't normally have one.
You get all games Live, playoffs, Superbowl (no blackouts), All older games (I only looked through last year), NFL redzone and 40 min condensed games. https://www.expressvpn.com/stream-sports/nfl/ Issue I have run into is getting it onto a TV. I've been using a laptop output via HDMI, works great. You can set up the VPN for your whole network which would allow you to cast. Supposedly there is also a international Gamepass app for firestick. Beware running work devices through VPN, 15 minutes after installing VPN I got pinged by the network Admin asking me if I was in Brazil.... Network flagged me for travelling from Kansas to Brazil in minutes, locked my account. |

Dumb question, short version:
My mom lives an hour from KC and has Dish network. Does Dish have Ballys sports for the royals games? She’s not technical at all, and forget about me trying to talk her through the phone on setting up something from the web. Thanks in advance, you are all beautiful. |

Not a fan of streaming. Feels like I am watching the game in the past. I have directv. I guess we will have to make a decision once this happens. |
