ChiefsPlanet - View Single Post - Football Your yearly "Get DirecTV to discount NFL Sunday Ticket" thread

So we've had DTV for a year now and a lot of those intro promos are rolling off and our bill has jumped from $65 to about $115 now. (Choice + Sports Pack during baseball season) I tried calling twice and the first guy only offered me $10 off each installment of Sunday Ticket, so $60. The second guy I told to take off Sunday Ticket and then he offered $15 bill credit for 12 months and it was basically take it or leave it so I hung up. Should I just keep calling until I get someone who will work with me. I'm hoping for ST for free and knocking my bill down back to around $75 or so hopefully. Seeing what some of you have gotten I didn't think that was too ambitious, but will they not offer much since I'm still under contract for a year and have only been with them 1 year?

EDIT: So third try was a charm...got pretty much exactly what I was hoping for above. Bill is locked in at $77 for 6 months, free NFL ST, and in 6 months I can probably call again and maybe get more credits, cancel and pay only $100 ETF then and go somewhere else, or cut the cord altogether which I've been considering more and more if I can find a good option for live sports.
