Just an FYI for those of you who subscribe. I've read on other message boards how you can call DirecTV to have the subscription price reduced. I just called and told 'em I really only have DirecTV for the Sunday Ticket and the price is getting prohibitive. Plus, I can receive some nice offers from my local cable company for switching and package all my utilities together (TV, Phone and Internet).
He gave me $60 off the price of Sunday Ticket (from $229 to $169) without question. I bluntly asked him for some free HBO and he obliged giving me 3 free months of HBO for the wife.
It took less than 10 minutes to do.
