But Christ, we can cut our bill by like 70% going with a streaming service. We're paying $180+ and don't even have the biggest package.
Guess my Sundays have been freed up.
before i went with 80 bucks for internet access plus 130 for direct tv 3 lines, to comcast which is 140 total i get the same amount of channels plus internet and free cell phone service. how could i say no? lol [Reply]

The only reason I keep them is Sunday Ticket. I’m out of market for Chiefs games. I’ll just find another way to watch. [Reply]
Game Day Threads are awful.
Watching 1 hour of actual football with 2+ hours of timeouts/challenges/commercials each game? Not wasting that weekend time.
3 teams to focus on every Sunday? Screw that. Can just catch up on all of them through the week and at my leisure with GamePass.
The Ticket's just not worth the cost or trouble anymore.
NFL fans who watch games on DirecTV’s Sunday Ticket are going to pay a little more next season.
According to tvanswerman.com, the basic Sunday Ticket package price is increasing from $281.94 in 2017 to $293.94 for games this fall. Add in a package that includes the Red Zone channel and the Fantasy channel, and the cost will be $395.94.

There's some truth to this.
My contract is up in May and I'm going to youtube.tv and an antenna and calling it good. Done with paying $100+ for TV. Only reason I've kept them this long is Time Warner was my other option here and fuck those cocksuckers, fuck them forever. [Reply]

Don't know where you are, but some of the streams have local channel availability. Hulu, Sling, DirectvNow... [Reply]

I'm in KC. I'll explore all those options a little more thoroughly as I get closer to my contract coming up, if they've got local channels even better! I just figured I'd have to do the antenna route for locals. [Reply]

I know locals are available on Directv Now and Hulu for Kansas City. No antenna needed. [Reply]
Last season I didn't realize that you had to sign up for the expanded Season Ticket package to get Red Zone, because you never had to in the past. I bitched so much about it after the first weekend that they gave me Red Zone for the rest of the season plus $50/mo off my bill for one year, so I saved $600. [Reply]
I didn't get Sunday Ticket for free, but I don't need it. Chiefs games are locally available here. But I did call DirecTV and tell them that I wanted to cut the cord because I just got my fiber internet. They dropped my bill $60/ month for a year. I agreed to that and kept them. [Reply]
Wow I am shocked at you guys bad experience with Direct TV. I just switched to them since Cox internet sucked ass and I get all the channels that I had, free HBO since the wife and I have AT&T cell service and of course Sunday Ticket. It is $151 a month with gigabit internet via fiber optic. It is the fastest internet I have ever seen! The switch saved us $120 a month. [Reply]
