They offer $90 off a month for 12 months (I was paying $135/month before) to get me to come back. I asked if they were offering deals on Sunday Ticket and if they throw that in, I'll come back. They agreed and I ended up getting both $90/month discount and free Sunday Ticket Max. Works every year, I haven't ever paid for Sunday Ticket.

What is this shit...
25 Mbps - DSL-2
25 Mbps down / 3 Mbps up
$54.95/month
Thats just ATT without a monthly bandwidth cap.
Got I hate that Cox is the only game in town if you want faster than 25Mbps. [Reply]

5 years ago eh. Don't ever get direct TV again. There is a correlation here. [Reply]

It had to be tied to a government program. There’s no way they do that for one family and expect to make money.
Was it back when Obama gave all that ARRA stimulus money? We did a 40 mile fiber run to establish a redundant path, but had to peel off runs for schools and a clinic to qualify for the grant. [Reply]
