I can't break my DirecTV addiction...
... they won't let me.

I was prepared to drop DTV for local channels via antenna plus Netflix, Hulu Plus and Amazon.

I called and they capitulated hand over fist. They lowered my bill significantly and added movie channels.

I think Google Fiber has a play in this. When I said GF will be here soon things changed.

Know the feeling...

Been with DTV since 1998... Cant seem to shake them.

Especially as a out of market sports fan. They have my soul in a jar on their desk.

It's even tough for an in-market sports fan to cut the cord entirely. Hockey games aren't broadcast OTA here, and they black out local markets online.

Yeah, I've heard that. I'm not a fan of using workarounds that could go away at any time though.

There is no way as a chiefs fan can i drop Sunday Ticket. I would be stuck with nothing but Raiders/Niners games. YEAHH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

Direct tv has me until the NFL allows more cable companies to have Sunday ticket. Once they do. Ill probably be all comcast.

Even if you are, they usually have some deals they can give you. I called a week ago just because it'd been a few months since the last time. The key is to say "cancel service" on the automation at the beginning. Get straight to retention, and treat them very nice. They're used to getting yelled at a lot, so a simple "how are you doing?" can go a long ways to developing a little rapport with the person answering the phone.
