Oh yeah I just remembered this, a friend of mine has a box that picks up everything dish network offers, I think he paid like a $50 a year for it, I'll check on that if you want.

Ok so i will share my secret Im paying a low bill on direct tv, heres what you do when they have a new offer you call every six months and have them match it or give you a credit. They offer good deals for new customers so i just state why should I stay a customer if you dont care for old committted customers and they always lower my bill and match what they give new customers. Plus they offer the referral for 100$ for new customers, its broken down to 10$ a month but you can do as many referrals as you like for almost a free cable bill for months.
So now you know.

 

[Metal85]

Yeah major findout, and XXXX we tried part of that
