[QUOTE="3xWVUenginEER, post: 129500149, member: 1476506"] got a question for anyone who has had a similar experience. Ok I got DirecTV almost 2 years back. First year paid like $52 a month Second year paid $102 a month after being told initially 2nd year would be $75 a month. That is a lie on DirecTVs part. Ok now I'm seeing that Dish has a 3 year locked in price of about $75 given same # of receivers and similar channels with only requiring a 2 year contract. So I call up DirecTV and tell them I will be leaving cause of Dish being cheaper. DirecTV comes back with an offer of like $71 and it's only a 12 month agreement. Ok given the history of DirecTV with the year 1 vs year 2 price, has anyone else ever done anything like this with a 1 year extension after the initial contract is up? If so is there fine print in this extension that makes it longer than 1 year? Also for the dish folks, do you have good experiences there? I don't want to jump from a bad to a worse situation.
