Anyone had recent success getting them to lower the rate?  I used to get them down all the time, but our bill has been going up and they say there are "no discounts available".  They want give me 3 months free premium channels that I don't want.  Our bill is about $40 a month more than when we signed up.

  • I did about a month ago.  I had to ask to speak to a manager to get it to happen.

    What exactly did you say?  Just ask for a discount?

    I threatened to switch to Comcast if they didn't lower my rate.

    Did you get a good discount?  I am probably going to call this week.

  • $19 is $19.  I need to call them.  I just always worry they'll say ok, go to Comcast and I will have to say just kidding!

    I always have my back up "we got disconnected" plan and hang up on them if they say got to comcast.  My threat is totally empty.  $19 is $228 in a year.  And the phone call takes 5 minutes.

  • My husband recently called and got us a discount. The first person wasn't much help, so he reluctantly transferred him to the retention department. I think we ended up getting $30 or so off per month...for six months...at which time we have to play the game all over again.

    Even with the discount, I think it's outrageous how much we pay for TV and Internet. We love it though.
