| [DIRECTV] Programming Choices
I've been a DTV subscriber for ~12 years.
I received the email notice of the price increase, so I thought I would take a look at what I have, and see if I need to adjust my package content.
Usually I am pretty good at figuring things out, but after going through the programming packages on the web site, I find myself quite confused. Nothing seems to compare with what I have for some reason.
Here is what I have - as listed on my latest statement:
Total Choice 44.99 Networks (x4) @2.25 9.00 DVR Service 5.99
I don't see any networks listed as extra in any packages. I don't see DVR service as extra in any packages.
Maybe I should just leave well enough alone? Or do I need to go through and write down all the channels that I like, and see if I can come up with a similar package?
I guess I first looked at this because of the price increase, but since I can't find my Total Choice package, how do I know what my increase will be? | |   goober22 Resident Duh-Huh Member

join:2001-12-28 Panama City, FL | I believe you get it at your billing cycle or if you receive a paper bill, as an insert when you hit your feb billing cycle. -- Certified Jenius! | |   snowman C'Mon Snow Premium join:2001-12-09 united state
