So I called AT& T today to get better pricing for the Sunday Ticket and I started by saying that I wanted to cancel the ticket.
The cheery customer service woman said "OK. I'll take that off your account. Why do you want to cancel". I said doing the math, the price comes out to just under $400 and with other people getting deals for $200 and less, I felt that I was getting the short end of the stick. She responded by saying, "we do offer 6 payments, so you don't have to pay it all at once" and while I told her I understood, it still was $400 while others are paying far less.
Bottom line, the ticket was cancelled. I did get a retention offer to stay with DirectTV with $45 a month taken off the bill, so I'm saving over $500 a year on my current monthly price, but no ticket.
Question - sort of the same as the one in the thread below about streaming on the computer - what are my options to watch giants games? I'm just thinking I'll Reddit stream them like I do when out of the country - I won't have the discipline to wait until after the game is over to use GamePass. Any cheap ways to get the Red Zone channel?
I think it has something to do with how much you've paid. Do you the top of the line package? Over years the $$ add up

But you'd have to pick up those pesky details by exhibiting reading comprehension....
Read your own thread title.
At least you can put your monthly savings to purchasing the Ticket or your sports bar tabs. Have fun...whoops, I mean LOL.
Now you are just trying too hard. And the irony will be dripping the next time you say "that Googs guy must have gotten under your skin, huh".

Haven’t ordered it in about 5 years. Not sure how they select who to give it to.

Not top of line and I even cancelled HBO/Cinemax about a year ago. But they certainly have made their money off me over the years.
So for the rare Sundays I was home - someone on here suggested a way to watch games each week that was more reliable than streams.
And referenced above - Sunday Game Pass and VPN.
The NFL Sunday Game Pass streams real time (all games) on a per season or per week basis for non US residents. For a fee.
So, first you get a VPN. I used one called Private Internet Access (PIA). That is about $6 per month IIRC.
Then you start your VPN and set your location to be a country in Europe (could probably be anywhere i guess). I used UK or France usually.
Once you are connected via VPN then go to NFL website and you will notice it has a .eu on the end and the site looks a little different and you can sign up for NFL Game pass - I think it was $22 per week. But it lasts for two Sundays.
Anyway, once connected you can watch any game on your computer.
I connected a Chrome Cast so I was able to watch on my TV from my computer.
Worked great and made far more sense to me than spending a few hundred on the Sunday Ticket when I might be home 3 or 4 sundays - not counting the weeks where the Giants played at night or were otherwise my national game.

He clearly did.
As far as watching games I have Verizon and they stream limited games on the phone so I watch at work. Everything else is Reddit streams. The gamepass would be great for me.
I hope you and your family are well

Don't forget my $900

Used the code and am watching redzone and games.
