our annual uverse promo is up in a few weeks and we’re looking to switch to something else. called today to see if there was any retention type offers if i switched to att tv. here’s what i’ve learned so far
once we cancel uverse, we can never get it back
their “retention” offer to migrate to att tv costs more than the new customer price by 25%
seems that att tv is the contract version of contract free att tv now
att tv price increases to att tv now prices in 2nd yr ($80/mo yr 1, $135/mo yr 2)
signing up with the wife’s info nets us $400 gc to offset the yr2 price increase
we just finished trials of yttv, att and hulu live. what i’m quickly learning is that all these streaming services are the same, and there’s not really much difference price wise to cable/uverse. i’m leaning toward canceling uverse just so i can get att back out to reinstall the fiber lines with their new equipment. my shit is 7 years old already.
