Something to keep in mind is that Direct recently increased the cost of a service call from ~$70 to ~$90 so it is cheaper to get the plan then to pay for a service call everytime you need one.
Hello all...
Does anyone know the differences between the two plans? I currently subscribe to the $5.99/month plan and NOW when I log-in to DirecTV.com, it says for "full" protection get the $7.99/month plan.
I cannot find any information on this $7.99 plan anywhere on D*'s website. All I was able to pull up was this information on the $5.99/month plan:
DIRECTV - PROTECTION PLAN
I know that the protection plan is just a way for them to make a butt-load of money anyways, but I like to have it myself because I am not good with electronics.
Thank you in advance for your help and input...
Thanks bud! Ya...I just wanted to be clear on certain things before I drop the insurance.
Sorry...one more quick question: Say if for example I have a message error on my screen (771...etc...). Do they charge you for those kind of problems too?
Thanks again!
Most cases its not worth it IMO. If you have some knowledge on the service save your money. If you don't know a thing about satellite and you 80 years old , Buy it. But most times D* will send you a replacement receiver for the cost of shipping anyhow. about $20.
The 5.99 protection plan just got different looking under my "setup" tab at Directv.com
I see these 2 lines under the protection plan section:
$5.99
Advanced Product $7.99 Monthly
The 5.99 is bold, and the 7.99 one is lighter and smaller. I just paid my bill and it was 5.99. So what gives with the website?
Ya...this is the issue I had and why I originally started this thread. Apparently, it's a computer glich and there is no $7.99 plan.
