    Okay, I called the number with Gman's permission.
    There was no specific holiday promotion, but the representative did a search of all discounts that I have not used.
    I upgraded the service from HD to HD with Genie, including free upgrades of 3 boxes and remotes - to be installed next week.
    The installation fee of $24 was added and then credited.
    I changed my Premium Package around switching to HBO from Showtime (additional $4/month savings for special HBO pricing this month - for 12 months).
    And, I got the maximum discount of $60 off a month for 12 months - savings of $720 for the year with no charges for the upgrades.
    The representative explained that discount was available because I have been with DirectTV for 5 years and have not asked for any discounts. (Shame on me??)
    Chaffee2's post has paid for my membership here on the Forums.
    Thanks!

    I did some quick Googling and it looks like the real deal. There's a Reddit that was posted 14 days ago that DirecTV was giving "loyalty discounts". This was picked up by Slick Deals, Tech Crunch, etc.
    Liberals never met a slippery slope they didn't grease.

    I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.
