We often add programming based on customer requests, and I have forwarded your request to DIRECTV management. If we decide to carry this channel, would you like to receive an email when it’s available? If so, please reply to this email to confirm that you agree to be contacted. In addition, whenever we add channels to our lineup, we release a statement to the press, so keep an eye on the news to find out about the newest channels or visit our web site at directv.com/pr
Also, now is one of the best times to sign up: our current offer allows you to get 4 months of our best programming package FREE when you sign up for NFL SUNDAY TICKET at $69.99 a month. And right now, we’ll also give you the remaining weeks of NASCAR HotPass – FREE (a $49 value). That’s nearly $450 in FREE programming!
I realize that you may have some other questions, so we have set up two ways for you to get fast answers to all of your questions and begin enjoying DIRECTV:
