to swap your account to your wife's name (as long as you are not breaking your contract and all)....

Not that I would ever do something like that...

because that was going to pretty much be the only way I'd get to see any Niners games.

If you've gotten it for $59/month for 4 months over the last couple year, I'm pretty sure that you got some sort of deal on it. I called them and even talked to a manger last year to ***** and moan about the pricing, and they wouldn't come down a dime from $385. They gave me $10 off my bill for 6 months and offered to spread the $385 out over 12 months, but they wouldn't lower the price. This was all while they were offering it for free for new customers so I was highly pissed.

and on the third time they ask, "are you sure?... well here's what we can do." you reply by saying: "give me sunday ticket for free and i'll stay with you guys."

at least i did after the first year i had it when i didnt know it automatically rolled over the follwoing year....called to cancel because i thought it was bush league (and i had thought i read the fine print too) after they had charged the first 2 months without my knowledge (auto pay at the time)...

for whatever reason... it renewed at that price because I did not cancel it. But, I had it for 3 years and watched the terrible years of the Niners... then, last year, I did not renew it and got to watch 2-3 games....

For the sake of superstition, I will not renew this year and hope networks pick up the Niners more...

in the recent past....seems like I was getting billed 6 months at 50-something bucks a pop for the last 3-4 years. Last year, I called to cancel it, and they cut me a deal for a one-time payment of 119.00....needless to say, I jumped on it.

Living in Costa Rica I am used to a "gringo tax" on about everything from rides in a taxi to prices on buying a house. But seeing this has made me aware of the first "gringo discount" in several year, although it is not enough to make up for the difference in everything else.

I just got an early renewal email to renew my online subscription to NFL Sunday Ticket. It is $89 is I pay before the end of May, or $119 after.

Works great for me, just connect my laptop to an HDMI cable and using a bluetooth keyboard and mouse I can watch NFL games in any tv in my house. Many of the beachfront spots bars do the same things, just get a couple of subscriptions for multiple computers and play all games during the season this way.

I did notice that the pricing is only for international customers and when traveling in the U.S. last year for one week I was unable to access my account due to my IP addess being in the U.S.

I would wonder if using a VPN could work in reverse and make your IP address outside the U.S. and pick up a $100 or so subscription and just connect to the VPN to watch games during the season? I do it in the reverse, connect through a VPN to get a U.S. IP address and use sites such as HULU.

the thing to do seems to be to bite the bullet one year and then just threaten to cancel every year after that. Now that it's down to $199, I think that's exactly what I'll do this fall
