$100 DirecTV Referral Credit...PLUS 25,000 American Airlines AAdvantage Miles!
You may have seen the DirecTV
ads (the happy Ben Franklins!) offering $10/month credit when you are
referred by a friend; to our mutual benefit, well I can be that friend. This is a very
easy discount to get. In fact, you don't even need to bid on this
auction (unless you want the feedback), because all the steps you need to take are right here. Note
that this additional $10/month credit is in addition to ALL other
regular DirecTV promotions, including their current promotion of $35-$40/mo
off during the first year, $10/mo off during the second year (depending upon package selected), and 3 months Free HBO/Showtime. If you are
planning on ordering DirecTV anyway, you have nothing to lose, and $100,
plus 25,000 American Airlines miles to gain!
When the referral is combined with the
American Airlines offer, this is an even better deal:
When ordering DirecTV through their
AA link, you
will also receive 25,000 American Airlines AAdvantage Miles (of course, after
activation). To stack this referral
discount along with the AAdvantage miles promotion, in addition to the other monthly
savings afforded all new customers (additional discounts are clearly
shown when you browse DirecTV's website and in their cart), take the following steps:
1) Go to the the American Airlines DirecTV landing page:
http://www.aa.directv.com/DTVAPP/index.jsp
2) Make sure you see the Above American Airlines banner at the top of
your page. If you do not, it is likely because you have a saved cookie
from a previous visit, in which case, clear your browser's cookies and
repeat step 1.
3) Click the orange "Get DIRECTV" button.
4) Go shopping! ...Select your desired programming package, choice of receivers and
then click the
orange "Proceed to Cart" button...
5) At the top of the shopping cart, enter your American Airlines
AAdvantage number to which your 25,000 miles will be credited. If you
don't have one, open an account at
https://www.aa.com/AAdvantage/quickEnroll.do
-- At this point, your additional $10 month referral discount has
not yet been applied. This next step is important, without which you
will miss the additional $100 savings --
6) In order to stack the referral discount open a new tab in your
browser (Ctrl+T) and enter the following link in the new tab:
http://www.directv.com/refer.
Note the AA logo is still at the top of the page.
In the upper left corner under
"Start here"..."enter your friend's DIRECTV account number here", enter
my account number number
032756567, and click the
orange "Get DIRECTV" button.
7) An updated shopping cart will be displayed, now reflecting a new line
under the "Discounts" section, "Referral Credit for 10 Months
-$10.00". If you're a side-by-side comparison person, you can toggle back to the first Shopping Cart tab in your
browser to compare -- that $10.00 discount will not exist in the first
tab. Just make sure you go back to the second tab before you complete
the order :).
8) Click the orange "Check Out" button, and complete your order.
If you are interested
in yet another alternate promotion which will give you $120 Costco Cash
(instead of the AA miles), also with the additional $100 referral
discount, please search my other auctions for an alternate step-by-step
on how to do so.
Lastly,
if you are more comfortable ordering over the phone, you can do
so using the special DirecTV Refer-A-Friend number
1-877-212-9263.
Again, my account number (the referral code) is
032756567
and my name is
Michael.
Beware though, the
AA promotion does not seem to be available when calling the
referral number, so you're savings will be a little disappointing.
Thanks for looking! Enjoy your new DirecTV service. They really do offer
the best value out there, and their HD quality is outstanding!
