You need to call in to their retention department and get that renegotiated. I have U300 with the sports package added on and only pay like $122/mo. Every time my contract comes up, I just call in to the retention department and talk to them about getting set up on a new deal. It's usually pretty easy.

I actually called ATT recently. I bought a house about a year ago, and at that time, went with Uverse because I knew they were going to carry the SECN, and to also cut my ties with Comcast. My year special is over, and seen my service go from $130 to $170 a month. I called and all they could give me was a 3 month special at $158, which supposedly carries some extra movie channels. I haven't checked that out yet.

Asked about just the family pkg (which I think is 100 channels along with the internet) and there wasn't much of a price reduction to bother with it. I told them if that's the best they can do for a long time customer (I date back with them to the old land line days) don't expect me to be around much longer, and they are way over priced. So now I'm looking around, and whatever choice I make has to have the SECN.
