Discount for disabled people

My mother died the first of December.  Now I am left alone to try and pay the bills by myself on my disability check alone.  Are there any discounts for people on disability?

I hate to have to turn it off because I really do love DIRECTV - but I can go to Hulu or YouTube tv if I have too.

You need to call 1-800-531-5000 to see if there are any discounts available to you, in general DTV doesn't have any type of group discounts so removing TVs or lowering your channel package are the only way to reduce the bill.

I am so sorry for your loss it is always difficult when you lose a loved one.  Unfortunately, there are no discounts it would be nice if there were.  The only way to make your bill cheaper and continue to have DIrectv would be to have Directv Stream bring your own device which would mean you would have to stream your service through a Smart TV or external streaming devices such as a Roku, Firestick, etc....  This would eliminate the receiver fees making it essentially cheaper than the Sat service.
