We've all seen the DirecTV commercial with the play on 'Speed Dating.' "Do you want to make 50 bucks the easy way?" While the commercial was annoying long before the 100th time I saw it, the point should not be forgotten. When I signed up for DirecTV I knew at least 10 families who had DirecTV service. Many of them knew I was planning to get DirecTV. It was only after I was a customer that I found out about the referral program. Had I simply stated when signing up for service that I was referred by my friends with account #: xxxxxx, we both would have received a total of $50 in bill credits. Instead, since no one mentioned this to me, we all passed up on free referral money. It is really quite sad to see how many companies offer free referral money, and then to know how many times service is obtained without anyone getting a referral bonus.When you are planning to sign up for new service with a company that a friend or family member already has service with, check to see if the company offers referral bonuses. Some that definitely do:
- DirecTV as mentioned offers $50 to the referring customer and the new referred friend.
- Dish Network offers $50 for the referring customer, though I'm not sure if the new customer gets a credit.
- Charter Communications offers $25 for each person on new phone service.
- AT&T offers a variety of $25-50 referral bonuses to the referring friend on new phone service, or new features on phone service (ie. adding long distance or high speed internet).
- Earthlink offers one month of free service or $25 cards for the referring friend on new internet or cable packages.
- AT&T Wireless (formerly Cingular) offers $25 for the referring customer and the new referred friend on new wireless plans.
- Many Credit Cards (at least Citi cards) frequently offer referral bonuses to the new card member and the referring card member.
Oh, and by the way, if you need someone to refer you to DirecTV, AT&T residential, or AT&T Wireless let me know, I'd be glad to give you the referral info needed to get the credit!

James,
GREAT article and a great reminder of how often we leave "free" money on the table.
Another one that I just started is with ingdirect online banking. If you refer a friend and their initial deposit is $250 or more, they get a $25 bonus in their account, and you get $10.
IF YOU WANT TO OPEN AN ACCOUNT, LET ME KNOW!

DirecTv keeps extending their referral credit program. I have had a couple of friends use my account number to get the $50 discount. If anyone wants to use me as their friend they are very welcome. All they'll ask is for my account number, which is 051312525. You'll get a $10/month for the 1st 5 months. Great deal!

I can also vouch for the DirecTV referral program. It is up to $100! Feel free to call me a friend and I certainly will be if you use my account # when you sign up (39786941). Plus, in my opinion DirecTV is by far the best television service out there. Comcast is garbage.
