Please specify the context of the sentence. :)
However, if you mean as in:
-She had told him she loved him.
-They had said it was okay.
-She had said she was lost.
.Andrew told Arthur he had always envied him.
Those are a few examples of when you can use the word said or tell without having to use the word that before the predicate. Actually, using the word that is more of an optional choice than rule. I would actually recommend not using it a lot because it can become a habit of speech in which you tend to use the same word over and over in unnecessary repetition. This could distract readers and listeners instead of gaining their attention. I recommend, therefore, that you avoid using the word that after the word say or tell, for it will make you lose emphasis and people will lose interest.
