DirecTV

I am so sick of this company and it's high rates.And reps who barely speak Goodwin English.Doing and saying anything to get you off the phone.It's like they don't want to do their job.I can't even get a rep who understands how to read a bill.And that's what they are supposedly trained on.This is a rip off cable company. I hope this company loses all their customers.Because their agents need to be unemployed.They do not want to work.

I have been trying to get a refund from direct tv for a week now I keep getting the run around on my own money. I have talked to 4 customer service workers and 2 supervisors. All who gave different information. What I don't understand if everyone had the same training and knowledge on direct tv why several different answers. I was told 72 hrs then told once its processed it's another 72 hrs to a supervisor ms Maggie telling me it's processed and return it's my bank fault and to contact them. My bank has no process. Call back get another supervisor jake who is rude and yelling telling me he can't provide me any information or can't tell me where my money went to. No help at all. And when I asked to speak to someone else he claimed he was the highest of the supervisor. I doubt that since he don't own direct tv. So I hung up to speak to some one else. Next I get rob who is no supervisor but was able to explain everything including the card number my money went back to. And when I should receive it. Explaining that it take 5 to 10 business days and not 72 hrs. How do a regular employee handle a problem that 2 supervisor can't handle. So clearly promotions was given to the wrong people. It's no way to talk to some one when you have a complaint they don't offer you anything for your inconvenience. When my contract is up I will not be returning to DIRECTV. To be yelled at and made incompetent by a supervisor a company who accepts that does not need my money or service

We live in Florida and own a seasonal residence (open April - November) in Virginia. I suspended the account when we returned to Florida in 2015 and un-suspended in April 2016 when we returned to Virginia. This is a campground that closes in November and does not reopen until April. We have no need for Direct TV during the months we are gone when the campground is closed. The electricity is turned off during that time. 3

I have called seven times today to possibly speak with someone who is from the USA and speaks English as a FIRST language. It is not humanly possible. They refuse to transfer the call or give our an alternative number to call. I suspect its because they are working from home in Indonesia. The web site says ATT/Direct TV is an American company. Where are those people?

I am trying to find out about extending the reconnect until we arrive in June and not pay for needless/worthless service during the time we are not there. So far I have yet to get anyone who understands what I am asking. I also tried to find out how much it would cost to discontinue service, because I know from previous posts, that they charge outlandish charges to your CC that they mandate you give them when the account is opened. No one could give me that information.

I have tried finding an email address for Direct, but the web site directs you to the phone number for the call center in Indonesia, I suppose.

I was suppose to get a Visa gift card for changing my network to you guys and I was not told that I had to remind you to mail all the necessary steps to receive what I was told after I was qualified for your services. Now I just found out that I had until 4/19th/ 2017 which was yesterday and it is saying that I'm not untitled to get the Visa gift card just because I wasn't informed that I had to remind them to mail all the necessary paper work for me to get the Visa gift card. Also they was suppose to send me a confirmation number and they never did. What can be done about this when like I said I wasn't told that I had to remind them to mail all the necessary paper work. I was told by the technician that I would receive it after 90 days of having the service.

I purchased direct tv through cotsco. Sales rep told me the app would work the same evening to watch direct tv. It wouldn't work at all. Can I cancel without being charged? I haven't had it installed yet. Can I just change my debt card number so they can't bill me? Now that I am reading horrible complaints about Direct TV I don't want anything to do with it.

I am the owner of a 50 unit apartment building in West Los Angeles.I discovered just recently that AT&T DirecTV ignored and violated my alarmed roof access door and proceeded to walk on my flat roof and then installed one of their dishes at the request of my tenant, without contacting property management or me the owner.
When I called AT&T's office of the president they informed me that their policies are responsive to tenant requests and that they have no obligation to get the permission of the property owner or management. This is preposterous. Our roof has no guard railing and therefore is it dangerous to walk on and is in violation of OSHA laws to work on without proper safety precautions (https://www.osha.gov/Publications/OSHA3755.pdf ), yet I am aware of no precautions taken by AT&T DirecTV to protect their workers. Further, a worker walking on a large flat roof like ours can step on nails or other debris and pierce the waterproofing membrane and cause water to leak into our top floor apartments.
AT&T DirecTV has indicted to me that this is not their concern. On AT&T's own website forum they recognized that they cannot install their dishes on apartment building roofs ( https://forums.att.com/t5/DIRECTV-Installation/Moving-to-apartment-with-installation-restrictions/td-p/4706798 ) but they do it with complete disregard for the building owner's property rights.
I see this as just another example of a large company putting themselves above others, as we all just saw with United Airlines.ONE MORE BAD CORPORATE CITIZEN.

had DT moved to a new address cost 99 dollars the guy come said it would be about a week he would come back and finish after the electric had checked for underground cables well they came he never came back still on ground and got a bill for 140 installation which was never completed and then sent another bill for 140 for same thing then they shut my service off .nothing but problems from customer service very rude .

I have been charged $44.95 since getting Direct TV in August of 2015 for sports channel. I purchased Direct TV at Best Buy and made it clear I do not watch football. I did not ask for it and don't want it but was still charged. I want it removed and compensation for all the payments. I am sure Direct TV is capable of reviewing what channels are watched, I have never watched a football game since the install. I'm really upset about this. seems there is no freebees for being a long time customer the monthly bills get higher instead of lower..

When I moved here on April1 I had set up to have my direct tv installed April 5 when I called to confirm it was changed no reason why after a number of calls on April 5 a supervisor was rude and hung up I was all so told I would get two months of service at no charge that didn't happen either it amazing how good they use to be know directv has gone to #### when I got the bill today I called there was record of it no surprise this is a list of calls 4-3-17 supervisor hung up rude customer service 4-4-17 was told because of my bad service one month free service 4-5-17 no show for install was told change to [protected] not given a reason why changed 4-7-17 called for early install told reason for change not enough installer sent you a text no text received 4-8-17 called was told no early install would give me another month free service never happen finally installed 4-12-17 called about bill was told no record of calls no surprise

On 04/05/2017 I received my final bill from disconnecting my Direct TV well on 04/07/2017 Direct TV withdrew the full amount of 279.85$. I have not had Direct TV on auto pay but I called and spoke with your customer service on this matter due to the amount of withdraw and the time frame was not fitted I pay my bills but not having a notice and withdrawing the full amount and being on a fixed income now has put my family into a financial bind. So as i spoke with the rep she informed me the funds would be refunded and this way I could pay my auto loan and pay as much as I could to Direct TV well as of 04/14/2017 i received a call from another rep Chris who she informed me the funds would not be refunded to the account and was very rude not allowing others to speak. I then informed Chris i would love to speak to her supervisor she informed me that was not going to happen for she was the manager. Ms. Chris employee number is 906512. So what Direct TV has done is now from gone from saying we will refund the money to no we will not is not only lye to a clientele base but could now not only affect to a person but is now going to never get a positive review from this customer. And will be not getting any kind of good reviews from this home and I will for sure not recommended Direct TV i used to recommend you all but after this incident I would never ever recommend Direct TV. You have lye and committed fraud. You should never tell people we will refund the funds and then back door and say oh we are not going to do this. Cause it is in your contract clause. I see how your customer service is now and how much you as a corporate appreciate your customers is enough to lye to them boldly then to retract there statements. And to be told there is no other higher supervisors or managers to speak with is just utter crap. I am disputing this with my bank but I am physically sickened that you as a corporate would lye to your customers.

I have had Direct TV for over 15 years and had very little problems. But when AT&T took over the company the whole company went to crap. The worst customer service I have ever had. This company needs to be shut down. The people are rude . A couple of months ago I came home from work to find that I had no TV service called Direct TV my bill was paid what could be the problem. I could not get any answers from any body. We did get a phone message on our answering machine a week or so earlier with a phone number but no message. I tried several times times left message after message and no one would call me back. I don't know what is going on and no body would give me any kind of answer. Then the worst thing of it all I had just got my mother to sign up with Direct TV and cancel her own satellite service company. She found a coupon that was suppose to give her a gift card for signing up with Direct TV. We also told them that we recommended my mother. So mself and my mother were going to get 100 credit ovr 10 dollars per month .I or my mother ever got anything nothing. So they are a bunch of lies that cheat people. My mother is a 87 years old leaves on a fixed income. They will screw over and anybody. I have all of their boxes that they need to send some body or postage paid box to mail back or I'm going to put in my trash. To this day I have not heard from them. We were never told any thing. So they can go to he'll. But I want everyone to know what a company like this is bad to Thier customers. My bill monthly was over 160.00 and I had no movie channels at all. I switched to Spectrum I pay the same or less but I now have all the movie channels, high speed Internet and home phone an in all my rooms I have DVD service in all rooms. It's Thier loss not mind. I'm very happy with my new service. So everyone should switch today.

Hello my name is DaVita Hopkins and I'm violin and complain against DirecTV fortunately withdrawing money out of my account torrent services that I supposedly had used. With this being said I have not been a customer with DirecTV sense November of last year. However here it is the month of April of 2017 I was billed $437 first something I did not do call service I no longer have since I am not a customer how is it that's you could use my card information that was on file but I am no longer a customer this is fraudulent activity on their behalf. I wish I never had DirecTV service they are refusing return money so my bank.

I regretfully signed up for Direct TV service in February 2016 I was told my bill would be the same for 24 months. I just got my new bill to find out $42 worth of promotions had fallen off my bill. I guess it was the wonderful bait-and-switch great job Direct TV & AT&T. I Have 3 phone lines, TV service & ddigital life security with you. Looks like I'm going back to ADT, Comcast & T-Mobile. Gave you a chance to redeem yourselves. I wasn't asking for anything for free just what I was promised for 24 months. What did you offer me? Lol $ 15 a month and a chance to read the fine print in your misleading contract. Sorry I was raised say what you mean and mean what you say. And not to hide lies in the fine print and be misleading.

I have Directv since 2007. Only since the beginning of 2017, I am charged with a Regional Sports fee on top of the Sports Pack of $13.99.

I called three times about the charge and I was told that it is not fair to the other customers and this charge is supposed to level the field and make it fair to everybody. In my opinion, the premium channels costs should be all included into the $13.99 cost that was advertised on the website. There should not be an additional cost to the premium cost.

I believe that this practice is designed to nickel and dime the consumer. People that opt for other Premium channels do not have to pay additional fees on top of the premium charge.

I asked for the charge to be remove and to remove the regional sports since I am not watching them. I am only watching the national sport channel, BeInSports. For this channel, no region fee is needed.

I signed on to DIRECT TV in the last week of January. When I signed on, I was promised a $300 rebate card. She said to give it a week and then start checking. I did so and there was no information on it. I did several online chats with representatives and was promised that the card would be coming. Last week, 03/29/2017, I spoke to yet another representative. She told me that the reason there was no card is because I wasn't eligible for the $300. She said I was eligible for the $200. Give it a week and there would be information. So, I called today and was told that I was NEVER eligible to receive a card and that none was coming. He was so sorry for the 'misinformation.' I told him that it wasn't misinformation, it was a flat out lie that I was told no less than 5 times by every representative that I spoke to. I have been an ATT customer for years and my daughter even worked for them. I can't believe that they openly lied to me like this. What a horrible way to do business.

Iam only suppose to be getting charged 60 for my DirecTV and I'm being charged 82.29 and the sports package is suppose to be included in my plane. I was a new customer a d online it says I'll be charged 60.00 a month there saying my bill is 160.71 when my bill should only be 110.71. I also tried making a $60 payment and they denied it. I talked to monica from customer service and she said all I should owe is 110.71 and my bill after that will be 60.71 including tax each other month after I pay the 110.71. for feb-marcg my bill should be 50 and march-april it should be 60 not 82.28. please fix this as soon as possible thank you.

I called to cancel after 11 years of being a loyal customer, the reason why because I have been getting charged 4.25 to 5.00 every month(as far as I went 6months back)They charging me a federal cost recovery charge&a regional sports fee.Ive never been late I Waited 20 mins on the phone while listening to other ppl credut card info an details of other ppls calls until finally seen&hung upon with a women who said "who laid this down"when I finally got through again the lady was rude, unprofessional and I told her I've never been late on any of my bills an she said mam your bills was due 30th and we received it on the 8th..And I said well I can't help what happens when it leaves my hand don't I have like a 10 days grace period and she informed me that no one has a ten day grace period that they done away with that 2 years ago..Well after 11 years of sending you 129 an since you've charged me 5.00 prolly for 11 years for being 2 -5 days late.You can shove it and I will make complaint after complaint and I have my checks to what date was on every one of them THATS BS! Oh and while I was on the phone waiting and listening to everybody else's details of there package an their very important credit card info that was recorded you should really go back and listen..Its all there plain as day now I wonder how many has just set an listened while jotting down numbers?!..I WOULDNT RECOMMEND YOU ALL TO NOONE!In fact SHENTEL GAVE ME TV, INTERNET, and phone service 103 a month! HOW AWESOME IS THAT!JUST TO LET YOU KNOW IVE NEVER NOT PAID MY BILLS 11 yrs that I've been with Directtv not even close...;)

I made a payment this morning online and it said system error so i called and made payment on the automated phone center it said payment processed service will be restored. I waited a bit and nothing so i called back and the lady i spoke with tells me my payment was rejected by my bank so we called my bank and they inform me they have deducted the 212.36 from my bank account as soon as i submitted the payment and they even have a confirmation number they gave me where they sent it to directtv! i was on chat with a shaquana or something and she insinuates that im stupid and dont know how to use the online services, but keep in mind i use the online services every single month, i guess its possible that i went stipid this morning dealing with their very rude customer service! I WANT MY MONEY BACK NOW!

I received an email snapshot of what my bill was going to be in January. My bill was way too expensive so I called and reduced my package. I was told that the January bill would be approximately $107 plus tax and every month after would be $73 plus tax. It actually ended up being $117.76 because there was a disconnection fee of $10. Fine. I was enrolled in autopay at that time so of course DirecTV received the $117.76 from my account. February rolls around and there is now a balance due of $15.14. I call customer service and get someone from the Phillipines and explain my problem. They don't understand so I ask to speak to the supervisor. The supervisor was very polite and says he understands my problem and fixes. He gives me a $15.14 credit. I decide to remove myself from autopay at this time. Fine, whew, we finally got this resolved. Wrong! Received my bill for March and there is now a balance due of $16.87. I have called 3 days in a row trying to reach someone in the United States so there would be no language barrier. Not once did I!

I called on 3-13-17 and spoke with Leo to get a price on a bundle package. He quoted me $117.81. I called back again on 3-16-17 to have the services added that I didn't already have and Shay advised me of all the installation fees, I advised her that Leo never spoke of any installation fees when I called on 3-13-17. So I advised her to forget adding anything. I waited about 15 mins. called back and spoke with Porsche she advised me there would be no installation fees for anything. So I had her to add internet and home phone to my bill to get a bundle package. Total was going to be $117.81 a month. I told her that was fine, so she scheduled 2 work orders. 1 for internet and phone and 1 with Directv because I wanted to add a receiver to another room. Well today was the day for the installation to be done. Well this heffer never made a work order for the Directv to be installed in the other room. So here I am sitting with no tv to watch until Saturday. That is just bs. I went around the world for 3 hours trying to get to the bottom of what she did to my account. She needs more training to do her job right the first time. And when I do get my first bill and I have charges on there that shouldn't be on there...best believe I will be calling and blessing someone out. This is the worst customer service I have experienced with any company and I have been with Directv since 2010. Get your ### together and do your jobs correctly.
