Over charged
Last year we decide to get the NFL package.It was for two years and the cost was two hundred and sixty nine dollars total.The first year was fine we paid sixty four dollars for four months and this year we have paid six hundred dollars for four month so we contacted them and they said that they didn't understand why we were over charged, and they wouldn't do anything about it so we canceled and now they want to charge us two hundred and eighty dollars.I feel that this was not part of the deal.

unauthorized charges
please please do not give this company your bank credit card or any other kind of debit info they will rip you off in a hot second .i made a payment (1x) for my daughter and when she closed her account they took the charges out of my bank why because according to their so called CUSTOMER POLICY they have the right to charge any card they have on file.this is what they told me. I ARGUED with a rep not 1x but 5 x's that I DID NOT AUTHORIZE THE PAYMENT. and that he should have told me when i made the payment that this card could be used again if they had said that i would have stopped the payment right then and there. now i am into direct tv for 307. plus 72.00 for nsf funds caused by ther STUPID AZZ BS.there comments was sorry mam but that's customer policy
CUSTOMER POLICY... I AM NOT A CUSTOMER NOR WILL I EVER BE ONE.

Unauthorized billing
I was a long time customer of Direct TV 4-6 years. About 2 years ago I had Direct TV installed at my mothers house for Christmas. Earlier this year, my mother took over the account and put it in their name and address. On 12/20/08 338.00 was withdrawn from my checking account unauthorized, and unlawfully, which as of today as so far resulted in 125.00 in overdraft/courtesy pay fees from my bank as my paid bills are rolling in with no funds in the account.
When I called today to find out what was going on, they said that my mother owed them money, and that they were allowed to withdraw that amount from me as they had my old account information on file. I told them I did not even have an account anymore, and it was in my mothers name and address, they said they should have never changed it over to her and that they, (thank goodness I used print screen and have the account information before the changed it) they had neglected to cancel my account, they then today put it back in my name!! I was not even given over to a supervisor upon request. After a google search I found out that this is happening to a lot of people, I am now seeking counsel and looking for any class action suit that may be out there. I am now out over $450.00 and climbing.

Authorized service for someone who cant speak english
I own a home. I had a korean woman, Ki, staying with me for a short amount of time who could barely speak English. Well, Ki decided she wanted TV and ordered Direct TV. Somehow, she signed a contract and when I get home I have a sattelite dish and Direct TV service.
I go to cancel the service... Well Direct TV waited 10 days to cancel and then they charge Ki (who is an American Citizen but barely able to speak English) a 400 cancellation fee.
So I call... they tell me Ki has authorization to get Direct Tv at my home. And even though Ki cannot speak English and does not own MY home nor is on MY mortgage, that she signed a valid contract.
So Direct TV installed a dish illegally at MY HOUSE, signed up service with a woman who CANNOT speak ENGLISH and now will not return the cancellation fee.
Way to go Direct TV. I am trying to get this on the local news. Hopefully, I will be successful.

cancellation fee
I recently had to disconnect my direct tv because there was a fire in the building and the owner of the building told me i had to remove the dish because of fire hazzards.when i cancelled i recieved a $220 cancellation fee.They told me that since i replaced a faulty dvr reciever a year ago i still had a year left on my contract.I was never informed of my contract being extended when i called to replace the reciever and i wrote to the complaint department and when i didn, t hear from them i called direct tv.They told me the dispute department informed them that the cancellation charge was valid and that i had to pay the $220 dollars.I believe it is unfair to penalize somebody for a faulty dvr reciever and also when the owner themselves asked you to remove the dish.

No customer service
Do not use Direct TV, they give you a contract without ever telling you that there is one. I have canceled my service as it was not good and my verizon service was not working as well. Direct TV charges a ridiculous amount of money to cancel. I have contacted them a number of times and they never call back when they say they will & they won't give you a manager to talk to, or a number to call. I had to search the website to try to find someone else in the company to contact.
Their service is not worth it, it's a big ripoff!

Unprofessional, and unwilling to resolve disputes
I tried to resolve a dispute on 01/17/09 and was on the phone for over one hour, when a supervisor named Brian or Brandon, got on the phone accused me of swearing and hung up on me. The dispute has not been resolved and they are charging me for PPV charges that they claim that I incurred in November of 2007. I plan to take legal action, instead of crossing my fingers and allowing them to ruin my credit. Truly, this is a company that is ripping off their customers and the BBB needs to get involved. If anything, hopefully people will do some reasearch and listen to customer complaints. I wish I had.
