Will Not Send Check For Refund
I cancelled my service with Direct TV April 30th, 2009. Found out in May they had not cancelled, so it was cancelled again. I was told by Direct TV in May 09 I was owed a refund of $73.35 which I would not receive until after Sept 4, 09 because it would take that long to process. Evidently Direct TV has no personnel which is trained to give refunds & it takes 6 to 8 weeks to train them. Just my opinion. Have called customer service & billing 6 times since Sept, each time I have been told my refund was being escalated higher up and I would receive my check within 10 days. It is now Nov 5th, I have just called Direct TV again and spoke with a Supervisor named Jacob and once again been told the same thing. It amazes me that each & every month I receive a statement from Direct TV showing they owe me the refund, but they can't send the check and be done with it. I believe now all customer service reps AND the entire billing dept. with Direct TV is trained by Direct TV to lie, put you off and then laugh their heads off when they get off the phone with you on how they just scamed you again. I also believe there must be something we can do as previous customers and consumers even if it means filing suit which will be a good bit more than what the refund owed, but now it has come down to the principal of thing. I realize Direct TV assumes if they put you off long enough you will give up. Where are the laws put in effect by the lawmakers of this country against such blatant, arrogant dis-repect for consumers by Direct TV?
IT IS TIME DIRECT TV BE TAKEN TO TASK IN A COURT OF LAW AND I FOR ONE HAVE THE DOCUMENTATION & RECORDINGS TO PROVE ALL I HAVE STATED.

extended contract
I called direct tv to get a HDTV converter box for my bedroom tv and the customer rep. instructed me to go to Best Buy to buy a box. So I went to purchase the box only to fine out later that night that the box was leased. When receiving my bill today to learn that they had extended my contract tried contacting Freddie u8612 and Chris @Corporate and they feel they didn't do any wrong but apoloized for me not being informed that I wasn't buying just leasing a box with a contract.

Unauthorized Withdrawal from checking
I had ordered Direct TV in June 2009, after doing some research on this company I found so many negative comments it made me very uneasy. I decided to cancel my order before installation took place. When I had placed my original order I had accidently selected a DVR box, then the web site froze. I called and cancelled the DVR box since it showed a 99.00 charge with minutes of ordering. I received a cancellation number. A few days later I notice a debit to my checking account for 107.66.
Over the next few months I have made 6 phone calls and get a different story every time. My last phone call resulted in them asking me to send a letter to Human Resource. I've yet to hear back from them and it's Nov. I am SO glad I cancelled their service before installation. I'll stick with my comcast which doesn't require you to be locked in, charge outrageous cancellation fee's and provides good customer service.
I think they just want to wear you down and hope you give up.

Over Charged
This is what I sent IMMEDIATELY to Directv when I realized I made an error in ordering on their website:
"Customer (Thomas Lower) - 11/01/2009 11:28 AM
I was trying to find programing information on the NFL Package and tried subscribed by mistake. I tried calling your 800 number to make sure I was not charged for this and i was not able to get though. I was put on hold, then hung up on twice. I do not want the package, I have not watched the package and I do not intend to pay for this package. Please do not charge me and please make sure I am not subscribed to the NFL package."
This was their response today:
"Response (Michael H ID U8397) - 11/02/2009 02:57 PM
Dear Mr. Lower,
Thanks for writing. I understand your concern about canceling the NFL SUNDAY TICKET and SuperFan and I can help. I have reviewed our information and see that sports subscriptions can’t be cancelled, transferred, refunded, or credited after the season starts. We have found that your account reflects the correct amount due. DIRECTV is unable to honor your request to remove the NFL SUNDAY TICKET sports packages.
Thank you again for writing and allowing us to respond to your concerns.
Sincerely,
Michael H. ID#U8397
DIRECTV Resolution Specialist"
Here is my response today:
"Another reason that I will not be renewing with your company. I have been a customer for over 3 years, I always pay on time and this one time I ask for something to be removed after I mistakenly subscribe, you cannot accommodate. I sent the email and called IMMEDIATELY after I mistakenly ordered the package. The way that you advertise the package shows it as $49.00, which is why I ordered, then realized that it is only one of four payments AND I couldn’t even watch the game I ordered for. Your company has scammed me and I cannot wait until I can stop doing business with you. Please check out my postings at ripoffreport.com and with the BBB. I am really disappointed with how you do business with a long standing client, pathetic. I will make sure that all my facebook friends and tweeter followers know about this poor client service as well. Like they say, good news travels fast, bad news travels faster. I am sure the damage to your brand will do far more harm to you than ripping me off for $200."

Raised Rate.
I moved from cable TV because of rate increases and explained this to direct tv...I explained to the associate that I was on permanent disability and on a very limited budget. He was all about getting into a plan that would fit my budget. I told him I needed a plan that was about $50.00 a month. He got me into a plan. Everything was fine for about six months. Then the plan jumped from $50.00 a month to $71.00! When you call they tell you that this was an introductory rate...The sales associate NEVER said anything about an introductory rate. Stay away from this business, they use misrepresentation and then trap you into a contract that you cannot afford! Then you are stuck paying the higher rate or the cost of the two year contract if you cancel. Heed my advise, they are a sham!!!

Overcharged
Direct TV is overcharging me as i see lots of others have also complained about. Customer service is nonexistent. They only want your money. I would like to get several of us together and consider filing a class action suit.
Anyone else want to pursue this?

customer service
THE WORST customer service ever! their outsourced non-english speaking consultants lied and convinced me we could get high speed internet through direct tv - WRONG! I didn't believe it was legit and began investigating the very next day. I was right - they didn't know what they were talking about. They billed me $39.95 for equipment AFTER i cancelled the service and then they really started a mess with at&t (their internet partner). They sent me equipment too -- and the customer service through wirefly is worse than direct tv (if that's possible)
i have been on hold with these idiots for over 20 minutes now - do not ever use them!!! GO TO DISH NETWORK - they all speak english and don't lie to you.

unauthorized bank draft
My acct was in suspend to I could get back on my feet financially. Someone at Direct TV made a mistake and deducted 712.01 from my bank account on 10/27/09. I am getting the run around to get my refund of money not owed to them. Have a family of 6, can't buy groceries or put gas in my car. They have blatantly lied and don't care about anyone.
