Scam and theft
Direct TV



My Direct TV reception has never functioned correctly at all. I called today to complain because I am fed up with the video pixelating and blanking out. The Agent wanted to charge me $49.00 for them to come out to my house and work on their equipment or they suggested I pay a monthly fee as insurance of $5.95 in case any service calls were required. This is crazy to me. It is all their equipment that they should be responsible for and I pay monthly a huge amount already. They do not tell you up front they are going to treat you this way. They won't tell you that they consider your "SERVICE" to be on an 18 Month contract and if you do cancel their "service" they will charge the prorate of $360.00 for that cancellation. In order to be open an honest about it all they would have to reveal is that they are just the biggest money-grubbers in the Business and that they do not care one iota about customers they have already trapped.
