For the last few years I was a Direct TV subscriber and really liked the service and programming. In August I had to relocate to a different state, and the apartment complex did not allow the dish, so I called, cancelled my service and sold the receiver box.
One month later, in September, I received the usual bill for the monthly service. The bill was paid directly out of my checking account. I called Direct TV and was told the error would be corrected.
One month later, in October, I received the usual bill for the monthly service. The bill was paid directly out of my checking account. I called Direct TV AGAIN and was told the error would be corrected.
It happened again the following month and every month since. I contacted my bank to stop payment and to end the automatic bill paying for Direct TV. The bank explained that there was a charge for stopping payment, and that if the bank declined any future charges, Direct TV could treat it like a bad check, which could hurt my credit and become very expensive. The bank suggested that I end my service with Direct TV, like I hadn't tried that!
Direct TV owes me for 8 months of service so far. Does anyone know how I can end my service with these people without putting my credit at risk?
