I cancelled my services early with directv. I received a letter saying I owed them $420. I gave them a call on Tuesday March 22 and talked to a customer service representative. They were trying to charge me for a receiver that I didn't have. I explained the situation to her and she told me that I only owed $180. I said ok and I would like a statement reflecting this and I would make a payment after I recieved the statement. I never received the statement and then on Friday March 27 they just took $420 out of my checking account which cleaned my checking account out. I had no money for anything. This put me in a financial hardship! I called them back on Saturday 28 march and they told me I would have to wait 6 to 8 weeks to get my money back. I have emailed them 3 times and they keep telling me the same thing, 6 to 8 weeks! How can they take more than I owe them out of my account and then I have to suffer for 6 to 8 weeks to get my money back when it was their mistake, not mine. This is ridiculous!!! They can 'TAKE THE MONEY FROM MY ACCOUNT' in a minute??? They should 'PUT THE MONEY BACK IN MY ACCOUNT' in a minute??? How can these companies play with your money and life with no repurcussions?
