Directv
Sadly Scammed - Fraud / Bait and Switch

Do not trust Direct TV.

I signed up for direct TV slightly over 2 months ago. I'm a busy person and I missed the notice that I needed to sign in for the rebate. When I went to do so, I was told that it was over, that I would be paying twice as much and that I had a two year contract that they would uphold at that price.

I've missed this by 5 days. If this company wanted my good will, they could honor my rebate. Or let me out since the price I signed for is not the price I will be paying. They told me that was not a possibility and that they would charge me $ 450 to get out of my contract with them.

These are practices I haven't seen since the early eighies with phone companies. I was not paying attention, and therefor evidently I'm stuck.

Whenever a company offers a price where you have to go through hoops to get that price, then you know they're predatory. They're expecting people not to read. I wish I had any hope that they would fix this. I suspect it's exactly what they had in mind.
