Directv
Leased receiver fee continued after purchase; unexpected two-year contract

I was in a contract with DirectV for 18 months, I decided that I will go for a HD package and the customer support asked me to buy a receiver from them at discounted price. I paid $250 for 1 receiver. They shipped it and I still went on paying leased receiver fee of $5 every month. I contacted them regarding the charge and they said it will be taken care off. And then I got a better service deal from DishTV. I opted for it. When I called up DirecTV to inform they said I was in contract for 2 years!!! And when I asked where is the written letter of intent or my signature to show that I agreed for a 2 year contract? They bluffed off and started to threaten me to complaint to credit bureau and put my credit into wrotten streets. And it seems they are going to do it further.
