Direct TV
Hidden Yearly Contract and $125 Fee Over Unwanted Dish

I too have been an intended victim of Direct TV's manipulative, lying, forceful, bait and switch tactics. They deliberately hide contractual information from unknowing and unsuspecting individuals, they offer products that never materialize, and they advertise directly that there are no start-up costs or equipment to buy. And if you try to cancel because you did not know that they had entered you into a yearly contract, they demand a $125.00 early termination fee, which they say is to pay for the cost of the dish they installed.

What? Didn't you say no equipment to buy? Try to get rid of the dish and they will not take it; they tell you that you own it now. But wait, I didn't want your dish. Too bad, it's yours, and we will extort the $125.00 out of you for it, so they think.

I received their services through a bundle offered by my phone company and never was told that I would be entering into a yearly contract with them. If you get their receiver, even for a day, and you find out this info, and you do not activate it, they charge you a $150.00 penalty. Greed.

Any lawyers out there willing to take them on in a class action lawsuit? There are lots of us waiting for justice.
