Direct Tv Satellite
Unexpected monthly charges and cancellation fee on satellite service

Shops, Products, Services

We signed up for the monthly 29.99 Direct tv Satellite Television service. They told me they needed a card number to start the service, so being trusting I gave it to them. I told them I wanted the bill sent to me in the mail, so I could pay how I wanted, they said ok. They charged me 199.00 to set up the service.
The installers showed up and told me they had to have 199.00 to install the dish. This was really upsetting. Why didn't dish tell me this, this was a total scam. I paid it, I was really mad.
Then dish started charging the account 139.99 dollars a month. This went on for 10 months. They charge my account $400.00 to turn off our account, this is a ripoff also! Paying to cancel bad service, they lie about the price, they do not tell you about a contact for 2 years, they take access to your account, and then because their fee for bad service is a ripoff
The tv satellite service was bad, their dvr box would download a new program and the tv would be blue for days or weeks at times. Calling Direct Tv did not help at all, I took pictures of this blue screen. I didn't get any credit back for weeks without tv.
If there is a lawsuit against this company I need to join it. Why are these companies charging our accounts without permission? Signing us up for contracts without telling us. This is all fraud.
