News flash to the Risk Managers at Direct TV - Your service provider for installations is the biggest risk to your ability to continue as a viable competitive company. I waited six weeks for this mornings appointment to upgrade my equipment for the new HD compatible channels. When I made the appointment I called the service provider and asked to be called if an earlier appointment opened up. They did call two weeks before this mornings appointment and left a brief message asking me to call them. I did call them back, but after waiting over 30 minutes for an agent to talk to I hung up and resigned myself to the fact that I would have to wait until my original appointment. Appointment day comes and no Halstead Communications, so when I called, they told me because they called me three times (a big lie) and I didn't get back to them (because it takes them 30 minutes to answer the phone) that they canceled my appointment. Their message contained to indication of cancellation and I received no notice of the cancellation. After a lengthy call with Direct TV, the best they could do was give an appointment another six weeks later. This company does not deserve to be in business and better wake up and fire Halstead Communications.
