Direct TV
Small Print Two Year Contract Found After Qwest Bundle Cancelled

TV & Radio

I signed with Qwest for a bundled tv, Internet, and direct tv package a year ago. Now having money problems, I needed to cancel most of this. With Qwest all went well. When I tried to cancel with direct tv they informed me that I had a 2 year contract. I explained to them that I had bundled through Qwest and didn't have a 2 year contract. They informed me that Qwest doesn't but they have one. I said I set it all up through Qwest. Their reply was that when the technician installed the direct tv and I signed for it, there was in small print a paragraph about 2 year contract. Is this shady or what? Can't afford my bills now and they are telling me that I owe an early disconnect fee. I have looked through my paper work and don't show a copy of any of this. Why can't legit companies be up front anymore? Wish we could go back to the old antenna programming. Where I live we cannot get any tv without satellite. Not even cable.
