Direct TV

I switched from cable to Direct TV. First this requires patience second this requires tolerance of stupidity I have neither of those qualities so it was a long day. let me start at the beginning. I called up Direct TV to see about saving some money. It is cheaper than cable. I talked to a woman who I advised her I wanted to switch but I needed to have the network channels, she advised me they could not do it without sending a waiver. OK no thank you I said and everyone was happy. 2 days later I get a call from of course Direct TV asking me if I was still interested, I said I was but I want all the network channels with no waiver if they could not do that don't bother. So she said they could no problems I am sure she was getting sick of me because I kept asking "are you sure I get all the network channels" she said for the umpteenth time yes. SO ok come and install it. A few days later the tech shows up with out all the equipment I advised him I am supposed to have all this stuff HD, DVR etc. he says it not on his work order and makes a few phone calls they agree to go ahead and put it in ( I should have seen the problems coming right then) So about 4 hours later he has installed a huge CD dish and put in all the receivers. gets everything in line turns it on and nothing just a message saying programming needed. He asks me if I had asked for any programming, I informed him of what was requested ( I should say I picked there best and most expensive package) well they have no record of this, I am also told that they cannot give me the network channels as promised and there is nothing there that says it so I can have CBS and NBC and that is it. I think about it a bit argue with the lady and they finally submit to 2 years of NFL season pass so I say OK and agree they submit the waivers and we move on. As we are checking out the channels I tell her several times NBC HD is not working she says it may an hour or so. So yup you guessed it I waited a few days and called I was informed they have to submit a waiver for that channel. I asked to speak to a manager or supervisor was put on hold and then told no supervisors would pick up and to leave my number that they would call me back. No call back in 2 days. So needless to say I am pissed. I am stuck with this contract for 2 years and get nothing but lies. I will update you as this goes on.

If I can't get back on here I want to wish everyone the Happiest of Thanksgivings

Be safe
