Directv $360 Scam for all channels and HD DVR California, Nationwide

WHEN YOU ORDER DIRECTV, BE PREPARED FOR ONE THING...

and just wait until you see your monthly bills....
(no matter what deal you were promised...they will tell you the credit will appear on your account in the next 1-24 months, may be split up into monthly amounts...and other BS).

NO ONE STOLE YOUR MAIL. YOU GOT SCREWED BY DIRECTV !!!

It seems very likely that somebody stole a DirecTV bill from your mail and this is how they had your name and address. Your DirecTV account number is also on the DirecTV bill. The mail thief simply pretended that he/she was DirecTV and called you. They had you wire money to them. They then used your account number from the stolen bill and then called DirecTV pretending to be you saying you wanted to upgrade to the main package. You need to file a police report and you may want to consider booby trapping your mailbox or pointing a hidden security camera or something at it.

         I get stuff in the mail all the time. Companies wanting to sell me customer lists. Those who still have good credit and could pass the credit check. I personally wont buy into that. For the right price I bet I could go online and buy your info. 

          The dealer prebuilt the account before they came out to install the system. Then fed you a buch of lies. If it had  been a honest dealer . Then they should have left you a signed copy of the contract. 

         I'm no longer a Directv Dealer. But most of the ads I see on tv say free equipment free install. Even Dish Networks  Business rules says free equipment , free install and free DVR. Now Dish Net does have upgrade fee's for existing customers and if a new customer wants more than one of the same model receiver. But the promotions will change from time to time.  Its best to call around to several Dealers to see if you get the same story.  Not to settle for the first song and dance that comes along. 

         If I were you I would report this to the Police, BBB, your state attorney general office and you local tv station that might have an Consumer's Right Segment. 

         Directv got busted in December 2010 by all 50 state attorney generals offices. They settled the lawsuit for around 14 million. Call you state attorney generals office to see what complaints were against them. I would also ask them if Directv has to make things right for you . If one of their Dealers screws up.

         The dealer wont be doing this much longer . They dealer will get charged back for the install and maybe even for the equipment.   They will find a bunch of consumers to do this to and then go out of business. Before they get charged back big time by Directv. 

         It's people like that who give the rest of us a name. If you gave this company any personal information IE: bank account, credit card number and you SSN. I would keep an eye on your credit report. Whos knows what these individuals are capable of.
