| - Do NOT sign a two year contract with this company!
The original deal I signed up for, was $61 for the first year, $85 after that. I'm only 9 months into this contract, and they notified me that per contract they were increasing my monthly payment by $5/month.... So now I'm at $66 for a few more months, and then it'll jump to $90. Okay, that sucks, but whatever....
I woke up today to discover they had dropped comedy central, nickelodeon, and about a dozen other good channels. I called them to cancel service (TV without The Daily Show isn't really worth having) but was told that I'd be charged the $300 cancellation fee. I explained since they were no longer able to provide the channels that I signed up for, they should let me out of this contract.... but I was told the contract clearly states that programming may change.
So basically, if you sign up with Directv, you are agreeing to give them money, whatever amount they choose... and they agree to give you 250 channels of infomercials... or whatever channels they choose. By the time you realize you are being screwed, it will be too late to cancel without penalty, and you will be stuck for two years! Don't do it!
