Direct T.V is aweful. Get this,
Back in August a friend of mine needed me to pay a bill with my credit/debit card. I don't believe that it is fair that I am penalized for the equipment/bill not being returned when I am not on the account. I was only trying to help a friend that was in need . She called DirectTV to come a pick up the equipment, which is boxed up and ready to go, but was told to hold it because a technician has to come out and remove the satellite, for it is expensive equipment. Checks are bouncing and I have loads of overdraft fees. I never thought that I would have to endure something like this, this is one of the worse days of my life. I asked them to please return my money and take up this matter with the person who is actually on the account.

Call your bank and have them issue you a chargeback. Since you didn't authorize the charge, having never agreed to the DTV terms and conditions yourself, you should have no problem getting the bank to give you back your money.

You provided an authorized form of payment. The vendor is allowed to obtain payment for the account from authorized forms of payment.

STFU YOU NIGGER! ALL OF YOU NIGGERS AND SPICS EXPECT THE WORLD TO GIVE YOU SOMETHING. YOU LIVE OFF THE GOVERNMENT ANY CHANCE YOU CAN. BOTH RACES JUST KEEP HAVING BABIES JUST TO GET MORE MONEY. I HATE WHEN I SEE WHEN YOU PEOPLE PULL OUT YOUR WELFARE CARDS AND WON'T GET OFF YOUR LAZY ASSES TO GET A JOB. YOU SELL DRUGS, RAPE WOMEN, HAVE SHACKS THAT ARE AN EYE SORE WITH YOUR TRASH LAYING EVERYWHERE. YOU PEOPLE COMMIT THE WORST CRIMES AND THEN YELL IN PRISON ABOUT NOT HAVING YOUR RIGHTS. I WISH ALL YOU PEOPLE WOULD GO BACK TO YOUR OWN COUNTRIES AND LEAVE US WHITIES ALONE! YOU NIGGER! YOU NIGGERS WALK AROUND LOOKING LIKE THE APES THAT YOU ARE. THE WOMEN HAVE BIG ASSES AND ALL OF THEM WALK AROUND WITH PANTS SO TIGHT THAT THEIR CAMEL TOES ARE SHOWING. DO YOU REALLY THINKS WE SHOULD HAVE TO LOOK AT THAT?

This happened to me a couple of years ago, luckily my credit union alerted me what was going on. Funds were still deducted from my bank account, but I filed a dispute and the money was put back into my account. I am enjoying Netflix now, no hassle, no highway robbery fees, and only $7.99 a month, Well at least for now, but it beats paying what the other companies are charging. Here is the deal, if they disconnect your satellite service, then they should send you the final bill, etc. Not rob money from your account.

Tika - there was a recent post very similar to this and the OP got her money back from the cable company. Good luck.

"Not relevant and bad advice Thud." - The Fact Police (ironic name by the way)

Not relevant? Explain how it's not.

I think it is and it is terrific advice because that is the only way she is going to get her money back. She is not a customer of DirecTV. She didn't agree to anything with them. She never gave them permission to take any past due bills out of her account only DirecTV customers agree to that. Since she didn't authorize DirecTV in any way, to take her friend's past due balance out of her account, she is entitled to a chargeback.

I've read many DirecTV complaints and helped many people retrieve their stolen funds. You are out of your league here, kid.

Hmmm Fact Police, if her bank also agrees with me, I guess that would be proof positive you don't know what the hell you're talking about. You may want to change your name to The Incorrect Troll.

Don't worry about him Thud, The Fact Police is anything but. He's just an arrogant kid who thinks he knows everything, even when shown proof that he's wrong.

I'm sorry to those who read my rant on this posting. It was intended for someone else on another post who posted something about me.
