DirecTV ScamHave you received credit cards bill without approval and is your account debited with any early cancellation fee? Then you may be sure that DirecTV has unnecessarily charged you. The provider has goofed up things with its faulty billing system. You may have terminated the contract before the end of its termination date, and so the satellite TV provider may have added credits to bill without authorization.

And if you try to call up the customer care representative for clarification on modified monthly charges or added fees, you will never be satisfied with the answers. Besides, the company doesn’t even bothers to mail you the billing details. Suppose, if anyone else paid the account on your behalf, then he will be charged with the early cancellation fee, in case, you have cancelled your credit card or closed your checking account.

No, you are not the only one who has been deceived by the company; there are many who are facing worst situations with this provider. It has been proved by in depth researches that DirecTV has been indulging into unethical means of trade for long and has continuously cheated its subscribers with deceptive advertising, marketing strategies, faulty billing system, early termination fee, hidden fees, charges and misleading offers.

The Better Business Bureau revealed that over the last 3 years, it had received about 39000 complaints against DirecTV. Therefore, the Attorney Generals have settled this dispute with the satellite TV provider by ordering it to pay whopping $13.25 to all those subscribers who have been wrongly attracted into this goof up since 2007 and to pay $185, 000 to the 50 states of America.

You have time until June9, 2011 to file a petition against DirecTV if you think you have been cheated by the provider. File a suit and get the word out to everyone in the nation, who may be considering to sign with this company for satellite TV connection. At least, this will help consumers to know in advance how companies like DirecTV intend to conduct business.
