Shared on Sat, 10/04/2008 - 17:10I have been a loyal DirecTv customer for over 10 years.
That said I warn everyone to stay away from that company unless you have tons of money to piss away!
Don't get me wrong, thier programming is outstanding but, thier hardware, warranties, and cust service blows!
10 months ago I paid over $200 for a HD DVR from DirecTv. Now it takes over 10 sec. to change the channel or bring up the guide. After dealing with cust service making me reset my reciever numerous times they told me they would send me a new reciever for $99 plus $30 shipping. WTF? A piece of electronics that cost me over $200 is only under warranty for 3 months? Not to mention I had to sign a 2 year contract to get the reciever for $200 instead of the $400 they wanted to upgrade my existing service!
I have long been a supporter of DirecTv, but no longer, I am here to tell you to stay away from this evil corporation that only wants your money and nothing else.
I have two Xbox 360s, a piece of hardware known for failing. Say what you will about Microsoft but they took a one year warranty and extended it for 3 years! This is impressive in todays day and age. Microsoft has done many things wrong but, at least they stepped up to the plate when push came to shove! I only bring this up to say that more companies should take a lesson from them in this aspect and if I didn't say it earlier DirecTv sucks! Please, for your own good stay away!
