Original Comment My daughter is a full time college student. One of the reasons I got her Direct TV is so she could be set up with the internet to do online classes. She was moving on 7/15/13. She called Direct TV on 7/12/13 to request they discontinue service on "7/15/13" thinking she was giving them advance notice of the discontinuation. Well, they discontinued her service right then and she had an online exam scheduled later in the day on 7/12/13 so she called them back and said they should not have turned it off on the 12th that she requested the 15th. They turned it back on on the 12th and then, unknown to us, implemented a contract for another year of service (was previously going monthly as it was past the original contract expiration date)and we now have to pay for another year and at a higer monthly rate. Called after getting a bill and was told what they did and now have to pay an extremly large fee to discontinue service because of the new contract they implemented without our knowledge plus one month of service since a month has passed now since the date they were to discontinue the service. I had the charges directly billed to a credit card so I will dispute the charges through my credit card company at this point. Come on now!!!! What kind of business practices are these.
