I entered into a two agreement with DirectTV ad after 20 months, the DVR became defective and needed to be replaced. DirectTV sent a replacement. After a total of 27 months I canceled my service and got charged over $204 for an early termination.

DIrectTV automatically renewed my contract when they replaced the DVR previously. They never notified me of the extension or requested my approval.

Maintenance service is not included in their contract commitment and must be purchased separately.

Because of their inability to comply with their original contract term of two years, I was being charged a penalty.

They also have an endless supply of "Supervisors" to read a script that this is their corporate policy.

BUYER BEWARE. D|O NOT DO BUSINESS WITH DIRECT TV.

Even after 12 years, an additional 

fee for early termination. Just try to return the inferior DVR they pass off 

for TIVO. Pay the $145. or go to collections. Pittiful, and they still send promotional advertisements offering $50. for each new sucker you will betray.
