Anyone else having trouble with DirecTV?

Ugh! They have billed me for the ST, but the channels aren't available! Their website it unbelieveable slow, and their phone lines are jacked up. Its a good thing the Bills game is on local TV in Central Florida, otherwise I'd be REALLY upset as opposed to mildly irked. Anyone else having similar issues, or is it just me?

Nope - seeing the games just fine. Sorry to hear about your frustration, but atleast you will be able to see the game that matters ...

They say that they will no longer send the sunday ticket to old receivers. You need to up grade to a newer receiver. Their lines are jamed. They said they'ed send me a new one for free. Lucky I also have a new one hooked up to another TV

Okay now I am worried. for now I am seeing the games just fine. But I will be seriously pi$$ed if I dont get to see the Bills game.

 

I'm guessing it could be a localized issue with some account provisioning. If you get the games now, hopefully you'll still be fine at 4PM. I'm sort of ok for today as the game will be on local TV, but suck not to see the other games now.

To paraphrase Adam Sandler - this is the kind of information that would have been helpful LAST WEEK!!!

No, it's a receiver upgrade issue. You will no longer be able to receive the sunday ticket over out dated receivers.

EXACTLY! this is total BS and they're going to be flooded with callers all day. I got it fine last week, why doesn't it work this week. All about more money for them.

Last week during the games I had a message on my old receiver upstairs that said that I'd need to upgrade to a new reciever for the following week of Sunday Ticket. We called and they sent us a new one by Thursday.

 

I wish I would have got the message. Better yet, why couldn't they just set up an automated phone call to all ST subscribers? This is not good for business for DTV...

I thought DIRECTV had incredible customer service, and never had any service issues...at least that is what I am told, here, over and over again... :thumbdown:

This is the first problem I've had in 15 years and they are sending me a new receicer for no charge. If you are having this problem make sure you talk to them to get the new receiver sent to you by next week.
