worst ever experience
I called your company for a quote. I talked to a young man and told him all i wanted was to find out what it would cost me if I switched from cox. H talked very fast and I told him I did not want to make a decision until I spoke with my husband. He asked me for my social security number to see what I qualified for. Then he asked for my bank card number stating that he needed me to set up the install. Again I stated I only wanted a quote but felt pressured that I needed to give him my bank card number. I told him I did not want anything coming out of my account and he said it wouldn't. He read some disclosures real fast and I wasn't sure what I was agreeing with but he did say he would email me all that we talked about. I went to my computer and pulled up my bank account and there was a charge taken out from your company. I told him this and said I stated to him I didn't want anything coming out of my account and he stated I agreed to it with the disclosure he read to me. Then He set up an install date and I asked him if I did not want the service who do I call. He stated I was just suppose to tell the man who came to install I didn't want it. He switched me over to the internet side and that young man wanted my social swecurity and bank account number. I refused and asked for a supervisor. He began to argue with me for some 5 minutes but finally relented and I got a supervisor who stated nothing was done wrong when I explained my position. I called direct tv back and got a young lady and told her I wanted to cancel the order and wanted my money back. She stated they would have to listen to the tape of the recording with the first young man I talked to and then I might get my money back. She then tried to convince me to stay and I had to forcibly tell her I wanted it canceled. She then said I would get my money back in 3 to 5 days. I have never dealt with such horrible customer service in my life. I work for the department of revenue here in Arizona and we work closely with the Attorney Generals office. I would like a copy of the tapes to see if there is criminal charges I can press and you can be sure the better business burea is going to hear about this. I would not use your company now if yours was the last company to work with. I'd stop watching tv.
