Additional Communication Between Claimant and Directv Hide
  • Sep 23, 2014, () added:
  • Thank you for contacting DIRECTV through PeopleClaim. I must explain that PeopleClaim is not connected to our Customer Service. This is only a third party site that allows you to post your complaint online. We do monitor this web site as a courtesy as we do try to assist our customers as much as possible. As this is a third party site, we do not suggest posting your personal account information.

    The DIRECTV Programming Agreement is for the activation of leased equipment. It does not guarantee prices or services will not change. The bundled offers are for an additional discount on our services if you have an approved providers. DIRECTV is still a separate company at this time and we do not control AT&T's prices of services. The new customer rebate offer is a staggered offer. The first 12 months you receive a $30 rebate offer, but changes to a $10 offer the second year. I do see that we activated an additional $15 discount for the second year and this credit is applying to your account. When I reviewed these offers, I noticed that you are no longer on automatic payment. The $10 discount on the Advanced Receiver services does require the account to be on automatic payment for this discount to apply. As this is not how payments are set up on the account, this credit cannot be applied through the system. You are still getting the remaining $25.00 total discount on your services.

    The cost of your DIRECTV services are correct with the offers and services you have active on your account. We do not have the option to manually adjust services and can only apply the offers listed on the account through our systems.

    I am sorry for the misunderstanding with our offer. I have sent you a copy of the confirmation letter we sent to you regarding the offer you received. You can see that only months 1 to 12 are marked with the $30 offer on this confirmation letter. You can also see the $5.00 discount you were receiving was for the first 12 months as well. This also includes the notice that the $10 discount for 24 months on the Advanced Receiver services requires automatic payment. I also see that your estimated amount on the confirmation letter did not include MEXICO PLUS nor the monthly cost of the DIRECTV Protection Plan. This would also add to the expected amount of your services by $15.98 plus taxes (each of these service is $7.99).

    In August, when the additional offers were added, I see you used these credit for the current balance on the account. DIRECTV bills for services in advance, so when promotional credits are activated, the are designed to be used for the upcoming statement, not a current balance on the account. The credits can only be applied once in a billing cycle and is controlled by our account system.

    The current balance on your account is correct for the services and offers active on your account.

    Thank you,

    Rebecca
