Actually I never provided a social security number and it was all done legit under my name and just a fictitious address, I actually had to pay a $300 fee for not providing a SSN but they allowed me to pay it $5 at a time per statement, so I was okay with it. I won’t try to avoid paying, I...

Yeah for sure that is what I plan to do, I mean it is on me, I can’t expect them to pay for this stuff from Canada and I’m just grateful I just have to send back one receiver. I asked them to remove the other receivers from my account since hey said I don’t need to send them in order to avoid...

I can use a parcel forwarding type of service but it’s a good 3 hours of driving combined, so more economical to just pay out of pocket

Yay, spoke to a 3rd agent for a 3rd time who said i only have to send back HR44 and not my older receiver, so at least the cost will be less for me

I’m sending back from Canada, I don’t have the prepaid boxes they ship out to the customer

That’s the difference, the box they send you has prepaid postage affixed to it, that won’t be my case.

They still want me to send back all my HR24s and cards, that would be so much easier if it was just my HR44. I explained the situation, no they can’t email prepaid labels, and they said to walk in a UPS store with my email and account # and it will be free, doesn’t make sense, and they specified...

I don’t want to over complicate things going that route, I’m an hour away from a US town, so it’s not an issue for returning them in the USA. Does anyone know if any of the following can be done: - I bring the the receivers to a USPS store for them to pack and return boxes using Directv...

So I have been a loyal subscriber for 10 years, but I just can’t do the $180/month anymore and it is hard to justify because the family doesn’t watch live tv anymore, it ends up being 95% Netflix. What is the best way to proceed with the cancelation and return of equipment? Will Directv insist...

Why lower my plan when I can negotiate a better price through retention, never hurts to try and always helps to learn a from the experience of others in regards to retention pricing.

You are correct on me being a long time user, almost going on 10 years. And yeah it sucks that HD Extra isn’t included. I was hoping for feedback from other people in a similar situation that were able to reduce their fees.

I’m paying a boat load for my Directv services, here is a copy of my charges, how much better could I realistically be doing with a retention type plan if I threaten to leave? Also, does anyone else have this credit showing up on your monthly bill? I just noticed it and I’m not a wireless...

What are the dimensions of the actual dish? I’m buying it off eBay, can you recommend a model please, including LNB. Had the LNB evolved since SWM with only 1 wire coming in to the house?

I’m trying to convince a friend to subscribe and they are concerned about dish size, what’s the current standard model available? Mine is a SWM SL5 from 9 years ago, what’s current today? And are there any differences?

I'm so out of it when it comes to blackout rules, what does that mean to me?
