Since DirecTV has no stores of their own, even when AT&T owned them (they have sold off their share in DirecTV), that is considered a 3rd party payment (Moneygram, Precash, using your bank's bill pay option, etc.). So it can take up to 3 business days to post.
If you need your payment to post to the balance fairly soon (same day if nothing else), then log into your account on DirecTV's website and pay it. You've got internet access.
Over the phone with a live agent has a phone transaction fee (supposedly to encourage people to use self-help options instead of tying up a live person who could actually be helping someone else on something that isn't as basic as paying your bill).

It can take 2-3 days to post to your account. DTV doesn't have any stores.
