Direct tv and att separating
To whom it may concern my name is (edited per community guidelines). I have been a loyal customer with AT&T and DIRECTV for 15 years now I was under the impression that I was grandfathered in because I was told that multiple times by multiple reps and that I would have HBO for free for the rest of my life And ever since now being told that I’ve been paying $15 a month and I’ve trusted them enough that I just pay my bill over the phone. I would like somebody corporate to contact me. The reps were very helpful and respectful, but they can only do so much and go back and credit me three months and only can see back six months and I would like to speak to someone corporate about getting refunded back as long as I’ve been paying this please if you can, please contact me that be great
sincerely,
(edited per community guidelines)

The only way to contact corporate is to file a BBB complaint. Not sure what you are saying, all grandfathered means is you have a channel package that is no longer available to new customers and AFAIK no channel packages include HBO for free. This is a customer to customer forum so no one will contact you unless DTV help sends you a PM/DM

Hi, @Megryan500. Thanks for reaching out. In August 2021, DIRECTV became a separate company from AT&T. You can read more information about our separation here: https://www.directv.com/insider/directv-becomes-a-standalone-video-business-following-an-agreement-between-att-and-tpg-capital/ Let's meet in DM to check your account further and discuss everything else. Jonathan, DIRECTV Community Specialist

Thank you for everyone’s suggestions. I will go to the BBB. I still feel DIRECTV should make this right. I have had DIRECTV for 15 years and everytime I had a increase in my bill I would call and they would tell me it’s not HBO causing it as when you signed up it was included free in your package. Management at DIRECTV should handle this in my opinion. Especially for what I pay a month for basic channels.

Since 99% of the programming on HBO is terrible I wouldn't get too wound up. I would much prefer to have Turner Classic Movies.

I agree they are not worth it. I just want my money they have been charging me for it.
