As long as your bill is paid in full (posted to the account) before your service month starts over then there is no late fee. Per DirecTV's billing model, the bill has been due day 20 of your service month.

For example:

Service month January 5 thru Feb 4.

Bill due January 25.

Payments posts to the account no later than Feb 4, no late fee.

But if payment posts Feb 5 or later, then there is a late fee.

So they have had a built-in grace period to account for any delays with old fashion method of mailing payment, or if there is an issue with the payment received so gives time to address the problem before it is fully late.
