How do I transfer my Dad's DirectTV account into my Name
My father passed away a few months back. I've managed to continue to pay the bill for this service. I need to formally either: 1. Transfer his account into my name or 2. Close out his account and open a new one in my name.
Thanks,
Danny

Sorry but you cannot. The only option DirecTV has is for the surviving spouse to take over an account. Outside of that there is no change of responsibility option so the account must be closed as you are not allowed to continue service under a deceased person's SSN.
So option 2 it is. Close account and open your own. Be prepared to submit paperwork (such as state certified Death Certificate) to close out the account.

Thanks for the comments. I have my Dad's death certificate and will close out his account and open my own. Thanks for the comments.

What models are the boxes on your Dad's account? That will determine if returnable or recyclable.
