Poor service

I have being a Direct TV customer for more than 10 years ,recently i have being experiencing some technical difficulties(771)with no bad weather and a tech was schedule 

Day 1 tech said there was no one home because there wasn't  any cars in the driveway .

Day 2 same exact story no cars in the driveway ,does every Direct TV customer  with a drive own a car? door bells!!!!

Day 3 my appointment was cancel by the local office with no explanation,tech support told me i will receive a call from the local in half an hour its being over an hour .

 Direct tv doesn't care  about their customers .

Hello optimum !!!

You are right AT&T / DirectV does not care. 16+ year customer (Internet, Wireless, TV) and got an upgrade on 9/9 and has not worked like previous equipment did since then. 9 Tech support calls, 2 tech appointments, which one they did not even show up. Was given 2 escalated ticket numbers, one was suppose to correct issue in 12-24 hours, one week later got another that said 5-7 days. After 10 days called again and now they are replacing receiver. Every time, got a different information for each one. At least the last tech support person set up a receiver change.
