Scammers! Why weren’t we informed!
I was contacted yesterday by “att Directv” with a special offer to cut my bill in half. They had my name address phone number and bill amount. You had to pay 6 months in advance to get the promotion. I almost gave them my card number! When I called the real att directv they told me they were well aware of the scam! Correct me if I’m wrong but the company has all our email addresses and we were not informed, why? When my bill is late I receive an email!

@shannon02 Where's the pic of the warning that was broadcast to all DirecTV customers?

There was no warning that’s the problem!

The warning was on the TV using the built-in message option that DirecTV boxes have. Unfortunately, too many clear those without reading essentially treating it like junk mail.

I guess it's like getting a bill in the mail. Just because you didn't open it doesn't mean it wasn't due. ;-)

It’s funny how these “customers “ comment 27,000 on a forum. I’m sure you don’t work for directv 😂

Your implied sarcasm or such not withstanding, I do not work for DirecTV/AT&T. After getting help on the forum years ago, I started participating and sharing my the knowledge I have accumulated to try and help others. Sure I post a lot as it is part of my lifestyle now, but that still does not make me an employee.
Those who are actually employed will have the "employee", or something akin to "Associated member", but are posting on their personal time (off-the-clock). Only the officially logo'd ATTHelp team are in any official capacity.
