Our household has lost an income source during the pandemic, I can't pay DirecTV bill so it got disconnected today (despite the claims that there will not be service disconnects during COVID).

" Link TV - channel 375"

Guide says content provider discontinued channel, NOT SO. Link is alive and well on Dish and Streaming but DTV is not disclosing the real truth behind killing the channel. Cant find any explanation on the web. Anyone?

Just wish they wouldn't have added "It is no longer available" Implying the channel has ceased programming when it is alive and well on Dish and Streaming. Thanks for all the replies. Great forum.

Regional Sports Fee

Why are you charging for the Regional Sports when there are no regional sports being televised. I would like a refund of the $9.99 x 2 for the months of April and May. I (we ... your customers) should not have been charged for that service during those months since you could not deliver that service

When are you going to resolve the problem with TEGNA?

When are you going to resolve the problem with TEGNA? It's disrupting my service in watching WFSS (channel 8 - ABC) in my area.  Customers should not have to deal with the petty problems between Uverse and TEGNA.  Work it out or lose a long time subscriber.

Power Outage Question

My U-verse voice and Internet system survived a 13-hour power outage very well. The backup battery unit kept my Gateway lit during the entire outage. My two wireless phones were out of commission during the outage. But I was surprised that my hardwired phone was operational during the outage.  Since

Obviously you havent looked at any "u-verse compression" posts on google.com and seem to be in a bit of denial here. 6 megs is the most a stream can get for U-Verse. Why else would you be on a 25 meg profile and only get 3 HD streams/1 SD. Thats 18 m

Picture quality with 55" LED Samsung

I've got the U450 tv package and love the service, been here a while but the picture quality on my 55" tv just doesn't look good. Over the years, I've heard people say that the HD image is not near as good as other providers and it could be from the way Att compresses the signal to other things but

Thanks for the reply. That would be great if I didn't have to add all my program schedules back to the DVR but I believe the customer service lady told me it would be a brand new DVR and everything would be wiped clean.....but would love for all my p

Doing a reply to my own post is a bit tacky agreed, but do any of you old timers remember in 2007 when Uverse did that nation wide system upgrade and blew the whole system up for 3 days? I always wondered what happened to the person who did that? Gue
