Price

I’m looking to watch the Tigers on Bally Sports Detroit but unfortunately Directv is the ONLY one who streams them and I’m not paying $80 a month for one channel I’m interested in, absolutely ridiculous. What other deals can you offer me, if not I guess I’m listening to them on the radio once again.

BEE SWARM in ATT Box in yard

Hi, I tried to call customer service but was given an agent whose first language was not English. He did not know what a bee was and eventually told me the only thing to do is call 911 which obviously is not the right answer. Anyway, could someone please reach out to me to get the bee swarm removed

What about just using a radio? Remember those?  Or do your dogs have to "see" Oprah every day?

Find a talk radio station.  Most dogs don't do a lot of watching and they would at least hear the sound of human voices.

Loud Cracking/Snapping Noise

I know this sounds crazy, but for the last month or so, when one commercial is ending and another one is beginning, there is a loud cracking noise.  Never encountered this before with U-Verse.  Anyone else experiencing this and any suggestions on how to get it fixed?  It's almost like a bug that nee

These big dogs wince when they lose one customer on one service. What will they do when hundreds of customers pull the ATT plug for all their services? They must have some deep pockets lined up to bail them out.

DIRECTV dropping OANN?

How could you bow down to the WOK cancel culture demands to dropping OANN? They do not lie!  The "big lie of the 2020 election" is absolutely true. There is mountains of evidence of the election steal. All the misinformation comes from liberals not conservatives!  My husband and I will be

Simple service request. Not a child.

Our dogs chewed the wires coming into the house and now our internet isn't working nor is our TV. We don't need to go through an automated diagnostic app to determine if our problem is hardware or software before we can actually make a request to get a technician to our house. We know the problem: w

Can the Screen Saver be deactivated or the time extended before it activates?

Is there any way to disable this bloody screen saver or extend the amount of "inactive time" before the thing self activates???? It makes me mental!!!!  If the press ok message popped up after 8-12 hours, it wouldn’t bother me as much... but it pops up for me after 2 hours of not touching my remote!

Hi Duckman25. We understand dogs are playful and can destroy things they usually find. We recommend replacing your remote with an RC7x model directly with us. Let's meet in a PM to help you with your inquiry. Erika, DIRECTV Community Specialist
