Please stop showing Pickleball on the Tennis channel

I've subscribed to watch tennis on the tennis channel 217 and not Pickleball.  Please stop showing the Pickleball games on that channel and show tennis only.  The play time for Pickleball has been growing lately and that's not what I subscribed and have been paying for.   DirecTV - You're misleading your customers.   You should have renamed the channel to Tennis/Pickleball instead!

DIRECTV has no control over the Guide information or what is being broadcasted. They simply deliver the content and have no say in what airs and what doesn’t. Also, we are customers just line you on a public forum. If you have a problem with content on the Tennis Channel, you will need to complain to the Tennis Channel.

Reality check: The TV provider (DirecTV) has no say in what programming a channel chooses to show. The Tennis channel includes Pickleball under their programming. If you have an issue countact the network itself.

DirecTV provides you the channel. They are not involved in deciding what shows on it. This is the same as any other provider.

Bottom line: DirecTV does not own The Tennis channel. They cannot change the name or programming.
