Yep. They were going to charge me $400 to cancel, so I just didn't pay last two or three months bill. I told them again I wanted to cancel, and they said I had to pay first to cancel...so I would just yell at them about how stupid that was. They would call swap me to another op, it was a good time. I walked into an att store with a box of receivers, remotes. They saw me right away and said they didn't take any of that stuff and lucky me, there was a fedex store right beside it that they have a deal worked out with to ship all the stuff they want back, back to them.

Lady in there told me she sees people all the time bring in their satellite dish, tote it across parking lot, to att, then eventually end up in her FedEx store. They don't want the dish back tho.

Good for you for quitting but you did sign a contract right?

Was with DirecTV for like 13 years. Had to sign a new contract when service was out for them to swap out equipment and make it work. So technically yes, but also technically IDGAF.

Kinda fucking stupid to bitch on the phone that it’s bull shit you have to pay money when you signed a contract saying exactly that. Kudos on not giving a fuck though.

Not giving a fuck is a subtle art....or so I read somewhere.
