It took DAYS and numerous tries for me to finally get a live person. I only found the"pissed off consumer"site by accident and figured since I tried everything else, why not try this. It worked, FINALLY.

Can’t sign in

Updated by user Oct 21, 2025

Forgot it if you are using OS 26,01. The system is incompatible with Direct TV Streaming. Obviously, Direct TV doesn’t give a hoot.

Original review Oct 06, 2025

I have a subscription for directvstreaming. It works fine on our Samsung TV, but the app will not open on my iPhone 16.

Ask, are you sure before completely charging the purchase if you can't be reached to cancel? There was no way I could stop the purchase.

Bill increases

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I called the 800 number and went round and round and round for a half hour. Never got to talk to anybody!

I'm going to cancel my DIRECTV if somebody doesn't call me.

In fact, I cancel already. If I could get through to somebody, I guess I'll just have to stop payment.
