~Bill Wallen's review of DirecTV customer service

GetHuman: So how would you sum up your experience for GetHuman's DirecTV customer community? We'll censor any IDs, numbers, or codes and any inappropriate words here out of respect to the millions of other customers using this resource.
~Bill Wallen: Being totally dissatisfied with the Genie and the Minis, I requested a switch of equipment, for the second time. I was talked out of it the first time. I was told that there would be a charge in excess of $*** to replace poor performing inferior equipment that was initially provided by you as an "upgrade", whatever happened to providing satisfactory service and standing behind your product?
GetHuman: Let's quantify your experience contacting DirecTV. On a scale of 1 to 5, how easy is it go get help on a DirecTV problem?
~Bill Wallen: I'd give them a four out of five for ease of finding your way to help.

~Bill Wallen: I'd give them a three out of five on communication.
GetHuman: And what about DirecTV's ability to quickly and effectively address your problem?
~Bill Wallen: For that I would say four out of five.
GetHuman: And finally- any advice for other DirecTV customers?
