~SarahMae'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.
~SarahMae: It took * minutes to get to a live human being. The "state your phone number*account number*problem" system was a little annoying but after that the process went well. It took about ** minutes to fix my problem but that was not the fault of the tech- she was very helpful and communicated well.
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?
~SarahMae: I'd give them a two out of five for ease of finding your way to help.
GetHuman: What about quality of communication. How would you rate that on a 1 to 5 scale?
~SarahMae: 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?
~SarahMae: For that I would say two out of five.
GetHuman: And finally- any advice for other DirecTV customers?
~SarahMae: Call them early in the day or late. Don't forget any personal or account information you might need for DirecTV to know who you are.
GetHuman: Well there you have it. Some useful feedback and words from ~SarahMae taken from his DirecTV customer service problem that occurred on November 6th, 2017.
