Peter Greenberg: Satellite TV on RVs
We purchased our first motor home recently and visited our local DirecTV office. The agent said we would have no trouble receiving satellite television during our three-month trip up North and never informed us of an early cancellation fee. Most RV parks we stayed at were heavily treed for shade, making a satellite signal impossible to receive. We paid for RV parks' television-cable hook-up, which was like paying double to watch television. We keep getting the runaround from DirecTV, since they told us they have an 18-month cancellation policy, which the agent did not tell us about. Since the majority of the time, we could not receive the DirecTV satellite signal, we tried to terminate our relationship with them. They told us it would cost over $300 to terminate our relationship with DirecTV. Since we did not get what the agent promised us, we feel they defaulted, and the $300 termination fee is unjustified. We plan on taking another trip and do not want to pay twice to watch television. Hope you have better luck on getting the termination fee waived. We sure could not. Thank you in advance for your consideration in this matter. –John, Hernando, Fla.
