Directv, is it worth it??

Question

i rarely watch tv and i have an iPhone i wanna hook up, my parents said their sick of paying for comcast cuz it sux, so if we switch to directv my mom will hook up to an iPhone

my question is, does directv offer the only channels i watch: discovery, comedy central, nickolodeon, cuz i love daily show, colbert report, george lopez, mythbuster, and the one about tim allen ,home improvement, so ya know, t would be nice

Answer 1

you but packages. My Mom used to work for them a long while ago so we got it. You get certain channels and they may all be in one package, or you may have to buy two or three packages because those three channels may be in three different categories. It's soo much better than cable though.

Answer 2

Yes, although Comast service does sux, the problem with DirecTV is that they require a 1-1/2 to 2  year contract.  Think before you get tangled in a contract!

Answer 3

Personally, i like comcast much better. sure there are all kinds of promos with direct tv, comcast has them too. no contracts and you can call them any time day or night. i dont have any problems with them in my area. now my poor mom has to have direct tv cause comcast not available in her area yet, and if the wind blows, her service is out.

guess it depends on where you are.

Answer 4

absolutely. i have directv, its worth it.

Answer 5

Check out the directv web page for details on what is available in your area. My husband and I switched to directv from Comcast in December. We get exactly the same channels as Comcast and reception is excellent, but we pay $37 less a month for it ($96 down to $59, we have the HBO premium added).

Plus, directv has all kinds of promos where you pay less for the first year, etc. We also use the DVR (Tivo) tons and it works great. Customer Service is way better than comcast (comcast is so bad they actually implemented sofware to 'call you back' so you don't have to wait...because you WILL wait).
