Can I cancel DIRECTV without penalty due to AT&T merger?

[IamDavid]

I despise AT&T and will never contribute a single penny to their bottom line so I want out of the last year of my DirecTV contract. Think this can be done since the merger was approved?

 

[BoomerD]

No.

Did anything about your service or price change without your consent? No it did not, so no you can't

 

[JEDIYoda]

No!!

 

[JEDI]

wait.. the merger was approved?!

 

[cabri]

wait.. the merger was approved?!

Approved on Friday.

As to the OP. Unless there is a change to TOS or service parameters, NO

Glad I switched to dish a couple years ago. Will be even happier when I cut the cord in a couple months.

But yeah you're screwed. Your basically forced to give them a penny one way or another.

I was a fool and left Dish last year. I'll probably just pay the cancellation fee and move forward.
