Direct TV
Direct TV is something that my roommate had to have. Which now, I am thanking her for because I love it. I always thought it was a lot more expensive, but after getting our first few bills I realized that it was actually really reasonably priced. This is something I love because some of our other bills are outrageous and I would rather call my dad for money for an electric bill than an insanely high cable or TV or entertainment bill. He would be much more likely to help me out.
Being in college, I rarely have time to watch TV. I am always either in class at sorority stuff or studying (or I guess going out). I have about 3 or 4 shows that I try to watch regularly but sometimes end up missing. When I do get the time though DirecTV makes the experience worth it. I really didn't get why Meghan my roommate insisted on getting DirecTV, but now that we have it and I compare it to my past providers I really do see the difference and we have had the best service with DirecTV as well. I remember one time we had a connection problem and we called the 800 number (dreading it of course) and they helped us right away. They had to send someone out to our house to fix it and they came about 3 hours later (compared to 3-4 days like some other companies I have had I the past). I really was impressed.
The package we have really is cool and our friends like it when they come over. We have a lot of our channels in HD and my roommates (and boyfriend) love the sports package that we got.
I don't know what it is exactly that makes me like DirecTV but I do know that I have had great service and also a great experience with the company itself. And now a days, that is sometimes hard to find. A lot of people when you call the 800 number try to rush you or don't really help you solve the problem and are rude. Or when you call about pricing quotes before you get the service try to scam you and sell you more than you want and don't really listen to you. Overall though this company has been nothing but positive for us and that really can be rare to find.
