To cancel your DIRECTV subscription, follow these steps:
- Call DIRECTV customer service: The only way to cancel your DIRECTV subscription is by calling their customer service at 1-800-531-5000[1][2][3]. The line is available from 8 am to midnight EST daily[4].
- Provide your account number: When prompted, provide your DIRECTV account number. You can find this on your billing statement or by logging into your DIRECTV account online[3].
- Speak to a customer service representative: Request to speak with a customer service representative and inform them that you want to cancel your subscription[1][3].
- Explain your reason for canceling: Be prepared to explain why you want to cancel your service. The representative may offer you special deals or promotions to keep you as a customer, but remain firm in your decision if you’re sure about canceling[5].
Keep in mind that if you cancel your DIRECTV subscription before the end of your contract, you may be charged an early termination fee of $15 and a $20 fee for each remaining month in your contract[6][1].
