What are people saying about Tvpromise.com 2020?

Few customers have mentioned the below feedback, so read ahead-

Within a week, I will be switching from a two-year plan as I plan to cancel service in favor of an ‘OTT.’

I received a call informing me that I need to change my old plan, and I am required to switch to a new project. After years of being satisfied with U-Verse specifications, they now want me to switch to DirecTv. In addition to this, the pressure was palatable over the call.

Rates for the services provided are increased while the quality of the service provided is decreased. DirecTv or whatever they call themselves now. I’m about to switch to other service providers.

Conclusion

Tvpromise.com 2020 is trying to make a new agreement with Tegna (owner of channel 11) with mutual understanding by deciding the higher rates on which both agree. But to date, both of them have not reached a negotiation amount to which both agree. As a result, Tegna has pulled off its services.

But it is currently not known when the channels like ‘Channel 11’and others would be back for customers to enjoy their favorite games and shows on Saturday and Sunday on AT&T U-verse and DirecTv.

  1. You did not give us any more information that I didn’t already know after calling u-verse this is outrageous we’re dealing with not just NBC but the ABC and I’m not paying the kind of money that I’m paying to not get what I want to watch so it looks like I’m going to change to another provider this is ridiculous and I’ve had nothing but problems with you ever since I took him on 2 years ago internet sucks

    • Ridiculous the amount I pay for direct tv and you can’t have channel 6 on. I’ve watched that my entire life . Now I’m checking to see my other options for other companies or getting rid of cable altogether.

    • FUCK YOU ATT, YOU JUST LOST ME AS A CUSTOMER. YOU KEEP RAISING YOUR PRICES DURING THE WORST RECESSION, EVEN WORSE THAN THE GREAT DEPRESSION. YOU ARE GREEDY & A HUGE CONGLOMERATE THAT RAPES CUSTOMERS OF THEIR MONEY. YOUR SOFTWARE SUCKS, YOU EQUIPMENT SUCKS, YOUR CUSTOMER SERVICE SUCKS & ATT SUCKS! I AM GONE. I WILL BE TAKING MY LANDLINE, MY TV AND MY INTERNET TO SOME OTHER DESERVING COMPANY THAT KEEPS THEIR SOFTWARE UP TO DATE & STOPS THE ANNOYING GLITCHES THAT I LIVE WITH EVERY SINGLE DAY WITH ATT. EVERY TIME I GO TO MY COMPUTER, IT SAYS THAT I DON’T HAVE INTERNET. THEN I HAVE TO WAIT 20 MINUTES FOR IT TO RESET. YOU TURNED OFF MY PHONE LINE FOR OVER 48 HOURS, WHICH MEANS IF I HAD HAD ANOTHER HEART ATTACK, I COULD NOT HAVE CALLED 911. I CAN’T AFFORD A CELL PHONE & I CAN GET A BETTER DEAL WITH SO MANY OTHER COMPANIES. THEN EVERY OTHER DAY YOUR STUPID BRAND NEW TV RECEIVER JUST STOPS & GOES BLACK. IT WON’T RECORD WHILE THIS IS HAPPENING & YOU DON’T EVEN FIX THIS. I HAVE TO WAIT 30 MINUTES FOR THE TV RECEIVER TO RESET. I COULD NAME A 100 THINGS THAT IS WRONG WITH YOUR TV SERVICE, YOUR INTERNET SERVICE AND I AM DEFINITELY GETTING A CELL PHONE CUZ I CAN GET IT CHEAPER THAT WHAT I PAY YOU. GO TO HELL ATT & I WILL SIT BACK & WATCH ALL YOUR CUSTOMERS LEAVE YOU. YOU MAKE BILLIONS, YOU CAN CERTAINLY AFFORD WHATEVER FOR ABC. MY GOD, IF I HAD AN ANTENNA, I COULD GET IT FOR FREE! YOU ARE THE WORST COMPANY OUT THERE, ALMOST AS BAD AS BANK OF AMERICA! YOU ARE DEFINITELY WORSE! THANKS FOR CARING ABOUT AMERICANS & ACTING JUST LIKE RUMP, NOT CARING ABOUT THE PANDEMIC & NOT CARING ABOUT PEOPLE DYING & NOT CARING ABOUT THE FACT THAT WE HAVE STAY AT HOME ORDERS & I CAN’T AFFORD YOUR OUTRAGEOUS CHARGES. I AM SOOOO DONE WITH FUCKED UP ATT.

    • I feel that the price we have to pay for AT&T and for the package we are entitled to every channel that we are paying for! Also, I am seventy five years old and
      somewhat disabled and my one and only soap opera “yes I said soap opera” is or should I say was on that channel! If that channel is not back soon or at least
      filled in with something else I am going to check on other alternatives!

    • I am retired from AT&T. I have been with this corporation starting march 1, 1981, I see they, along with all corporations, including Tegna, are all for profit only. Not a single corp. gives a shit about quality customer service. I do have a long history with AT&T, If any want more details of my experience with AT&T just ask.

  2. This is absolutely pitiful that both over rated parties cannot or will not come to a fair agreement. The problem is while you are worried about your egos, WHO pays the price……of course, the CUSTOMER. We are constantly at the mercy of all of you and frankly I am sick of it. The “little” guy always gets an increase , while receiving NO INCREASE in any service. In fact, the service is awful.
    During this terrible time in our country, with the Covid virus keeping most of us confined to our homes, you have done NOTHING for your customers. You should be ashamed that you are part of the problem in this country and not part of a solution. You are no different than the Congress and Senate, letting people struggle while you selfish idiots squabble over a few dollars. You are only worried about your bonus!!
    Please be decent human beings and think of others, just ONCE!!

    • I knew when ATT bought Direct TV, It would eventually suck. I have been a customer for ever. Can’t continue watching series we have DVR-ed, lost our news programs, lost our NFL games, Always have to call every few months and beg to get special discounts and a fair price. With so many streaming services, and the way you treat your customers during these times, is revealing how greedy you bastards are.

  8. For years and years, this keeps happening! and it is because of the stupid sports channels ! Why in the world don’t you dumb owners buy a channel and only have sports on it for those who want it and leave these other channels alone I am sick of having to wait till some dumb football game , golf game and the like goes overtime sometimes as much as a 1/2 hour + then I miss my program
    Take the dumb sports out of the equation or let us buy the channel without sports that would be the best just have pure sports channels!and let the people who want that pay for it!

  9. This is similar to being held hostage! While corporations fight for higher prices, which WILL be passed on to users as”fees”, the consumer has lost no matter how the pie is sliced!

I WILL be looking for other providers that try to keep customers first…yeah I know Good Luck!

    That is certainly better than being ripped off by DIRECTV which continues to charge the same rate for fewer channels.

    • NBC this is a Joke come on pulling your channel from a paid service when I can buy a digital TV antenna for $19.99 and pull it of the airway free… All the big players want as many viewers as possible ABC, CBS, FOX but NBC wants a smaller user base ? If you had 1 living brail cell NBC would want as many viewers as possible so you could sell upgrades and improve your Peacock sales.

However the price for both services has grown exponentially since the two companies merged. This is a joke…. acting like someone named Trump!!!!

  24. Dear Staff of TVPROMISE.com,
    I am very displeased with TEGNA for removing channel 11 from Direct TV,especially when seniors like myself are home bound ie., sheltering in place, I strongly object to this selfish move and will organize others in my position to have their feelings known. I am hopeful that TEGNA management will recognize the damage done to their reputation and act soon ( before Christmas) to restore channel 11 to the DIRECT TV lineup.
    Sincerely,

  50. I have to believe that, given the one-sided facts offered in this “explanation”, as well as the horrible syntax associated with same, this is no more than a cheap and poorly conceived attempt at extorting more money from my service provider on your part. I believe that the rates at which your agreement was initially set are more than adequate and your group is simply trying to leverage your position for more money from Directv, even knowing that it will ultimately come out of my (the consumer’s) pocket. Shame on you for this, and you can keep your programming, for all I care!

  51. Interesting. I have issues with AT&T’s wifi it only works part time and the door camera doesn’t stay connected all the time. Add to this my 91 year old mother lives with me and can not get to the door if I am not there at times I don’t get notifications that someone came to the door. However AT&T says they are not the problem but I can watch the wifi signal come and go. Sounds like it’s time to say AMF to AT&T and Uverse.

  66. It is not fair for the Direct TV customers to lose the channels in question. We have been a loyal customer for a long time. Our neighboring county can still get their channels. Especially with the COVID virus we are watching TV more than normal.

    So this being said I ask will our bill go down this next pay period? Or do we need to look for another service? Or go back to the old fashion TV antenna?

  73. why not get TEGNA and the other 6 local channels get together and form a network with a good recorder a price us older viewers can afford. This 120 premium channels that is not to our liking or our view habits at 170.00 a mouth is just to much . Can’t afford it. Think about it .

  74. In all these perilous times people losing jobs, income slashed and many on the verge of being homeless now not only do we have politicians playing with our life’s but now the TEGNA and AT&T doing the same. We are nothing but pawns in the eye’s of the rich who only seek to get richer at our expense.

  76. I have been with AT&T for years for TV, Internet and my landline. My favorite channel is 10 and all of my shows are on that channel!! I am furious that I cannot see and keep up with my shows. During this pandemic makes it worse as we are all staying in to be SAFE?? I will be checking other service providers for my business!!

  77. Just one more reason why I am finally considering dropping Directv after being a customer since the beginning of Directv. As a Hughes employee when Directv was first launched back in t˙e 1980’s, I become one of the first Directv users and have remained faithful through all these years in spite of continually increasing costs and decreasing quality of service. But now my relationship has finally become so strained that I am now looking into a streaming service in lieu of Directv.
    One saving grace might be if I could get my NY and/or LA CBS channels back (Ch 390/391), which I had from the very beginning until just this past year when Directv required me to give up these channels. I will look into that option this week while also researching the streaming option.
    So sad after all these years.

  78. Due to Covid and retirement, I am pretty much homebound. My TV is extremely important to me and probably 80% of what I watch is on KPNX Channel 12 Phoenix/NBC.

  83. I really don’t care if AT&T cant reach an agreement with Tegna. Hassling over money is your problem not mine. Since I am not getting a channel that I paid for I believe you have decided to make your problem my problem. I have a great solution. I currently have a land line, 2 smart phones, tv and internet service with AT&T. I believe I will be calling Spectrum TV and set up a package with them that will cover all the things I have with AT&T. This will cost AT&T about $350 a month. Not a hell of a lot of money for a company like AT&T but I’m sure Spectrum will appreciate my business.

  87. We are not happy at all about the loss of channel 8 on our DirecTV. Many of the programs we watched were on this channel and if this dispute is not settled soon, we may have to switch to another carrier. This is not the only channel we have been unable to receive in our packet as things have been changing a lot with this carrier. We appreciate the need to keep costs down as this is a very trying year for all of us and we have been instructed to stay at home throughout the year due to COVID. Please work out your differences and compromise.

  102. This is total b.s. We were basically required to switch to DIrectTV and now numerous channels are removed and then this Tegna crap comes up and a simple local channel is removed…but our rates continue to go up. Something needs to be done to help the consumer. We contacted AT&T and were told to go in to tvpromise.com and apply for a $20.00 credit…there is no place to apply for this credit. Someone needs to get back with your customers and explain better than just stating ‘we are sorry and we are working on it’…sorry doesn’t help me pay my bills and if I don’t pay my bill, you will disconnect, correct? So you make things so hard that most people will just give up and you just keep your $20.00…why don’t you just give the credit to everyone affected without us having to even try to figure out how to get this?? Would make much more sense…

    unhappy by shutting down a major tv station.
    Try informing customers that our monthly bill will increase by some approximate dollar ( $ ) amount, get
    the new contract signed without shutting down tv stations & EVERYBODY’S HAPPY❗❗
    THEN…. EVERYBODY WOULD BE HAPPY & NOT WANT TO CHANGE CABLE COMPANYS❗❗

    When new contract time draws near, (maybe 6 mos. before contract expires), start negotiations early.
    If you’re already starting negotiations early, maybe start earlier or threaten employees jobs if contracts
    aren’t signed before they expire & FIRE 🔥 THEM❗❗
    After all — it’s your customers that help pay employees wages & programming, right❓

As a longtime customer of this corporation, I feel that there should never be a risk of losing a local channel. Please do not allow this to be a permanent removal of CBS. It’s one of the most watched networks in the U.S. A lot of people are talking about leaving AT&T because they allowed this to happen. Think of your customers.

  165. You people make us sick. Just because you can’t agree on a money issue – and it’s always about the money with you – the viewers have
    to suffer. You are unbelievable. We are done with AT&T TV and NBC. Plenty of great programming on tv without either of you – not to mention
    the money WE will save going with another provider.

  168. I am very disappointed with Direct TV that at the most difficult time in our country they chose to deliberately not negotiate a firm deal with Tegna. Not only are people spending more time in their house watching tv due to the pandemic, but it is that time of year that all the Christmas specials that many of us look forward to are showing. Depending how long this goes on I am seriously considering changing to Xfinity as many of my neighbors have it and are enjoying all the programs I cannot see. I went thru this last year with Direct TV and Sinclair that went on for weeks/moths. I won’t do that again.

  169. Do you see an end to this issue anytime soon? Will a credit be given to Direct TV customers in the absence of Ch. 11?

    Do I need to find another service as Ch. 11 was my go to station?

    And to make it even worse THERE ARE THOSE OF US WHO DEARLY LOVE ALEX TREBECK AND WE ARE
    MISSING THE LAST OF HIS SHOWS WHILE HE WAS LIVING. We have little to no income and you big
    wigs who have everything are trying to make more money. Where is the equality in all of that? As in almost all big
    entities it’s the little people who get hurt because of GREED. It seems to me that all you want is more,
    More, MOre, MORe, MORE.

  171. I am ESPECIALLY furious over the NBC channel being off.
    RIGHT NOW ON JEOPARDY THEY ARE SHOWING THE LAST SHOWS IN ORDER OF ALEX TREBEK HOSTING.

    For those of us following Alex and Jeopardy for 35 years he’s been a family every evening. To have this petty crap for money going on during this particular time in America when we need models like Alex Trebek and good clean shows to be viewed time in our nation and for this channel containing Jeopardy to be being petty is horrendous. We will probably never again get to see and hear Alex in the shows he so loved in the order they last appeared. All involved should be ashamed of the selfishness being shown. Am missing him like a true friend. Rather heartless moneygrubbers on both sides. Millions of people are being effected.

  210. AT&T TV says to use Locast.org to get local channel 11 in Phoenix. I did that, and it is not free, they want a donation of $5.00 per month and you start a program and then they cut it off asking for the donation. You can log off and come back on only to see about 15-20 of the program on channel 11 when they cut off again asking for a donation. So it is not Free, not can you watch a whole program without them asking for a donation so you can watch a program. I am paying AT&T TV $75.00 a month now which was to include all local channels, why should I pay an additional $5.00 for one local channel. Either get this resolved, or I will be cancelling my service. You definitely are not the only game in town. It’s very annoying and no notice or reason, just cut off.

  216. I am outraged because I can no longer see any of my local broadcasts, mainly on Channel 13WMAZ TV. which is our CBS Network. I depend on Channel 13 for my locals news and weather as well as TV programming on the CBS Network. I can understand a day or two delay in the companies involved to come to an agreement about how much to increase your charges to us, which is high enough, but I know you will increase our rates, so do it, and at least, during this pandemic, when we are being quarantined, let us watch TV and our regular broadcasting without interruption. This is ridiculous that we have been without Channel 13WMAZ TV for weeks. We knew when we heard DIRECTV had been purchased by AT&T that we were in for it. Do what you have to do to get us back to some measure of normal in this Covid world we’re living in, PLEASE!!

  261. This is ridiculous! At a time like this we should be enjoying our favorite programs especially since we pay for them. Do the right thing TEGNA, just bring back the station and stop the nonsense.

  262. It is shame that companies like you interrupt the views of you station(s). I am missing some great programs due to your greediness. I am sure my bill will not be reduced until this settled and further more will increase when a settlement is reached. I am looking into other ways to lower my cable bill and assure you Direct TV will not be my choice to continue with this company.

  263. This is a crock of SHIT!!!!!
    During a pandemic, when we at home more than usual, less money coming into our households,
    AT&T don’t do business with these assholes!!
    They want more money, for fucks sake, so do we.
    This is going to send paying customers elsewhere.
    Myself I’m looking into Free now good old days of the antenna system 😜😜

  265. These people have two weeks to get this done or we are taking our business elsewhere. I’d love to know what the other carriers paying…COX, Spectrum, etc.
    We haven’t been able to watch Steven Colbert, our local channel 8 news, Sunday Morning or any of our favorite programs. This is ridiculous. We paid AT&T
    to be able to watch those programs. Stop being greedy pigs and get it done. Remember, you aren’t the only company out there.

  266. I said it when pay tv first reared its ugly head. I knew from start that we would buy into it and be at their mercy .what should happen is that everybody cancel their pay tv, find other free venues and starve the das**res out

  267. I am paying a huge amount for Directv each month. It’s not fair that I am paying for a channel that is and has been unavailable for a long period of time! I know how these contract disputes happen, as I was in the business of simulcast, and now retired. I have over 600 channels and I can’t even watch my hometown NFL game!!! I’m calling AT&T to complain and get rid of everything! I want credit for the weeks we are not seeing the TEGNA channel.

  268. You are over priced and under delivered when it comes to your services. I am confident in saying that you have zero concern when it comes to the rendering of services to your paying customers. I am searching for alternatives – I am not getting close to what I pay for these services. What bothers me the most is that You Do Not Care!

  269. We have not seen some of our favorite CBS shows for over 2 weeks now and it’s about time AT&T and Tegna settle this thing. First, I want a refund for the time I have not gotten a station I paid for in our contract, and second, if this is not settled soon, I will take my business elsewhere. I’ve had it with corporate feuding at the expense of customer service. Taking advantage of us as this pandemic rages on and our stay-at-home orders continue, is really an offense to all of us. You are despicable.

  270. I began HATING AT&T when there was Insistence that I was using 150GB of internet in one day and was constantly being charged a $25.00 fee for each “occurrence” – when the only internet I was using was on my computer – I do not “game”- nor do I stream any movies, watch Youtube, or do any other “internet stuff” – plus Hubby and I were both gone between 6 to 12 hours Mon – Fri each week since I worked full-time – he worked part-time and hubby is computer illiterate – so he only played the card games provided on our PC – NEVER accessing any internet at all. The only thing used was when we would watch a movie off the normal “on-demand” channels through DirectTV (those offered through Hallmark, HBO, Sony, etc.), which I was told “didn’t count” – yet it did.

    PLUS AT&T was charging me $48 per month for a land line that I could not use outside a six mile radius of my home – they said it was 10 – but Kaiser Roseville Hospital is less than 10 miles (exactly 9.4) from me (I’m in North Highlands, Sac County), and because this $48 dollar service DID NOT include ANY long distance capability, I couldn’t call Kaiser on Eureka using my landline – totally ludicrous. So when the challenge began with my internet, I told AT&T to Shove It Where The Sun doesn’t shine, and switched internet and phone service. THEN DirectTV went fully to AT&T – and there have been nothing EXCEPT constant rate hikes. When they switched I was paying less than $125 per month for my whole bill of cable, internet and phone – I HAVE NOT changed Anything with my cable and I’m paying over $170 per month Just For DirectTV – so this is absolute extortion. crappy service. So now, perhaps it’s time to switch from DirectTV to another cable service.

    The ONLY GOOD THING about AT&T is their telephone customer service reps – they were ALWAYS helpful and courteous – it’s just the Company Itself That is totally horrible.

    The sad part is I’ve been an AT&T customer since they were Pacific Bell back in 1970 – as soon as the switch was made to AT&T is when the company became self absorbed and catered to their CEOs, share holders, and stake holders – screw the customer. AT&T has become a totally horrible company.

  271. When am I going to get Channel 5 back on AT&T TV? It has been weeks and nothing is being done. If I can’t get the channels I want, I will have to cancel and go somewhere else. This is ridiculous.

  272. Direct TV has always provided horrible service. And Tegna TV? Why are they doing this…I’m guessing it’s greed, for sure. Both parties are ridiculous but I advise ANYONE who has Direct TV to get rid of it asap.

  273. I am deeply saddened that this controversy marking the final episodes of Jeopardy for Sacramento ABC. The final tribute episodes are being held hostage by parties that have no sense or sensibility with these Covid19 times.

  274. The story of not wanting to give in to Tegna because you would have to raise your customer’s rate to pay for that increase is ridiculous to say. We are already paying
    prime rates and you still go up every year. You would think that this year’s awful pandemic and people trying to pay and hold on to a little entertainment in their life
    would be an incentive not to take anything else away from their lives.

  275. After 24 years with AT&T, or whatever they have called themselves over the years, I thought I finally was getting a reasonable.
    They made me switch to U-Verse 10 years ago and my bill more than doubled rate than stay the same, or at least increased reasonably.
    The service was lousy too. In late November after threatening to quit completely, they gave me a much better deal than what I have had for the past 10 years.
    Then December, all help broke loose. They removed my favorite NEWS/Weather channel, and a lot more. Like I have read, the airwaves are free. .
    We should be compensated and channels turned back on.
    Or maybe we should just cut all TV ties with these comapanies for a set period of time. A boycot. The gustomer should always be right.
    No service, no reimbursement for nothing.

  276. This has gone on long enough…we are not receiving what we are paying for…do we have to cancel with AT&T? We overpay as it is for the “service.” As customers….are we being reimbursed someway for being in the middle of your dispute?

  282. Ok. I’ve been with ATT since 2011 and pay them an average of more than $200 a month. ATT, you have ONE JOB!!! Keep the channels on my TV. So what do you do??? You lose 2 of the biggest networks in the country! I can get NBC and ABC with rabbit ears. How do you lose these channels?? Where I work, you screw up that big you will be FIRED!!! I’ve been getting some good deal offers from Xfinity Cable and Internet service lately. I am missing good football games today because you can’t do your job. Even if you gave me a $50 a month discount, I would still go somewhere else if you don’t fix this by 2021. Who knows… ATT may lose CBS and FOX in the next year. And my bill will go UP again like it did this month. You need to fix this. Poor management….

  283. I pay a lot of money every month for service with direct tv. The ONLY reason I have direct tv is for the football games. Now because of your silly dispute I am missing the ACC championship. Not acceptable, either give me a refund or come get your crap off and out of my house.
