DirectTV’s Early Service Termination Fees Draw Injunction Request
Lawyers for California customers of The DirecTV Group have filed a preliminary injunction motion seeking to stop the satellite television service from automatically withdrawing early cancellation fees from customer bank accounts and credit cards without their knowledge or consent. The motion came in a lawsuit alleging that DirecTV fails to adequately disclose the fees when customers sign up or change their service.
