Getting out of dumb contracts?

When I switched to Directv they made me agree to a 2 year service contract, which is okay I guess.

I served my 2 years. Now my receiver is outdated and I'm upgrading to a new receiver with DVR.

They are telling me I have to agree to another 2 years! Simply for upgrading a receiver! This is ridiculously stupid.

Anybody think so also? Anybody had luck getting out of such a dumb contract? I hate companies who do this.

buy the receiver from them instead of basically renting it. I think the dvr ones are about 300.00 (i'm not sure tho) You wont have to sign a contract. If you plan on using directv for another two years tho why not?
 
You're not in a contact until you accept the new receiver. So what exactly are you wanting to get out of?

Like Cindy say - but the receiver on your own. Go to ebay or other sources, pay cash - no contract.
 
I did buy it....$200, although it was thru them.

I probably will remain with them for 2 more years and more. It's just the principal of them forcing me to extend my contract for such a small "upgrade"

Dang shady companies.

I use to have comcast. They are very expensive. They sure aren't worth my money. Their service is poor also. Just go look at comcast's website...half the crap doesn't even work correctly. They can't even maintain a decent website, that says a lot about the company.
