There is never anyone on the other end even though they are the ones calling me. Unknown caller.
Two calls from this number today, left no message.
I don't answer toll-free calls unless I know who it is and that I have $ at that time. I'm 1/3 month late on a DirecTV bill. They're good about turning service on again if the cutoff date arrives and you pay online.
Called us again to collect on a payment that was "overdue." The caller became quite rude when I politely informed him they might have the wrong number since we had just received our bill in the mail a couple of days ago.
This is NOT Directv calling.
Direct TV for sure, billing/collections
If no name will not answer or if area code is unknown will not answer'If you block your name and location will not pickup but block this number.
unknown,Direct TV Programming sucks because they want to force you buy bigger and more expensive packages, billings ? sucks,in a message and asked me to call back on an important business matter call tham back no one can till u about the call
Someone fradulently opened an account in my name as I receeived a call that an account had been opened in my name from this number. Called DirecTV and they said that no such account existed. One month later an inquiry appears on my credit report. Called fraud divison of DirecTV and they stated that it was the fault of the 3 credit bureaus and not them. Asked to speak with someone in mgmt and was told no such person exists as they were in the field investigating cases. Fraud rep was very unprofessional and not helpful. Would never select or recommend them as a service provider. Bad experiences travel farther than good.
I rarely get calls from telemarketers but from DirecTV. I have now placed their 5th number on my call rejection list. We have been a customer for 8 years and not one late bill.
I just spoke with DIRECTV and this number is not them. I have an account, however got suspicious when they said I had a balance due and wanted me to pay over the phone. I called a different number on my bill, their customer service rep. assured what I was postive on. My account balance is zero.
The customer sercive rep. took the 866 number and is going to report it as fraud to her superiors.
Direct TV Programming sucks because they want to force you buy bigger and more expensive packages. Not the Direct TV they used to be.
direct tv service sucks shit they never do what they claim they always charge more than what is stated in their ad
So in otherwords what your saying is. You shut down or didnt pay your DirectV service an now they sold your name to a collection agency. An from this day forward they will constantly call this number till they are sure you are home an they can file a class action suite against you so they can get there money eventually.
I see now.
Received a few calls from this number. After looking up the number, and realizing it was DirecTV, I answered. I had fallen behind on my monthly bill and they were calling to tell me there was a balance due.
Some rude bastard just called from the number above....Would not tell me what company it was with. He was a dumb-ass! If he would have just told me, I would have paid the little $69. owed.
What dumb shits out there, who do not know how to use the phone. He probably just got out of jail. Call Centers don't care!
Later and Peace

Jul 14th, 2008Yes would be nice if thye adentified themselves, howver they called and asked for a Geneevia (or however you spell it) and that is not the name of anyone in my house, but we do have directv.
the person or company who call from this tel number do not leave messages.
DirecTV called again. This time they identified themselves in a message and asked me to call back on an important business matter. They both want me to come back and are trying to charge me outrageous termination fees.
I got a call, no message, I called back. DirecTV answered. I broke my contract with them two months ago because of outrageous HD upgrade charges. They're now trying to charge me $329, so I suppose the call was about this.
I am behind on my DirecTV account, so it's probably a request for payment. Someone calls from this number 866-544-8416 never leaves a message. I don't answer any 800, 888, or 866 numbers, and was not sure who it was until I looked the number up on Google. If there is a problem with my account, whoever is calling should leave a message. I don't read minds through the phone line!
hangs on the line long enough to leave empty messages, second call in two days.
I cancelled service for my office and they have been harassing me since to reconnect. I told the person to f*** themselves.

Oct 11th, 2007Called multiple times, answered twice and got hung up on. I can't wait till my contract with Direct TV is up!
They did not leave a message.
UPDATE: Beware! This is a scam. I got another call and this time it was indeed someone thanking me for paying my DirecTV bill. A couple of days later, my debit card account was frozen because there were three withdrawals from my account for around $500 each that seemed out of the ordinary. They certainly were. One charge showed up as a DirecTV purchase and the other two were shown as ALLTEL puerchases (my phone company). If you do get a call from these assholes, check the bank account you use to pay your bill frequently.
Call from Direct TV to follow-up on online payment (confirmation) as well as follow-through on customer service call I placed regarding a tech issue. Left message - which is rare - and surprisingly, it was a human being calling.
Used *69 to get the number of a call that hung up before I got to the phone. It must be DirecTV, as the others have stated, since I made a payment online yesterday.
This number continually calls and when I answer no one is there.
On caller ID, says 800 service-never leaves messages. As soon as I pick up, no one answers-
It was DirecTV calling to inform me that they received payment of my bill. I made payment online yesterday so I guess it was just a confirmation call. Wierd, I've never had them call before and we've had DirecTV for 3 years.
DirecTV keeps calling my cell, assuming I'm someone else. I am not a DirecTV customer. They should not have this number. No caller ID is displayed.
DirectTV called me on my cell phone (which is on the DO NOT CALL LIST) to solicit my business.
My free dvd player was delivered today from direct tv so perhaps they were just following up on it. It would be nice if they left a message
I cancelled my DirecTV in September '06 and I'm awaiting my credit. I didn't know this was their number.
I had cancelled my DirecTv service, and they called to settle up the final bill.
I have direct TV and they shut it off because I didnt have $$$.
There was no answer when i picked up the phone. The called ID only displayed the number.
