  Are you sure you haven't had DirectTV?

  LOL at your last comment.
  
  After sending in the "I'll never go back from Broadband" post last week, I've had the experience of having my broadband go down, and having ATTBI tell me that they will send a tech out in 2 weeks.
  
  Serves me right.

  $%*& !! This is why I read techdirt...

  First I'm hear of this...
  
  I was a very happy Telocity customer and was very displeased by the DirecTV buyout, but the service remained excellent and even got better.
  
  I can say this, if they do actually follow through with the shutdown I'll also cancel my Sat. TV account as well.

  No Subject Given

  This is actually a big negative. As these viable alternatives keep shutting down, it looks like the only source of DLS will be your local phone company.
  
  And when's the last time any one had anything good to say about their phone companies service ? ? ?

  Why tell the customer?

  The first I heard about this was a phone call from my brother who had seen it on Slashdot.
  
  There is still no official communication from DirecTVDSL to us, the customers.
