upgrade Directv system

some guy named "Jack" from DTV, Denver area called to upgrade our Directv system. He said that our audio and video would no longer be compatible with the TV channels  and that we would start losing channels. He didn't ask for money but said something about a $30/month discount and a one-time $250 fee to be paid later (?), He knew our last payment and billing date! I called Directv Tech and they said that it did not sound legitimate. Does anyone know if this is a scam or should I call him back?

SCAM!!!!!!!!  DTV doesn't call to upgrade you equipment.  If what they said was true then it would effect everyone.
