Ordering DirectTV stream

Hello,

I have been trying to order direct tv stream for a couple of days now. I am able to add package and equipment to my cart, credit check is complete and then once I apply my payment (I’ve tried three different CC’s) they all say “Oops an error has occurred please try again later.” I spoke to an agent on the phone and she was also unable to process my order also due to payment error. Has anyone else had any similar issues?  


PS: Obviously I have enough funds to purchase or I wouldn’t be trying to complete the order.

Is the card a CC or Debit Card? Does it allow reoccurring charges?

You also can use PayPal and tie your card or bank to that. Lot of people use PayPal in case their current card gets compromised and impact monthly payments causing service to be cancelled.

I used two CC’s and one debit card they all said an error occurred. The agent I spoke to yesterday said that the system maybe down for DirectTV but I tried again today and had the same issue. And yes, they all allow reoccurring charges. Maybe I will try the PayPal route to see if that will go through. If not I guess I will be stuck with YoutubeTv 😅

Thank you for the suggestion.

Just to let you know that they do not except Debit Cards for the service.
