@REmontee  Are you trying to sign up for Directv Streaming or are you a Directv Satellite customer trying to stream your service through a phone tablet or computer?

To provide answers, you have to explain in detail the problem you are having. Describe symptomes, error messages, etc. Just avoid any personal details as this is a public forum. And please, avoid ALL CAPS as makes it rather painful to read for many (or come off as just SHOUTING everything).

Are you trying to setup DirecTV (the satellite service which has secondary streaming perks), or DIRECTV STREAM (service only by streaming)?

And that setup is that for an account you've already ordered and established (so just trying to log in and use the perks or service), or are you having trouble order the service to begin with?

As this is your first post we have don't know who "that SOB" is that you didn't find helpful. I do suggest for official help at least calling, as online chat as of late seems to be poorly trained or outsourced learning as they go (in my opinion). Any other option would be 3rd party and shouldn't be used for support in the first place.
