What are those problems? Have you called to cancel your current DirecTV service?

What problems do you have?

Are you trying to get regular DirecTV (satellite) or a streaming-only version (DIRECTV STREAM / DirecTV via Internet)?

In general you contact DirecTV to order their service and contact U-Verse to cancel theirs. But more details are needed to give you guidance.

What are problems with Uverse versus Direct Tv

U-Verse is a grandfathered service only available to current customers. If a current customer moves to an address where U-Verse is available, they may keep it. If a current customer moves to an area where U-Verse is not available, it's lost.

DirecTV has a streaming service in addition to satellite TV. If you wish not to have satellite, their streaming service is their only other current offering.
