To apply for DirecTV you do so on their website.

If you want Netflix then go to their website as they have nothing to do with DirecTV.

However, be aware there are 3 services under the DirecTV umbrella.

DirecTV: Satellite service. Requires clear view of sky, 24 month agreement, tech install.

DirecTV via Internet: Similar billing model to the satellite service but is streamed through your internet. They provide you a proprietary streaming box.

DIRECTV STREAM: Another streaming-only service. But it is a bring your own device (BYOD) model. You buy your chosen streaming device (Roku, Firestick, DirecTV's proprietary box, etc.) to use.

No matter what service you go with, make sure to check the channel lineup to see if what you want is included. Again, that doesn't include Netflix as that is its own TV provider.
