Ordering Direct TV Satellite TV Service
After you decide on which system and which program package you
want, you can place your order online, or you can call a
toll-free number to order through a Direct TV representative.
The representative will take your order, schedule your
installation, and answer any questions you may have.
Installation time is usually one to five days after you order.
At the scheduled installation time a certified Direct TV
installer will install your system, test it to make sure it
works, then show you how to use all the functions and controls.
Operating the Direct TV satellite system may seem a little
tricky at first, so I suggest you ask all the questions you need
to while your installer is there, so you'll feel comfortable
with your new system.
