Double check teh fine print on the paperwork you recieved when you purchased the reciever. All the recievers sold at places like best buy are still leased. You dont ever own a reciever from direct TV. If you look at the boxes or your contract you will see that you are not buying the equipment and that you do not own it. Look over this site more, and you will see that the 200$ you paid has been credited, most people seem to get hit with 300-400$ for not returning the eqiupment. Additionally, when you sign up for their service you agreed to allow them to charge any fees to teh credit card they have on file. Including any cancellation fees.
They have a pretty good racket going, they trust that no one will bother reading the paperwork.
