They did a real nice thing a few months ago and allow credit card auto-pay customers to pick a payment date, which previously was only available to debit card customers.

This overcomes a big pain point - they were charging people credit card the day the bill was generated - you had no way to see the bill before it was paid.

It's been mentioned here already, but figured I'd point it out for anyone that missed it.

Just to make certain: Authorizing DirecTV to take a credit card auto-payment on a particular monthly date…it does not change one's anniversary date, with DirecTV's records, correct? (I actually take some pride in it, because I've been with DirecTV since 1998. So, even if it's silly, I recognize it's how I feel.)

I have been a customer since 1994. Directv has me listed as 2004, because I live in the old Pegasus rip off areas and was forced to sub as a third party. The only good thing Murdoch did was crushing that company.

Changing your payment date won't make any difference to your anniversary date.

How flexible are they on the payment due date?
