I logged on to Directv and there was an alert posted that my credit card would expire soon and I need to update it. I don't use my card to pay my bill. What will happen if I don't update the card with them?

I would bet it has to do with the contract you signed. Somewhere in it you agreed to keep a credit card in force with them as a vendor recipient. If you cancel your service early or just stop paying them they can and will hit your card.

Or it could be something else.

I know they used my cc to charge to ship the equipment to me...I got the same message when I logged in. But my account with D* goes through my Telco so I get billed from them

I did go to the website and update my card. I had forgot to do that when I received my card renewal. Anyway, that keeps me abiding to my agreement. Keldhar thanks for the snippit.
