All companies in this economy will enforce contracts. It is a way to guarantee continued Revenue. They will site you signed a contract with a two year agreement and were aware of the early termination. Not sure if you can find someone to take over the service and do a "move" while it remains in your name.

Why are there so many stupid people that sign contracts without reading what they sign,and then want to know how to void the contract? You can reduce your programming to the lowest level in the contract "FAMILY" and one receiver $30.mo, or pay the ETF(early termination fee). You could try calling D* to see if they have any other offers to reduce your costs and keep you as a customer.

Based on this stupid phone call with Directv regarding them trying to up my contract for 2 more years due to equipment failure under the protection plan I am paying for, we may cut down to the cheapest package and one receiver and switch. I know about our contract and have no complaints about the ORIGINAL contract we signed.
