DIRECTV last night experienced a nationwide technical meltdown with numerous subscribers saying their picture had frozen and/or their receivers suddenly began re-setting indefinitely.


The technical glitch could not come at a worse time with a large number of Americans staying home to prevent catching the Coronavirus.

While there were some reports that the outages lasted just 15 minutes or so last night, some subscribers this morning are reporting on social media sites that the picture interruptions are continuing.

“#directv my box keeps freezing up and I have to reboot. I have called technical support 4 times and no matter which option I choose it says the number has been disconnected,” @annfkana tweeted a few minutes after midnight ET today.

“Lost signal and online viewing still messing up,” tweeted @Shannonreedy around 4 a.m. ET today. “I tried rebooting the box but it keeps messing up.”

Downdetector.com, which tracks companies’ technical performance, says the largest number of online complaints came around 8:45 p.m. ET last night.
