Does DirecTV provide any service for people who only need the programming for less than 12 months?
DirecTV does offer a seasonal package for customers who, for example, move to a summer home during the summer months. These customers still agree to 12 months of service, and then when they move to their summer home, their service is suspended. If service was suspended after month 9, then the customer is required to reactivate their service on an agreed date and finish their remaining 3 months of service on the original 12 month agreement.
