My bill was paid this month, I don’t have YouTubeTV. The keep asking me to update my account, if my account was not up to date how did they get paid. When I went to check if my account wasn’t up to date, I put my CVV code in and they charged my account again, I like having YouTubeTV, but it is giving me a headache.
