When calling the customer service... speak to a couple of people.  I've worked for a company with a satelite service and we could refund up to $100.  But we had rules to follow.  And I know that i'd refund more often than some other people would do cuase that customer pissed them off... its very unfair.  \n\nBut honestly, have her talk to a supervisor or manager.  Explain, as nice as you can... that you will agree to pay what you were told should have been the bill and would like the difference refunded.  (simple example, if it was supposed to be .10 cents a min and she was charged $1.00 a min. and used 70 min.  Say I will pay 70 * .10 = 70 and want 630 refunded)\n\nMost often, if you are nice and treat them with respect they will help you out.  Each rep is different and will handle your problem differently.  And if its a big call center, they has to be thousands of employees... Also managers/sups have a higher limit that they can refund.  And don't be afraid to ask to speak to their boss if they can't help out.  They higher you can go, the better.  But see what happens with the lower end guys... some are nice and will help out or give you a credit.

Well Fari just call and tell her that they lied to her about tell her all the truth and if she doesn't want to answer your call just keep insisting until she belives that you are saying the true. Wish a lot of luck and hopefully she'll understand your situation.

See a lawyer, sue her for breaking the agreement or promise. It does not have to be in writing, implied promises stand up in courts.\n\nWill have difficult time finding the one that will take the case.\n\nSo write it off as live and learn experience.

Declare the contract to have been breached, and sell to someone else.

it probably varies from state to state, but in most places, a signed contract has it's own language reguarding cancelling and voiding; I'd read the contract, then call the dealer.

If you signed a contract you are probably stuck in it. The health club I worked at would cancel a person's contract if they got ill or moved 25 miles away from the club. You might want to try one of those excuses.

Give one months notice, and you should be fine, its consumer contract so any clause will be subject to reasonableness test in schedule 2 of ucta. (unfair contract terms act 1977)\n\nWhere a contract has very onerous terms then those terms should specifically be brought to your attention. Even if they were the law will not allow the inequality of bargaining power since you are contracting on their standard terms, so every clause has to be reasonable.\n\nIf the service is substantially different to what is promised then that is a repudiatory breach of contract and you should be entitled to rescind the contract, effectively be brought back into the position before the contract.\n\nI would suggest give notice to terminate on the grounds that they have failed to perform their end of the bargain, if they do not agree you may go to a solicitor and negotiate that way. It depends how much money is involved, whether you should go for small claims or not. \n\nWrite a letter to the company detailing your issues, and say you have all evidence in writing, and wait and see, more than likely they will back out. Even if they issue proceeding from what you have described you have a good counterclaim.

Not without their permission  (that means permission of both (or all) parties in the call).\n\nThe exception could be granted by a court order.

She's turning it off because you don't work for her anymore, I assume since she got you the phone you also used it for work purposes.  She is under no obligation to keep the phone service in her name since you aren't working for her (she doesn't know if you are working or how much you make). Why should she keep it in her name, stop being a deadbeat and put it in your name.  Yes you should pay the disconnect charge, believe me if she sues you she'll win.

In business law a contract is made by an offer and an acceptance.  In your scenario the offer was made by the mobile company to renew the contract at the end of the month by the man doing nothing.  This states that the offer is open for a month.  This is an invitation to treat not an offer to sell.\n\nThe man's acceptance of the offer would come at the end of the month.  As the time hasn't lapsed the acceptance was not made.  Even though the confirmation of renewal papers had been received on the 6th day of the month, a contract had NOT been made.

Yes, she is in breach of contract.  You need to speak to a lawyer about this.  You should also have her arrested for fraud.  Giving your address and phone number is illegal.  The collection companies could press charges against her.  Talk to your family attorney regarding this matter.  A judge can force her to abide by her divorce decree.

Yes, if you enter into a working relationship with a company (i.e. place an order through them) it is accepted that you have impliedly consented to the fact that they can call you if they so desire.  This is true even if you have an unlisted phone number.  Such things do not matter in the world of contracts.  So, always give out a fake phone number at any possible chance.

The have clearly breached the contractual agreement and you therefore have the right to terminate the contract by giving notice in writing. Make a copy of the letter and get a postage receipt and then just ignore them. They know they have no action but big companies try to take advantage of people who don't know their rights.\n\nAlternatively pop down to your local law centre or citizens advice bureau, they have an on duty solicitor who  will be able to advise you as to the best course of action available to you.\n\nGood Luck!
