has this ever happened to any one? i received a phone to weeks gone monday. that i was sold over the phone i signed for it at the door, it aint been activated yet and i aint received a copy of my contract yet and im stumped.. i rang custumer services on the phone and they say i need to wait until i receive my contract and the phone will be activated with in 24hours... that was what "3" said. i don't even know who sold me the phone as i was doing a job at the time. what should i do?
panic? Try ringing the network again and explain your situation, you'll prob still get charged line rental tho, even if you havne't used it.
I've heard a few horror storys about 3 recently Did you get it from the one stop phone shop by any chance?
if you've had it over 28 days then no, all contracts have a cooling off period, send it back REGISTERED post so you have proof you've sent it, with a covering letter explaining why you don't want it - they may try to charge you a handling fee though (bastards) Good luck x x
ha, they're in crewe where i'm going to uni, have applied for a part time job there, me thinks they maybe a bit dodgy??
three are shit, my flatmate just got a phone with them and in three days he'd ran up a phone bill of £300 apparrently he'd been using in in about seven different countries, hahaha he shit it big time and had to cancel the contract and start another one.
My bloke got sold an 12 month contract by 3 they rang him when the 12 months were up asking if he wanted to upgrade to another phone which he did only to realise his 1st phone was contracted for another 6 months so he's paying 1 bills personally try and track who sold you the phone if you have no luck than cut a loss and cancel your direct debit
they cannot do fuck all within the law on a 'verbal contract' - say someone else ie sister/cousin ordered it for a joke, say it was em and you had nothing to do with it.... If you not happy and not getting anywhere, do writtten letter to em threating legal action over misconduct over cold calling! Cold calling is well offiside and wont stand up, tell em they need a written contract or fook off!
This has just happend to my sister, she was coming up to the end of her contract, a company claiming to be orange was like we are sending you your upgrade fone, but is was like an orange sub company, e-telecommunocations or something, now orange wont do anything to help her, keep hanging the phone up on her!!!!
better still get it opened all networks! as payas you go an put your own money on it ya laffin if thre silly for makeing you waite there own foult
