Im basicly coming out of work soon due to long health issues, as il have a much lower income i cant really afford my £35 p/m, theres 10 months left on my 18 month contract.

T-Mobile want £220 to cancel my contract but if i can prove my ill health via a doctors letter will they let this slide?

Any help appreciated.
HUKD Sucks! :D

    they are not obliged to let you off any of your contractual obligations. However, you can appeal to the human side of anyone you talk to and explain your situation; they might let you drop down to a cheaper tariff.

    Worst case, as you are 8 months in, then your Ts & Cs might be the old ones and allow you to switch down after 11 months anyway.
    The thanks button is here to the right. If you find a post saves you money, gives you useful information, or you agree with it, take a second to thank the poster! :)
