Help - want to get out of Primus contract

pmlindyloo

My husband has been offered (as a valued customer of 5 years) a deal from Vodaphone.

They are offering a Nokia 6303 (web enabled) with 900 mins per month to any mobile network plus unlimited text and landline calls. This is for £10 per month for 21 mths and then £25 for last 3 months. This is for any member of the family.

Seems like a good deal.

However, I have recently signed up for Primus Home Saver at £9.99 per month.(last month) Unfortunately I am out of my 14 day get out period although I have not received a bill.

Having read the terms and conditions it appears to be a 6 mth contract.
I am wondering if there is any way of getting out of this.

Could I default on the first payment? Would they end the contract then? Would there be penalties? Or am I stuck to the end of the contract?

Any ideas would be gratefully received.

This is for a second line which I would do without and just use the mobile for all my calls - am a very light user!

Their is no way of getting out of it, if you agreed to it and have been using the service.

If you defaulted it would of course affect your abilty to get credit in future.

If you look at T&C your see their is a cost for ceasing early.

12.3. Either party may terminate this Agreement by serving not less than 30 days written notice of termination upon the other party.
12.3 Primus shall be entitled to recover from the Customer all costs, losses and expenses incurred by Primus, including but not limited to the cost of removing provision of the Service from the Customer’s premises.
12.4 In the event of termination by the Customer under Clause 12.3 .prior to the expiry of the Initial Term, Primus shall be entitled to be paid immediately by the Customer an amount being equal to the fixed monthly Primus Home Phone package fee (for Carrier-Pre-Select and Line Rental) for each of the remaining months of the Initial Term which would have been paid by the Customer if the Initial Term had been completed. The fixed Primus Home Phone package monthly fee which will be used to calculate the amount due shall be the fixed Primus Home Phone package monthly fee chargeable to the Customer prior to notice of termination being received.

OMG - I'd forgotten about the default showing on my credit record - what a wally! Not a good idea.
Oh well, guess I'm stuck with it. Will probably take up the Vodafone offer and just use my land line for incoming calls.
Thanks for your help.
