Is there any way of reducing my bill?

93123

I'm on a 24 month contract with T-Mobile, 600 minutes, unlimited browsing and texts for £26 a month. I only got it for the internet as I was living in unstable accommodation where I couldn't get broadband for 6-12 months so I thought it was worth it but I've moved out and got broadband now. I don't use more than 30 minutes a month and no longer need the internet. I'd rather get rid of it and get normal talktime if and when I need it. Anything I can do to either get out of the contract (don't throw stones at me) or at least reduce my bill?

I think it very unlikely that you will be allowed to break your commitment. I think the best you can hope for is to change to a different tariff at the same cost, or if you are really nice, you might be able to get a gesture of g ood will. Perhaps a small discount.

You took a 24 months contract to get internet for 6-12 months and now no surprise don't want it? you could have got payg with unlimited internet for £10 a month and you would be home free now!

Presume you got an expensive phone in the deal, how does T-Mobile get that cost back if you don't complete the term?

I just hope other people read this and learn something, a contract is a contract for a reason. Unless you have really thought it through and looked fully ahead - never sign one.

And the meaning of "contract" is....

No disrespect to the OP but this is very much like groundhog day

Well, it didn't hurt to ask.... Reducing my bill didn't sound that extreme if I couldn't get out of it.

Sell the handset and put that towards the monthly cost, use a cheapo £10 PAYG one with your existing SIM.

Most companies will let you do a change of ownership where you can get a friend/family member to take over the contract for the remainder of it, why don't you do that?
