You can leave t-mobile for free, if the switch to 4g has affected your signal, as ee are switching some masts off if there are both tmobile and orange masts near each other. They will offer you 3 options a signal box, free early termination or 6 months half price line rental.

    Have you got a reference to this please? It was around 12 months ago but I was effected by just this (although on an Orange contract) and got nothing from Orange other than "you can terminate early if you pay off your contract"

    OFCOM won't deal with individual cases, it will be CISAS you need to go to.

    To go to CISAS you need a deadlock letter from the provider, which T-Mobile seldom issue or you'll have to wait 8 weeks after you first contacted T-Mobile with the issues and not managed to resolve it.

    The good thing though is that when T-Mobile don't issue you with a deadlock letter they're breaking the OFCOM guidelines so it is likely CISAS would additionally award compensation as a penalty to T-Mobile.

    Yeh they let me cancel for that reason, because they admitted they turned the mast nearest to my house off
