Orange contract - Is it binding?

nsabournemouth

I've been going through a dispute with Orange and would very much like to just walk away from the contract with no fees. I won't go through the whys with you, we'd be here for a long time discussing it.

After looking through my contract that was signed at CPW i noticed that there is a box that hasn't been ticked. The text next to the box simply says that

'I agree to the terms overleaf'

EE have said that they go on what CPW send them and if it is in correct I am to discuss it with CPW

As this box hasn't been ticked am I right in thinking that the contract is not enforceable?

Here's a link to a picture of the contract. The box is situated where my signature would be.

By using the phone and package I'd think that it would be deemed that you had accepted the contract and the associated terms

You don't always need to sign the dotted line and tick every box for there to be a contract

You enter into a binding contract whether or not a document is signed to prove it. Therefore I think you'd need to find a material term that you didn't agree to, and which Orange refuses to change, before you could get out of the contract.

Also it was an upgrade

Good point. So the OP would be bound by the terms of the existing contract, if not of the new contract.

Why upgrade in the first place?
You knew what Orange was like because you had been with them already

I also agree with everybody else that you used the package so you agree to pay for it.
