    Not all of us claim to be financial experts

    You don't have to be a "financial expert" to do a modicum of research BEFORE you sign a contract.

    Regional Sales Manager in the telecommunications sector. I'm not sure how that is relevant though. Please explain how it is.

    The simple answer is that you rushed into signing a contract without doing your research. now you want to have the benefits of the results of that contract without maintaining your obligations to the contract. A simple case of wanting your cake and eating it.
    Take the money that you got back and the learning form the experience. You are quids up at the moment, which is never a bad place to be.

    Why don't you employ a second company to sue the first company for mis-selling, then welch on that agreement as well? :p

    Buyer beware, do some research next time.

    Fair point mate but then someone charging you a few grand for a few phone calls in my book are lower than scum.

    I don't understand this comment.
    The company successfully carried out the task that you employed them to do and yet they are "lower than scum".
