Post is nearly a year old , and the complaint was as a tenant being evicted through no fault of their own wether there was a clause that in those circumstances being held to term was not ‘legal’ .

As with many posts it morphed into something else , if you benefited from early avoiding ETC , by renewing a contract ,  that still had many months remaining , and then used the cooling off period not just to avoid the new minimum term , but to remove the contractual obligation of the original minimum term , then well done , but it’s not the norm.

 As already stated , if what you claim is everyones ‘right’  rather than a gesture of good will , it would render contracts pointless, someone could take a 24 month deal , after, 1 month  decide they don’t want to use the company anymore , call , recontract for 24 months again ( on some pretext ) then within the cooling off period , cancel , and not only does the ‘new’ 24 months not count , but the remaining months of the original term don’t count either .

I doubt  that will happen, but if it did for you , great .
