Cancelling 02 Iphone contract

dr_jimmy

Hi Guys, hope you can help.

My brother recently split up with his long term partner but just a few weeks ago he bought her the Iphone with an 18 months 02 contract for £35 per month.

His partner is long gone and has left him with a phone and contract (it is in his name) which he does not need.

Is there any way out of this contact without paying up the entire £35 x 18 months?

Cheers in advance.
Jim

sorry but i think your brother is stuck with it.

Any chance he can sell the phone and put the money towards paying off the contract.

Sounds good. I'll hand deliver it to you in Nottingam. While I'm there you might as well take the contents of my wallet as well.

Can't blame a bloke for trying though can you?:cool:

Unfortunately the paperwork has all been signed and it would assumed he knew what he was signing into. The only possible saving grace would be if the phone "develops a fault" i.e battery life of less than a day, and is taken back to the retailer within 28 days, the contract could be cancelled under the sale of goods/statutory rights
