Hey guys,

I'm on NTLs student £19.99 a month package, im about 7 months through a 12 month contract. I was just wondering what the situation will be when i move home for the summer to a non-cabled area. I am not returning to the same address after the summer, will this mean i will be able to get out of the contract, since i am moving?

Thanks for any help.
David

If you are on the NTL Student contract then it is only 9 months and not 12.
You will, however, have to pay out the remainder of your 9 months.

No, as far as i was told it was a twelve month contract, not the nine month contract. The thing is though, i have never actually seen the contract or signed anything, was just wondering where that leaves me in terms of trying to slip out of it (obviously i don't want to pay for something i am not going to use!).

How did you get your services if you never signed anything? :confused:

you don't always need to sign anything, by agreeing to have the equipment installed and using you have agreed to the terms.

Well, if you agreed to a contract you were told was for 12 months you should have expected to pay for 12 months!

What package have you got for £19.99? If it is a student special then it will have been for 9 months (even if you were told 12).

Well i was told it was 12 months, but it is a student special. I know, i will pay if there is no way of getting out of it obvously, but its worth a try, will phone them up tomorrow, and see what the score is.

Ah well!

As Bob says, if you're paying the student rate, you have pretty good grounds for insisting the contract duration is 9 months, not 12. Don't just cave in when you phone them tomorrow. :)
